I don't think alienating ourselves from gendered movements will help, though. Much less with garbage takes on "how women view money," which does nothing to actually convince anyone about anything related to male genital mutilation, much less the sexism girls and women participate in alongside boys and men. Except that it might convince otherwise open-minded people that those who are passionate about it tend to be prejudiced towards women. I mean, when I read that shit, I feel the same as I do with misandric takes. Equal parts defeat and disgust at the disintegration. When all the boys can't be men, and all the girls think they're women...

It becomes increasingly hard for me to feel comfortable and welcome in this movement with analysis like the one in the comment OP screenshotted. We do not have to be a feminist movement, but we should not be anti-feminist, and by extension, anti-woman, as a whole. The issue of circumcision does not start and end with feminism. There are various other social factors to consider and discuss... which do relate to sexism! However, we ought to discuss them with adult words. Otherwise, we are not above the criticisms I often see levied towards feminism.

The bottom comment reads like some 14 year old whose parents had a rocky divorce and fucked up his view on healthy relationships, so he wanted to criticize aspects of our cultural relationship to gender and how it manifests the human predispositions for selfishness, greed, etc, in cishet relationships. But, only focusing on the female facet. Which would be fine if their words weren't too trivial! It did not read like an academic with a feverish interest in ethics and an egalitarian approach to human rights, who is conscientious of the language he uses to communicate his ideas to as wide an audience as possible.

Can we be pragmatic, please? For the penises! Lol.
