Answer 1

Notice that two of the most violence-prone peoples are the Middle-Easterners - Arabs, Jews, Palestanians? They all practice circumcision, which is a totally useless and medically unnecessary act. No one has a right to cut off any piece of my body without my permission. Infants cannot give permission for a useless, unnecessary and potentially dangerous removal of their foreskins.

Answer 2

i'm not clicking on it, sorry i am not brave. circumcision if done properly, i would call alteration, not mutilation. even then... it's still not right, how can it not be agianst law to remove a part of a person's body when thay arn't even old enough to make that choice? mutilations are the ones that happen to the young girls in some of the tribial villiages in Africa. when the girls are old enough to understand what is going to happen, they arn't infants. they have a voice and the words to say "no", but it just dosn't matter. they are held down by family (the ones who are suppose to protect you) as an elder preforms the female circumcision of the clitoris, usually with unsanitary tools, no anestesia, no follow up medical care if an infection follows (which happens alot) most "real doctors" would not do this, which means that the elder would have no medical knowledge before chopping up this precious future woman. uggghhh... i hear you, i respect your passion. it's just wronge to change a person agianst there will, male, or female.

Answer 3

It's a bunch of junk. There is nothing new since 2005. And their info is wrong and out of date. There is no real benefit to circumcising a baby. I don't understand why parents think they have the right to mutilate their sons. And, yes, it is mutilation.
Nature and God made boys as they are.
Only America has higher rates of circumcision. Most other countries don't circumcise their male offspring. And rates are actually declining here too. And also, a circumcised penis is less sensitive. The foreskin protects the head and protects the sensitivity, making sex more exciting and enjoyable.
I think it's barbaric. Once a man is grown or old enough to make up his own mind, well then, that's their choice.
Why is female "circumcision" such a taboo, but millions of baby boys are circumcised every day??

Answer 4

I don't think this site supports any such thing!! It's the people on the site who support and have points of view. As far as circumcision is concerned, there are differing points of view on the subject, all of which have some degree of validity. You make it sound much worse than it is. It is hardly "mutilation," any more than it is mutilation to have your tonsils out or your appendix removed. You are not even talking major surgery here. Cut the drama and deal with the facts.

Hope you agree.

Answer 5

Circumcision is a family choice and doesn't limit the Male's sexual performance nor ability to enjoy sexual relations. Now if you contrast that with female genital mutilation...male circumcision is not a big deal. Little girls are forced to have their clitoris removed along with much or all of the labia. Then are stitched together forming a tiny hole for urination and menstruation. Sex is excruciating and many women are cut or torn to allow the penis to enter.

Answer 6

Mutilation?! C'mon man. That's a stretch. It has good & bad effects (like many things) Would you say surgical removal of moles was mutilation?

Besides, if I wasn't circumcized at birth. I would have got it done as a teenager.

Answer 7

Mutilation? Circumcision isn't a bad thing. There are many benefits to it. I couldn't imagine not having it done to my son. He is 6 now and I can honestly say he has no adverse reaction or memory of it being done to him.

Answer 8

Male circumcision is completly different than female circumcision. Males in America are circumsized because of the hygiene factor, and it also doesn't interfere with their sexual pleasure. When a female is circumsized the clitorus is completly exposed, which can be highly painful for women when their clothing rubs against it, and especially during intercourse.

Answer 9

Lots of guys are circumcized and I'm sure none of them consider it to be mutiliation. That's something it's labled as to make it look cruel. I know a guy who isn't circumcized and he wishes he was because he feels that women aren't as attracted to his penis. I don't care either way, but when a society norm is circumcision, their years in the locker room will be a lot better if the foreskin is gone.

The site is silly.

Answer 10

well, I guess they can say what they want. I noticed right away that they siad the vast majority of North American men have been circumcised. But the truth is that 85% of the world's men are not. I guess if you are jewish, and it's part of your faith, then why not? But just for asthetics, it's pretty stupid. It just comes down to preference. Are you a turtle'neck or a crew'neck?
