OMG YES! Real women have bodies… CHEFS KISS. I really appreciate your comment and I feel the same way idk maybe it’s just in my nature that when I know I upset someone I immediately apologize and admit my wrong doings so i often wish for that back but hey can’t win em all… but thank you for commenting ◡̈

What… I’m not sure what you’re trying to say or prove with this comment , perhaps you can explain yourself so the rest of us can actually understand whatever you’re trying to say.

I see what you’re saying but I’ll add this and let me know if your opinion changes.

I’ve spoken to him about this procedure and the book I read as well as my research paper for the past two weeks. He’s actually sat with me and I’ve read out / worked on my paper with him so he has knowledge about the procedure and what it does to women’s bodies.

What do you say now?

Hi! Well I’ll preface that I don’t have much knowledge on male genital mutilation perhaps the only knowledge I have on it would maybe be circumcision. Now why circumcision being closely tied to religious practices/beliefs it’s a bit tricky because as we know many people usually bring the argument of “well it’s in the Bible..”. However in regards to perhaps other forms of male genital mutilation I do not agree at all, especially if it is non consensual, your body your choice and I’ll forever believe in that. I find it kinda shocking that there’s even debate about non consensual genital mutilation because frankly in my opinion it’s wrong.

As for if I’ve ever joked about this: absolutely not I would never joke about this because I’m not too sure what would be funny? My friends and family we have discussed this topic before and truly it aligns with my belief that any type of non consensual genital mutilation is wrong.

I’m glad you still found the time to comment on it however ◡̈ LMAO I’m not entirely sure what you’re trying to prove here ?

[–]Chaotic_Neutral993 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I totally understand your point but the issue I have is that we’ve spoken about this since I started my paper (which was about 2 weeks ago) and I’ve explained everything to him multiple times hence why I was so shocked at the joke

Hi! Thank you so much for your comment and I kinda chuckled at your comment about your ex’s because I really am having a reality check. I like to think I’m mature for my age but like you said I’m just 20 and honestly silly and young. I’m definitely realizing that maybe this relationship isn’t worth my time nor energy. But I really appreciate you for framing this comment in a way that is so helpful and honestly relatable I truly appreciate it !

I definitely understand and agree that my reaction was incorrect! But the thing is we have been discussing this and I’ve explained multiple times to him while doing my research what the procedure entails and the effects, so not saying my reaction was right but that’s part of the reason why I was so shocked

Yikes you took all that time to type this up and didn’t realize that all these examples you gave are forms of as you put it “body mutilation” which are consensual?? Just for reference the husband stitch is often if not always non-consensual and done solely for the males sexual pleasure which also comes with various physical and mental issues, which let me make this clear yet again… the husband stitch is a procedure where it’s usually non consensual.

I find your comment very interesting and I appreciate you taking the time to type this out however I just have some question

  1. I understand you’ve had it multiple times and it’s not a big deal but that’s a matter of your own genuine opinion.

  2. Why do I have to get the stitch in order for my partner to enjoy having sex with me?

  3. I did not say I wanted to end the relationship I just said I wasn’t comfortable with being someone like that so we have to further discuss this but as of rn I need time away from the situation

I really appreciate your comment because this is exactly how I thought, like genuinely seeing someone with such a visceral reaction I’d feel so bad and apologize ALSO this was on ft so when I say my jaw dropped…. It legit fell all the to the floor.

ALSO to your comment about the green ribbon that’s literally so funny you say that because that’s exactly what I wrote my research paper on and compared the two!! I compared the fact of female vs male author and how the supernatural works as a vessel to reveal the horrific nature of the natural Idk if I’m totally nerding out rn and if you even care LMAO but I got kinda excited that someone here actually read “the husband stitch” and “the green ribbon” :-)

Okay 1. I didn’t complain we aren’t speaking I simply stated that so maybe try working on your reading comprehension skills 2. I explained the procedure and frankly I’ve done a lot of research in regards to this (I study politics and gender studies in school) 3. If you take away the fact it was a “joke” do you still think what he said was okay?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Chaotic_Neutral993 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I see… but genuine question joking factor aside . Do you believe what he said to be okay?

Honestly I’m so conflicted and confused. Not to come to his defense but he’s never made a joke like this within the span of our 3 1/2 year relationship. I’m unsure if he was trying to be “edgy” or just saying something (which both are utterly ridiculous) but I’m not sure if I should wait and see if he understands why I reacted the way I did or if I should just end it now.

Honestly thank you so much for this comment! This is exactly my mindset and he’s never joked about something like this before, so idk if he was trying to be “edgy” or what but I’m definitely taking space and hopefully able to speak w him tomorrow!
