The Special Misogyny Reserved for Mothers https://nyti.ms/2RmHBjH Male sexual dysfunction not taboo but women's is? & women's from GIVING BIRTH? What kind of society are we? As a physician and mother these are crucial topics I address in the office regularly. Nothing taboo. #sex

viagra ads are on tv daily give me a break

Viagra is for symptoms. Do you endorse male genital mutilation as a practice? If not, please speak out against it. It is utterly barbaric and has no place in modern society, as we have already figured out about FGM. The effects are tremendously negative and damaging

I am Jewish. My sons were circumcised. I have also seen boys who were NOT circumcised get infections requiring circumcision later (when it is painful). Circumcision lowers the rate of HIV and other STD transmission. It is not without benefits.
-
That you would put FGM and circumcision in the same breath is astounding. FGM removes the clitoris. Circumcision does not remove the penis. Get over it.
-
Get over it? Really? Is that what you tell all victims of violent, nonconsensual baby-rape? Did you know that circumcision removes more tissue than the most common forms of FGM? And that the foreskin has at least 19 extremely important functions?

Male circumcision in the U.S. has fallen to just barely over half of new births in the past 30 years. You know what we *should* be talking about? How I can get a vasectomy w/o a referral or any lectures or pushback, but women are given hell over reproductive rights.
-
actually, when I had a vasectomy I was required to have my wife sign her consent.
-
that is unusual and a man without a spouse clearly would not need to do that. Certainly not required by law.

But we can’t talk about the forced cutting that happens only in boys 3,000 times a day. There are plenty of organizations openly opposing FGM. But nobody better talk about male infant circumcision.
Shhh! It’s “offensive.” #i2#circumcision#femaleprivilegeThanks. Twitter will use this info to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
