I spent this election period in Canada reading the news both in French and English. Every time I read the word "circonscription" in the French version, my brain would read it as "circumcision" and I'd get really confused. I'm glad it's over now.

can i sue the doctor that did my circumcision in 1989 for not finishing the job?

i have been joking that their plan is for your kids to grow up to work in a textile mill but they are serious

the anti circumcision bros are gonna have a field day with this one

IDK sound like something a bad take on circumcision would say.

i’m shocked the Andrew Yang 2020 campaign didn’t have an anti-circumcision policy

Kabbalah: “Circumcision of the heart means removing the kelipot—shells that hide the divine light—from the righteous, who are the divine penis. The kelipot are the foreskin of the heart.”

It's not the only evidence that this line of attack is fake and unprincipled, but the reality that the people decrying gender affirming care for minors as "mutilation" have never said a word about circumcision - performed on days-old infants - is telling that all of their rhetoric is theatrical.

This was the rare occasion where I started a search with one question in mind but ended up with so many others.

shit I'm gonna delete later.... How much of America's problem is the genital mutilation so many people with penises get as infants? Going their whole lives without feeling the full extent of their potential pleasure? Fucked up weaponization of what should be a pleasure organ. Dunno, y'all.

To be clear, if you get a circumcision because of religious obligation as an adult.. Uh. Okay. Sure. But why are we making that choice for babies?

do i lose my uncircumcised privilege when i get bottom surgery?

I filed my comment. Since the tenor of the times suggests they'd ignore that trans people are human, I leaned on the fact that insurance companies weaponize incompetence & will classify any surgery they can as "sex change" to deny payment. Need a circumcision fixed? Breast reduction? Sex-change.

(Breast enhancement, gals? Must be trans women. Breast reduction? You're a trans man. Want a foreskin repair? You're a trans man. Need a circumcision for foreskin misbehavior? Trans woman. YOU KNOW INSURANCE COMPANIES WILL DO THIS. You will have to fight! CANCER PATIENTS will have to fight them!)

Getting a second opinion on my circumcision

GALDEF offers 6 questions that should be answered by courts talked with considering the equal protections challenge to Oregon's genital mutilation law. Do you think all children should be protected from unwanted, irreversible genital changes? #Law #LGBTQIA #Equality #Circumcision #FGM

My mom was telling me about these anti circumcision protesters they saw in D.C. this weekend. one of which had a sign that said "no one wants less penis" And she said to my dad "well, except juni" Is my family too close. Is this weird. 🤷‍♀️ oh well. I thought it was fucking hilarious

The anti circumcision people are back. I haven't seen them since the Nats were in the World Series.

I think it is also a cultural fact: here in Italy no amab children are circumcised except for religious reasons or serious health needs, and periodically there are debates on whether or not circumcision should be compared to mutilation, so it is not usually an issue.

Fascinating. Circumcision rates are yet another way Pacifica is different from the rest of America.

In an effort to address the gap in research on the age-related cognitive decline of post-menopausal African women with female genital circumcision (FGC), this narrative review affirms the, "urgent need to bring this understudied group into ageing and dementia research." doi.org/10.3389/fgwh...

Today at 10 am in Portland's Pioneer Courthouse Square, Intact Global announced a lawsuit seeking equal protection for boys from genital cutting, AKA routine infant circumcision. Oregon law protects girls from the practice, but not boys. The brief is at cdn.prod.website-files.com/66119b8c4d0c... ...

Thank goodness I'm not having any! But yeah, the whole circumcision element is wild to me, honestly. It barely makes a difference in the grand scheme of things, there's no actual benefit! Outside of religious reasons, it gained traction simply to stop dick havers from masturbating 😤

#FetusEqualsForeskin ALL ABORTION LAWS ARE UNCONSTITUTIONAL. FORCED CIRCUMCISION IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL. ALL OF THIS CAN STOP IF SOMEONE WILL FUCKING LISTEN TO ME. I DIDN'T GET SOBER FOR THIS. MY HEART HURTS, FUCKING LISTEN TO ME.

Fred Trump's doctor, to accidentally-on-purpose get the circumcision oh-so-wrong!

FYI, that dad had to sign a surgical consent for his son to be circumcised unless he was not married to the mother at the time. Nobody wanders around hospitals circumcising babies without consent. You want to sue someone, sue your parents cuz they're the ones that consented.

A father and son who were both circumcised at birth announce a lawsuit against the state of Oregon.

It’s cool that a lawsuit about this is coming about but the argument isn’t that interesting or nuanced. Circumcision was brought about by religious fanatics to downregulate male sexual pleasure. Replace foreskin with cutting a baby girls clitoris and that realization is how you should be feeling.

Oh yeah, I guess so- let me just edit the convo to me popping in and you guys discussing circumcision.

circumcision was the default practice for like, 20-30 years or something in the US? perhaps longer, even, but that's what colors perception

Circumcision is Violation

I've done over 20 years of body autonomy work getting legislation passed for breastfeeding mothers, and advocating for the end of circumcision for infant boys. Men are ALWAYS the ones standing in the way of my advocacy work. I point out the problem and you're mad at me? Laughable.

Oregon laws that forbid genital cutting of girls but stay silent on male circumcision must be expanded to equally protect all children, a new lawsuit asserts. LET'S FUCKING GO OREGON! GET YOUR HANDS OFF KID'S GENITALS! www.oregonlive.com/health/2025/...

the gleeful snake behind this abomination..

He reminds me of a circumcision gone wrong.

A father and son are suing Oregon, calling infant circumcision a violation of rights. They argue boys deserve the same protection as girls. We agree! Bodily autonomy for all. Read more:

In high prevalence areas voluntary adult male circumcision reduces the risk of acquiring HIV through sex by up to 60%. This has been proven in multiple clinical trials & implemented in East + South Africa as a strategy to reduce new HIV infections. It is not a scam. www.npr.org/sections/goa...

I think the Council of Jerusalem pretty firmly establishes that whatever the movement is, it's no longer located entirely within Judaism. Apparently there were instant debates about what the council actually requires, but it's clear that at least circumcision isn't a requirement

Infant circumcision is violence, not medicine.
