Severity of anatomical loss and behavior of other "Intactivists"

In the United States, there are many men with a radical amount of their foreskin amputated in infancy.

I wouldn't be surprised if there were 50+ million men that were cut to a CI-2 and below with partial or full frenulum/frenular delta loss.

In case you didn't know, the entire inner foreskin, not even just the frenulum, can be stimulated alone to orgasm. It's so obviously part of the core sexual sensory tissue on a man's penis that it defies all reason how it could have even been seen differently. We should be looking at the surface area of the glans and the inner foreskin as similarly important in terms of sexual sensory sensation.

It's more than reasonable to be utterly distraught over this anatomical loss.

We are left with scars halfway down our shafts, a majority of the highly erogenous inner tissue amputated, all the mucosal membranes exposed, and a taut, immobile skin system. It's ghoulish and morbid how sexually disabling this reality is for many of us.

It's wildly unacceptable how even in these spaces we are being gaslit and diminished by other "Intactivists". We need to start coordinating and mobilizing around how to combat these people.

Foreskin amputation of children is an unfathomable atrocity and there are men who are going to suffer terribly their entire lives over this. These communities and the larger public better get used to us.

The publicly available video/photographic evidence that some Intactivists have witnessed paints a very grim picture of the degree of trauma that infants experience during this violent mutilation of their penis. In many instances, the victims of this were genitally mutilated with little to no local anesthetic and suffer for weeks afterward from early infancy penile trauma. For most men who were genitally mutilated as infants, this is the most traumatic and severe trauma of their lives happening during a critical time of physiological and neurological development.

This is radically severe sexual battery of a juvenile and all logic and reason would lead one to believe that this can result in a range of long term psychological and psychosexual consequences in many instances.

To the men that run their mouth in pain and suffering, I want you to know that I'll stand by your side to the final breath. I know this prison you're in. We can strive to heal but still be suffering in a devastating way.

The "intactivists" that trivialize and diminish you are outright unsympathetic fools that have no business being here.

Video of AZ Regret Mother who was present for the procedure later shares footage of her son’s recovery. This is what “they didn’t know any better” looks like

Rare find here from a deleted series of posts, showing that even in the mid-2020's RIC is ongoing while declining. An older millennial mom took her first son in to get circumcised at a pediatric clinic. She was in the room for it and said she’d never heard him scream like that. It shook her.

Later that night she’s holding him while he’s asleep in her arms and his breathing is all labored and stressed. This infant already went through hell and he’s going to be dealing with the pain for weeks.

I just finished the POTS interview where u/cartersteinhoff talks about how people infantilize the mothers in these situations. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZSdmYNMs6o It’s one thing to talk about “they don’t know any better,” but watching her go through with it with no real critical-thinking amazes me.

The post was deleted from the IG mom's account due to shame, she regrets what she did.

I honestly didn’t get the infantilization critique until I saw this. That’s why I think this needs to be shared more. A lot of people still default to the soft version of the story where parents are just confused or misled. Footage like this cuts through that. It describes the decision, the infant suffering, and the aftermath all in one place. If it opened my eyes the way it did, it can do the same for others who are still stuck in the excuses.

My father is a hypocrite

My father works in healthcare, and I needed to tell a story for a university research project—specifically, a powerful, compelling life story. My father knew of several, but he told me he couldn't share them because the victims wouldn't want the details made public. I insisted he at least try, but his reply left me stunned. He told me that I would never talk about the surgery I had on my penis, which made me wonder: why did he decide I should have that surgery when he knew it would be humiliating for me? Phimosis surgery isn't a matter of life or death; the decision to undergo it should have been mine. Being forced to undergo genital mutilation at age eight caused a trauma that I still carry with me—and will carry until the day I die. I’m twenty-two years old, I’m terrible at sex, and I’ve never had a girlfriend.

Circumcision is Worse than Rape

Title and water is wet.

This should be obvious. The systemic elective invasive penetrative amputation procedure into children's genitals based on gender identity is worst-of-the worst. It's worse than any one off act of violence.

If theres two things people get worked tf up over, it's identity based violence and anything that impacts the sexual welfare of children. Circumcision hits the nail on the head for both, rape does not.

Let's get an actual interesting take. How's about circumcision is worse than the George Floyd incident. Now we're talking, that should ruffle some feathers.

George Floyd had the privilege of onlookers shunning the systemic violence. The whole world rallied to his side. For me, my entire family gathered around and celebrated my childhood identity based sexual violence. I wish I had the privilege of anyone watching and caring.

The world still celebrates my oppression. That's why circumcision is worse.

Just a Snip

One theme I keep seeing regarding men's issues is the diminishment. You may think this post title was made about circumcision - and it certainly pertains to it. I know you've seen the pro-cutting fetishists refer to it as "just a snip". But I actually was inspired to write this based on vasectomies. I cannot tell you how many times I see vasectomies referred to as "just a snip". Women (it's always women) belittling, mocking, and diminishing men who aren't "man" enough to get a surgical procedure for their benefit. And every single time, there is ZERO mention of post-vasectomy pain risk.

This "small snip" can leave a man with debilitating, life-altering pain for the rest of his days. How often is this discussed in these circles pressuring men? How often are they given the FULL scope of disclosure by these so-called medical professionals that claim to have their best interests at heart?

I find this seemingly unrelated medical procedure so indicative of just how belittled and diminished men's issues really are by every facet of society. Domestic violence against men? Mocked, questioned, and silenced. Statistics thrown about even as they fail to see how those very DV rates are influenced by their campaign to shut out any men seeking justice. I myself suffered DV from an abusive partner and gave up reporting it because of how utterly biased the Australian government and police are towards men. Did you know the only male-specific resource in Australia for DV is a self-report line where men are supposed to turn themselves in as abusers? It is literally inconceivable to them that men could ever be a victim.

Again and again, the hits keep on coming. We are burnt up and ground to dust by a capitalist system that does not give a solitary fuck about us, our happiness, or even our own bodily autonomy. We are reduced to "snips" and other life-altering procedures like fucking livestock. Never given the opportunity to advocate for ourselves, from our very first 24 hours of life. We are asked to fall over ourselves in service to the women in our lives and the families we are obliged to create, even as those very same people robbed us of our very own bodily integrity for their own sick fetishes and cosmetic preferences.

Men are truly are the "L" gender. "Just a snip", indeed.
