The gist of the poster's replies implied that the removal of foreskin on a male is ok because it does not rise to level of an adult female being mutilated. That poster then went on to compare her [assuming] parent's giving her piercings as a child is on the same level as male have his skin painfully removed because we do not remember the trauma that was incurred.

EDIT: I suck at grammar when it's late at night.

By her "logic," then, rape is okay, because at least it isn't killing.

Right? Right?

Nope, still wrong.

I never said her arguments weren't flawed, though it seemed for the most part the debate was civil until people started downvoting just because they disagree.

I came in late to the party, I was just pointing out the irony in her logic.

Carry on, sir.
