Has circumcision made anyone else misogynistic?

I've found myself becoming more and more misogynistic as time goes on. Every time I see a mother talking about "her" choice to circumcise her son, every time I see a woman saying we need to circumcise because it protects women, every time I see a woman saying intact penises are ugly, every time I see a woman saying she would only sleep with a circumcised man, I grow to hate women more and more. My mother was the person who chose my circumcision and she has admitted it was entirely cosmetic. I'm gay so I don't even have to pretend that women are worthy of respect like straight men do.

I don't like that I've become this hateful person, all it would have taken for me not to go down this rabbit hole of hatred would be for my mother to have loved me enough to leave me intact. Instead I was mutilated for the benefit of women in a society that teaches men to be grateful to be mutilated for the sake of women, while lying to us that men are the privileged sex, despite women having complete control over whether or not we get to keep our full genitals.

How do we convince feminists like this that bodily autonomy should apply to everyone

Found this gem on Quora and seriously, how do we convince this kind of feminist that bodily autonomy isn't a finite resource and that the fight for bodily autonomy should include EVERYONE and that no one should be left behind? Apparently bodily autonomy is a finite resource and to give it to one group it must be taken from another.

Apparently saying men should ALSO have bodily autonomy means women should die

Stumbled on this gem of a conversation on Quora. Apparently wanting the fight for bodily autonomy to include the bodily autonomy of men means you want girls and women to die.

Bodily autonomy must be some super finite resource that can only be given to one group by taking it away from another, and you'd never suggest fighting for bodily autonomy for everyone unless you secretly wanted to take it away from someone else.

I have a really stupid question

If modern diesel locomotives and DMUs are just a massive diesel generator attached to electric motors, why is acceleration so much slower for diesel locomotives and DMUs than for electric locomotives and EMUs that get their power from overhead lines? Electricity is electricity, why does it coming from a diesel generator seem to make so much of a difference? And given that diesel trains are essentially just electric trains with big diesel generators, is there anything that can be done to have them match the performance of an electric train?

The only thing I remember from my Patriarchal Blessing (was I SA'ed by my Patriarch?)

I added a content warning for SA because honestly, I'm wondering whether or not I was SA'ed by my Patriarch. I can't remember a single thing that he said during the blessing, because the entire time all I could focus on was that he was leaning so close to me that I could feel his genitals pressed up against my back. I could feel their warmth (and they were surprisingly warm). His suit pants were apparently very thin material. I don't believe I felt him get an erection though.

Am I safe in assuming that the standard practice is to "leave room for the Holy Spirit" between the Patriarch and the person receiving the blessing?

I honestly don't know if he was trying to do anything sexual, but I sure as hell was uncomfortable the entire time.

I am a male if that makes any difference.

Seriously, it seems like every notification I get from this group is about earthquakes... We get it, this is an earthquake prone area.
