Why does there seem to be a stigma attached to advocate for Men's Rights?

Kind of similar to the "well I was beaten as a kid and I turned out fine" in that you have zero chance of knowing how different you would be if you weren't beaten/circumcised.

This is so way beyond dramatic. I'm glad I took my ass to bed instead of indulging in this Tom Foolery.

Doesn't circumcision take away a certain part of sexual pleasure due to losing sensitivity?
Seems like a ****ed up thing to do to one's child.

Based on nearly every study I've read, no. It's a myth.

Does Circumcision Reduce Sexual Pleasure?

https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog...al-sensitivity

It's official: Circumcision DOESN'T affect sexual pleasure, according to biggest ever study of the issue | Daily Mail Online

Hmm not sure about either study tbh. Most people don't have a frame of reference of what the other side is like and pleasure is subjective. Difficult to measure (ps you could've posted those first two links and cut the joke that is The Daily Mail).
