    A man wants to know 'the difference between male circumcision and FGM'... The most important difference between male circumcision and FGM is the reasons behind the practices. Unlike FGM, male circumcision is not performed to decrease male sexual desire or drive! #ENDFGM #NOFGMpic.twitter.com/6do2JxTfkp

        Bullshit like this makes me want to not care about FGM. Foreskins have 20,000 nerve endings and are significant amount of the penis! MGM is worse than FGM. Change my mind.

        Bullshit! Yes, it is! MGM and FGM are both intended to reduce sexual pleasure and make people easier to control. Learn about John Harvey Kellogg and how he thought circumcision could help prevent masturbation.

        So you admit circumcision reduces pleasure but that's not the intent so it's a non-issue? It's total bullshit regardless. #ENDFGM #NOFGM #ENDMGM #NOMGMpic.twitter.com/KShl5C35mC

        This isn't ancient history BTW. These all come from http://Chabad.org . Many Orthodox Jews still do this. #ENDFGM #NOFGM #ENDMGM #NOMGMpic.twitter.com/2MCjoyr0vM

        Oh and do you think it really matters why these boys suffered this? It wasn't to reduce sex drive, just a sociopathic commitment to "proving your manhood." http://ulwaluko.co.za/Photos.html pic.twitter.com/E7Cwu7fBQT

        FGM isn't always done to control sexuality. That's a half-century old, horseshit radical feminist theory that you people won't let go of, because you're charlatans and cultists.https://aeon.co/essays/are-male-and-female-circumcision-morally-equivalent …

        There's no evidence the reason the Embera cut girls has anything to do with controlling sexuality or men play any real role in it, but I'm sure you'll find a way to blame it on men like you always do.https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2015/nov/19/colombia-embera-female-genital-mutilation-mystery-myth-misgiving …

        Might be surprising, bt you can't reduce the "why" of millenia-old practices that existed across various cultures, to a simple tweet with 2 "reasons" and a pic you pull from your ass. Many reasons exist for these practices, but none should override the right 2 body integrity.
