    They’re trying to say it isn’t mutilation by saying that it is occasionally necessary medically.

      Lemme help you out here buddy

      @Eleazar@sh.itjust.works made the incredibly transphobic and apparently popular argument that all bottom surgery is genital mutilation.

      @such_lettuce7970@kbin.social replied to them, saying that they dont consider the bottom surgery they recieved to be genital mutilation.

      @Eleazar@sh.itjust.works made the incredibly offensive comment that yes, actually, such_lettuce7970 was mutilated.

      @RobertOwnageJunior@lemmy.world replied saying that sometimes bottom surgery is medically necessary, implying that when it is medically necessary, it’s wrong to consider it mutilation.

      Then you called him a fucktard for some unfathomable reason.

      @irmoz@reddthat.com said that you read their comment wrong, because you still assume they’re talking about infant circumcision.

      Did this help?

        Thank you, yeesh. This is possibly the dumbest comment section I’ve ever seen on here. And yes, Eleazar is a transphobe, who quite ironically was arguing a week ago that homophobia, in Florida, amongst christians like themself, is rare and unpopular. Even if I bought that (I don’t and it feels like a classic “as a gay man” moment), it always makes my head shake when people are seemingly offended at being accused of homophobia, then turn around and go “oh, but those transes though, yeah fuck them”.

        Paging @Eleazar@sh.itjust.works for clarification. Trans surgery, or just circumcision?

          Eleazar is a transphobe. They said in no uncertain terms that they believe all bottom surgery, not just infant circumcision, is mutilation.

            What a peach. Never thpught I’d meet an actual equal opportunity bigot. I guess being anti circumcision is a great cover for anti semitism.

          Apparently even the hysterectomy I had that also treated medical problems is mutilation. Apparently my doctor mutilated me into a life of less pain.

            Hahaha, what? That’s absurd. Eleazar said that? What a loon. Congrats on the hysterectomy and I hope you enjoy its benefits for a very long time.

              Yep, it falls under genital surgery, which they think is all mutilation and should be illegal. And thanks, it’s been wonderful, evicting that bastard has been amazing. Not needing narcotics has been wonderful.

      Circumcision isn’t mutilation. That’s a fact. Infant circumcision to appease a sky fairy or to fit in with your neighbours? Yeah that’s mutilation.

        That’s a fact.

        No it isn’t. A lot of people are victims of disinformation and “willingly” agree to a circumcision later in life as an easy solution to something like phimosis only to discover how much harm it does.
