I’ll start, I missed the outdoor cats struggle session so i don’t know what its deal was except a vague idea that outdoor cats were bad, so I’ve let my two cats stay being outdoor cats because I feel bad locking them inside, like I want to give them some experience of freedom to go where they please so they can live more fulfilling lives
Edit: also kruschev is imo a lot better than most hexbear users give him credit for
Permanently cutting off a body part (especially such a sensitive one, especially on a literal baby) without consent or medical necessity is bad, there’s no good argument against that.
The best argument I’ve heard for circumcision in general is hygiene, but like, just pull your foreskin back and wash well, it’s not that hard.
Also reminder that it’s only a thing in America because the Kellogg’s cereal guy thought it would stop masturbation, which it doesn’t even do.
And now the most contentious part:
I feel like most defenders just can’t accept that their dick got messed up for no good reason. Which yeah, it must suck, but don’t do it to others because it was done to you.

My dad said this lol. But my mom was a crystal loving weirdo hippie at the time and refused to allow it, and thank god for that.
(I feel almost bad posting this because 99/100 times my dad was the better parent.)

Never really thought about it, but you’re right. I think its because I accidentally saw my dad’s dick once and saw his lack of foreskin and asked my mom about it or something? Can’t remember.

No its a completely natural reaction and I completely agree with it. I’d probably go harder on my dad for it if he hadn’t been a earnestly good parent most of the time.
Yeah, that argument is bull. It’s just flat out not a real thing.
I remember hearing once that circumcision reduced the transmission of HPV, but even if that’s true, there’s a vaccine for that now.
