The WHO doean't support this, and I've lived and worked in medicine all over Africa. You teach them and support them with better self-care, not encouraging genital mutilation. No matter how much shit you sling at the wind, you can literally accomplish this by educating people to wash their dicks.

Refute my challenge you ignored. I never consented to being circumsized and I was circumsized for the same reason. Justify to me how my bodily autonomly wasn't violated as a baby when someone cut off a piece of my penis.

I want to hear your armchair quarterback mental gymnastic bullshit since we're actively trying to teach people all over Weat Africa to just wash your dick.

It doesn't. You can have this sort of bruising for all sorts of reasons.

He still probably did have a stroke though.

There is zero biological reason to remove foreskin. It's objectively mutilation.

I'm circumsized. I did not give anyone permission to remove a part of my penis that was perfectly healthy when I was an infant and could not consent. I want you to quantify to me how I was not done wrong, and how my bodily autonomy was not violated. I understand that isn't the case in the article, but it's the perfect example for you to argue.

Also, just because a culture or religion does something doesn't mean I have to support it, and it definitely doesn't make me a bigot to oppose it. Iran will stone women to death under Sharia Law. Am I a bigot for saying stoning women is bad?

It's not bigotry to be opposed to genital mutilation.

I say we accept our fate and pollute as much as we can to speed run through global warming right to the next ice age. Get us all frozen to death and the planet can do mastodons again.

The real silver lining of them wanting to start being able to deport American citizens is if they do it en masse, El Salvador will end up full of physicists, doctors, professors, etc and be catapulted into a futuristic utopia.

No matter what you say poop is touching you right now on the inside.

I can definitely believe a senator from Alabama is this stupid.

So that if it rolls out to the crowd to crush and kill a family Indy will look way cooler. And look, it worked. That guy and his compressed spine look cool as fuck.

It was more access and versatility of fats, as well as overall caloric intake. To note too, I'm a pretty unique case in this and not a good example anatomically/physiological relative to the norm. I walk around at about 125 naturally, and I'm 5'9. I fought at flyweight (125) pounds, so even though in day to day life I'm a very small guy, I was hillariously considered monstously huge in my weight class.

I'm 37 now, and I still have an insanely high metabolism and look the same. The issue I ran into in a nutshell is this was back in 2009ish, so access to a lot of alternative fats and proteins was considerably less, and with my freakish metabolism it was at the time extremely expensive.

I was also only twenty so there is a very fair to real chance I was also just a fucking idiot.
