    Real men never would have had their infant son mutilated.

    If my parents would’ve done such a thing, they’d be history. Unless they would be IQ80 or so, then they couldn’t have known better. An explanation, not an excuse though.

        Those too, of course. But it’s parents that both think that infant genitile mutilation sounds plausible. Especially when it’s only done by cults…and US-Americans. How can end up at such a decision for their oh-so-loved newborn?

        I remember a vet telling a friend that “uteroectomy drastically lowers the chance for cancer in the uterus” in their dog. Because it’s expensive. Sounds like “teenager pregnancy drastically falls after the age of 20” :-)
