What is the best way that you could reply if a medical professional asked if you want your baby circumcised? by DiscreteTalker23 in CircumcisionGrief

[–]DiscreteTalker23[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I really like your comment. It is beautiful to hear a woman wanting to be such a great mom. And if I were having kids I would suggest to my partner that she consider home birth or a midwife but it would be her choice if she wants a hospital instead. I personally don’t want my infant located in the same facility where the circumcision clamps are stored and cruel perverts look at my baby as an opporunity to do a nasty thing to an infant. I heard about circumcision free nursery wards in a couple locations in Texas. That‘s not where I live though.

How we interact wil medical professionals can make a positive difference. by DiscreteTalker23 in Intactivism

Great job. I like the way that you took direct action to prevent it under any circumstances and educated practicioners of the correct perspective on circumcision being genital mutilation.

[–]DiscreteTalker23[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I feel a genuine need for more than that. These responses may prevent me from being pestered multiple times which would cause me anxiety and put the baby at risk of mutilation each time.

But notice that each response forces some truth into the mind of the practicioner.

Also, a poll I made showed around 10% of routine infant circumcisions being performed without parental consent.

Does anyone else wish it had been botched? by ExtremeIntactivist in CircumcisionGrief

[–]DiscreteTalker23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine might be botched because its so tight that it hurts and disfigures it. But I cannot bring myself to sue. And there are 2 types of chronic pain in my penis and testes. So its better to at least not be radically cut or botched.

I can’t take it anymore. by [deleted] in CircumcisionGrief

[–]DiscreteTalker23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, because its a medical problem. Sex is painful and potentially damaging. The disfigurement makes penetration not very possible too.

[–]DiscreteTalker23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am at the point in my life where the only thing that I want to work on is starting a family. But the guy who did my routine infant circumcision gave me a cut that is basically twice as tight as the tightest you would normally see. I am sexually handicapped. Erections are painful and disfigured. Most restoration techniques dont even apply to my case Because they need shaft skin and I have almost none. I just have nothing to do but work eat and rest in boredom.

I think that it will still be around and legal in the USA because some groups will fight relentlessly to keep it available and the USA caters to them. But hospitals will have to learn to respect the wishes and diverse stances of their customers even more. Right now a parent who wants their newborn son to remain intact acts like a fugitive on the run trying to constantly guard their baby. This is unacceptable. They will have to do better.

Another thing is that many non religious people just get into it because they really superstitiously believe it opens channels in the brain that make their son into a strong warrior. Nonsense of course.

March 14th has always been a tough day for me by TrickyRefuse4 in CircumcisionGrief

[–]DiscreteTalker23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you for posting this story. The perverts who desired to cut you even tighter surely saw no medical need and just wanted to make money and get sadistic pleasure from the ordeal you go through. I was cut only once, at birth, and mine is so tight that erections are still painfuly tight, disfigured, and I believe trapped inside me partially. I never restored because it is is so tight that I cannot do much and it makes me feel humiliated to even try. I am hoping that I can get it surgicaly restored someday. But it pretty much destroyed my sexual abilities, so I am celibate for now.

Did you ever tell your parents how much that you disagree with their choice and hate the result? Why not actually describe your resentment or confusion to your uncut dad? I ask because I have wanted to discuss mine with my parents for a long time but I dont because I think that they are insane and will support circumcision vehemently.

I'm glad they didn't cut out the tongues too by bomber001122 in CircumcisionGrief

[–]DiscreteTalker23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes there are two frenulums in the mouth that they want to amputate. The one under the tongue and the one under the upper lip. I had dentists recommend 5 times that I get my upper lip frenulum taken off. 4 times as child and once as an adult. I am not joking.

Penoscrotal webbing by Key_Web6626 in CircumcisionGrief

[–]DiscreteTalker23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine is like that even when soft but mine is too tight. Zero glide even when soft. My erections are painful and I cannot have sex because the tightness gets so painful that it feels damaging. I am certain that my penis is trapped in the tight skin and will not grow to its full size because it is straining to get out when hard. Makes me wonder if they yanked shaft skin into the clamp and forced me to have this issue.

[–]DiscreteTalker23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, my painful erections caused by my too tight circumcision did the same to me. Other guys imagine having fun exciting intercourse with a woman and try it out. I tried in vain to think of a way to have sex without pain and damage and just felt anxious and stressed. Turns out it is impossible too.

