the reason it can’t find wider support is that it is in practice not detrimental to most circumcised peoples’ quality of life. as an issue it finds a home in masculinist grievance politics because it serves as the perfect metaphor for their sense that they have been permanently victimized and unprotected since birth.
Surveys show that ten percent of adults regret that it was done to them as a kid, and the number is getting bigger as people learn more about it. To me there’s no question: don’t do aesthetic surgery on unconsenting babies.
that’s the distinction he’s making on “pretty much all Western women” is where we get that from. He had his genitals cut, “we” don’t do that over here to girls.
i’m sure he doesn’t actually care about it as an issue other than to be racist.
Read the room, obviously child mutilation is wrong but comparing it to SA is some real MRA
I hate how a legitimate grievance has been hijacked by misogynist far-right assholes
Ya they’re fucking toxic and I deal with them all the time in the anti-circ movement.

in the screenshot he’s talking about FGM.
if anything he’s erasing SA
I don’t think so?
His entire account history seems to be so deeply misogynistic, that if anything he’d probably be pro-fgm just to make womens lifes worse

The guy is definitely racist, but again, his entire account history is hating women. His racism is secondary to his misogyni.
right, he doesn’t care about FGM he was just just using (the absence of it in the “west”) as a cudgel
