To see how many are ill-informed.  ;)
So you support chopping off the breasts of healthy girls, castrating children and the mutilation of children?

Did you see the response to that question? It was from someone ill-informed. I hope by now he educated himself.  :)

Now he’s informed by the ill?

So you support...
I support helping children and young adults. I know some can see past the bubble, but I expect that.

Just because you see the shiny translucent markings of a bubble when you look at me, it's completely possible that if you would look a little higher you would see that the bubble arcs around over yourself...

I will take it as you approve of mutilating male babies. Now shall we discuss this honestly?

It is possible but highly unlikely.

You don't vax your children?

Conflating circumcision - which is a great health benefit that many non-Jews choose - with the surgeries discussed in this thread is moving goalposts in a grand way

What it is doing is pointing out the dishonesty in these comments.

If you have respected medical professions or institutions to back up your claims, then please post them.

You can discuss if circumcision is helping or hurting male babies without calling it mutilation of male baby's genital.
When it comes to something thousand times more important everyone loses their mind.

Except many see it as mutilation but you happen to disagree, so you call the comparison dishonest.

Does anyone here know a transgender person IRL?
I know a biological male who as a teen had what would now be called dysphoria including dressing in female clothes. He got no help or intervention at all and is now delighted that he wasn't led down that road.

if many ppl see taking a haircut to be the same as chopping off ur head, doesnt make it be that way
whoever doesnt feel that way just "happens to disagree"???

Last time I checked your hair grows back.  ;)
My point is that having an approved medical procedure done should not be called mutilation.
You can't have an honest discussion when one side keeps yelling mutilation with nothing to back it up.
I have been gentle in my response to constant attack on me claiming I support mutilation. Don't expect that to continue.

approved by who? by "science"? by fauci?

doesnt need to be backed up, for goodness' sake if a vital limb, which is critical for purposeful use is chopped off, deeming the person incapable of performing necessary acts, that is mutilation.
im embarassed that such obvious facts must even be stated
I have been gentle in my response to constant attack on me claiming I support mutilation. Don't expect that to continue.
i have no idea if u support it for real, or u just enjoy toying with retarded ideas.
either way ur lack of continuing to be gentle doesnt really sound that scary

Retarded? Here we go again.
In some cultures, they mutilate a newborn male not for medical reasons but for some insane ritual. That is sickening.
approved by who?
Every major respected medical profession/institution. Of course, that is meaningless to the mutilation crowd.