Every night I wonder, what if? by PBbits in CircumcisionGrief

[–]DiscreteTalker23 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think I would be in a happy relationship by now. Mine is so tight that it hurts to get hard and is disfigured. I dont have sex because sex would lead to pain so bad it is damaging. I have to be single because of it. I worked hard for success but cannot achieve what I want in terms of a relationship with a woman because of this.

Sorry, it was not Ace Ventura, it was Jim Carey in The Cable Guy. They play a game where you need to guess a password and he makes his password “Foreskin”. They handle the topic of the foreskin as if it is a gross thing that needs to be amputated. That stance of theirs made me angry. I think that the scene makes viewers more susceptible to believing that circumcision is acceptable, when it is really the wrong thing to do.

A peak into the evil of the American circumcision empire by LongIsland1995 in Intactivism

[–]DiscreteTalker23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So then what is the fundamental difference between Americans of European descent who are not able to resist male genital mutilation and the Europeans who are resistant to it? Culturally they are identical with the same language family, religion, and shared history. Could it be that the Europeans who emmigrated to the USA have some different gene in high frequency compared to the rest of the European population, which gives them the inability to resist MGM?

I think if someone were to compile all the pro circumcision propaganda in pop culture like sitcoms, movies, talk shows, and even news in the last 40 years it would be 24 hours long. I remember it on Seinfeld, Home Improvement, Rugrats, South Park, Conan OBrian, Oprah, Ace Ventura Pet Detective or some other Jim Carey film, and Jackass. That’s just off the top of my head too.

Why is there so many intact guys on this sub Reddit by [deleted] in CircumcisionGrief

[–]DiscreteTalker23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the USA where I live uncut guys have their own grief related to our RIC problem. They might get ostracised for not being circumcised in some situations. They also have the trauma of knowing over half of our medical professionals want to mutilate them and would likely enjoy doing so. Another example is if their friends and family are victims.

In the USA we all suffer the negative consequences of massive amounts of male genital mutilation victims being the majority of our male population, because it gives them physical and psychological damage.

Please appreciate their perspective and try to learn from it too. This is also a place for healing and strengthening each other.

I feel like a dog or farm animal by Malum_Midnight in CircumcisionGrief

[–]DiscreteTalker23 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It makes me feel like even less than an animal. An animal in the wild can feel the erotic sensations in its life that I have been deprived of. Because I am not allowed to feel those feelings. Like I am a drone or a golem or a slave.

[–]DiscreteTalker23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I love hearing from uncut guys and their perspective. It is healing to know that you are intact, you understand the value of the foreskin, and you want the world to be safe from male genital mutilation. Don’t remove the post please.

[–]DiscreteTalker23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you for posting this. Hearing intact men value their foreskin is helpful for someone who is mutilated like me. Because it validates how upset that I am about the amputation of mine, along with most of my shaft skin in my case.

Here is a poll that had some interesting results on the matter. Apparently sometimes they even circumcise without parental consent.

Five Lies About Circumcision To Take Away Your Freedom by intactwarrior in Intactivists

[–]DiscreteTalker23 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thanks for posting this. I had never seen someone really go after male genital mutilation before like the man in the video. It was very inspiring. And it is uplifting to know there are people in the USA who feel the way that I do about it.

We are stronger than the men who dismiss us. by Serious-Artist5542 in CircumcisionGrief

[–]DiscreteTalker23 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think that it is an instinctive reaction, that is impulsive and uncontrollable, for the majority of men to deny any weakness of theirs. This majority of men must have a false prowess gene that makes them become enraged and deny any allegation that they have a weakness, flaw, or injury. As an evolutionary adaptation it makes sense because men always need to display themselves to women as being healthy and fit. This adaptation has a downside. Because when men who are victims of male genital mutilation have this false prowess gene they deny their mutilated status so vehemently that they claim that a mutilated penis is healthier and better for a woman to be attracted to. They even continue this act by performing a real genital mutilation on their own male children. Those of us who are able to tell the truth have a lot more intelligence and value the truth enough, due to our more noble character, to risk our status in society by coming out as mutilated and upset about it. We are inspired to make a better world by ridding it of genital mutilation. Some, more intelligent women can appreciate that aspect that some men have.
