Once you got old enough, they're both pretty cute.

It is my lifelong dream to own a Lilac colored Scottish Fold.

But they're expensive cats. I can never justify paying money for a cat.

Well, my lifeling drea



Oh, just finish the joke yourself. You'll do a better job anyway.

This really starts to rock at around fifteen minutes: There's no place as dangerous as "safe."

"some families who have immigrated here from countries that still practice circumcision are intent on bringing their American-born teenage girls in line with customs back home. They are accomplishing this by sending their daughters on vacations that are about helping "them connect with their families and traditions," "

"Fifty years ago, it was almost a certainty that healthy baby boys in the United States would be circumcised at birth. Rates of infant circumcision in 1960 hovered near 90 percent ... some areas now see fewer than 50 percent of their boys being circumcised
... our national affinity for circumcision stands nearly alone among the developed nations
... estimated 80 percent of males in the world are intact
... "Removing it is technically only a cosmetic procedure," Garrett says, "one that is no longer covered by Medicaid, and we typically don't perform cosmetic procedures without first gaining the person's consent."
... in general, the more educated parents are, the less likely they are to choose it.
... "I expect the downward trend of circumcision to continue," Garrett said.

Meanwhile in Africa, where the World Health Organisation is pushing circumcision onto unsuspecting locals:

"Twenty-three initiates have died since the start of the winter initiation season because of botched circumcisions, and 104 others have been admitted to hospitals for related injuries"

Hey Lobster! Are you still pretending that your goofy friend from Harriman, Tennessee is "a scientific journal"?

Because if you are, I think that makes you a ninny-man. Or ninny-woman, depending, though we might be surprised if anyone did.

PS- You're an asshole for pretending male and female circumcision are even conversationally contiguous topics. A naive, dimwitted fuckhead.

I wanna be clear about that.

Right, cutting off perfectly healthy sections of infant male genitalia is nothing at all like cutting off perfectly healthy sections of infant female genitalia.

Circumcised men are '4.53 times more likely to suffer Erectile Dysfunction':

In addition to Erectile Dysfunction, circumcision is also associated with premature ejaculation:

Maybe that's why Crid seems so angry.

A strange tale, which goes like this:

- Young lady learns she's been awarded a merit scholarship to attend UConn.

- Two years later, young lady finds out she's actually been awarded a diversity scholarship.

- Now she's pissed.

"Maybe that's why Crid seems so angry."

It's called projection on your part Miss Lobster.

A new study. It's a study so it must be true.

That's so funny, maybe you and Crid can call up this father of a dead child and tell him your funny jokes:

http://www.iol.co.za/news/south-africa/gauteng/child-dies-after-circumcision-at-hospital-1.1563203

"Child dies after circumcision at hospital
“They killed my child.” These were the pained words of a Germiston father whose son had to be taken off life support on Wednesday evening after he was declared brain dead by two surgeons following a medical circumcision operation"

Yeah, Old RPM Daddy, that's an interesting story. I personally don't blame her for suing the school. If she went out on job interviews and proudly proclaimed that she had received the Vice Provost's scholarship, someone would have done some checking and discovered the scholarship didn't exist. They wouldn't hire her because, from their perspective, she flat out LIED to them.

Dood, you didn't answer the question. And it's important.

Because it's starting to seem like you're maybe a troubled guy... Or gal... The sort of broken teacup who doesn't feel sufficient attention has been paid to his/her deep interior hurts, and is willing to pretend that they're part of a much larger, and much more odious body of suffering by a class of people who've truly earned our deep concern...

...Such the women suffering sexual disfigurement in primitive Islam.

SO WE NEED TO KNOW THE IF YOU CAN TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THINGS THAT ARE REAL AND THINGS THAT AREN'T.

So here's a quiz:

Is this "a scientific journal?"

Men's Studies Press
2431 Airport Road
Oakdale, TN 37829

☐ Yes, it's a scientific journal

☐ No, not a scientific journal

The correct answer:

☑ No, not a scientific journal.

"That's so funny"

What's so funny? If you referring to what I said, it was intended to be funny. You seem to be angry.

not intended.

Such the women suffering sexual disfigurement in primitive Islam.

Why is it that drawing a single drop of blood from a pinprick is also illegal then?

Why is it ALL forms of FGM are illegal in first world countries, even the several types that cause less harm than circumcision?

No, not a scientific journal.

So what. You ignore scientific data all the time when it suit your purpose.

Yeah?

You shouldn't read my comments.

Your point?
