“The mind is an attribute of the individual. There is no such thing as a collective brain. There is no such thing as a collective thought. An agreement reached by a group of men is only a compromise or an average drawn upon many individual thoughts. It is a secondary consequence. The primary act—the process of reason—must be performed by each man alone. We can divide a meal among many men. We cannot digest it in a collective stomach. No man can use his lungs to breathe for another man. No man can use his brain to think for another. All the functions of body and spirit are private. They cannot be shared or transferred.
We inherit the products of the thought of other men. We inherit the wheel. We make a cart. The cart becomes an automobile. The automobile becomes an airplane. But all through the process what we receive from others is only the end product of their thinking. The moving force is the creative faculty which takes this product as material, uses it and originates the next step. This creative faculty cannot be given or received, shared or borrowed. It belongs to single, individual men. That which it creates is the property of the creator. Men learn from one another. But all learning is only the exchange of material. No man can give another the capacity to think. Yet that capacity is our only means of survival.” – Ayn Rand

Whatever their future, at the dawn of their lives, men seek a noble vision of man’s nature and of life’s potential. - Ayn Rand
If my daughter’s labia looked different from mine (likely considering the range of normal) I wouldn’t consider alabioplasty to “correct” it. In fact is probably have her refined from my care for even asking a doctor to do it. Rightly so.
How often are our children examining it genitals in detail? A daddy penis is also a lot larger than a child’s penis. You going to get him an enlargement? Or are you going to be a parent and explain it?
It really is. It is a ridiculous argument. I don’t have any desire to reduce the size of my breasts to look like my mother and I don’t care at all what her labia look like compared to mine. I don’t care what my own daughter’s genitals look like either. She’s a BABY! Her body is supposed to look different from mine. I don’t get that argument AT ALL! It’s totally a cop-out to justify mutilating defenseless baby boys.
I like to point out to people that my mom was a DD and myself and my four sisters were no larger than B. No one ever suggested we be augmented to match our mother, and breasts are so much more obvious and defining than genitals.
Along those lines, female circumcision also reduces STI’s. Try selling that one to your average American. The double standard is so glaring.
I agree! Genital mutilation is genital mutilation. I’ve had many arguments with family members over this issue; many of them men who were hurt by genital mutilation but in order to protect themselves they have to somehow justify what was done to them.
Thank YOU for everything you have done to inform people on the harms of circumcision! Feel free to share my post if you like!

Residents on Hawaii's Big Island are bracing for even more damage from the Kilauea volcano as authorities lift the alert level to red, indicating a major eruption is imminent.
On Tuesday morning local time, eruption of ash at the volcano's summit was increasing in intensity as the top of the ash cloud reached more than 3500m above sea level, according to the US Geological Survey.
The raised alert level indicates a "major volcanic eruption is imminent, underway or suspected with hazardous activity both on the ground and in the air," USGS said.
Experts earlier predicted a major explosion could cause refrigerator-sized boulders to shoot out from the volcano, with dozens of homes already destroyed from lava seeping out of up to 20 fissures.
More than 2000 residents have already been evacuated since Kilauea first began erupting, however authorities are warning residents to remain on alert for more lava and gas.
The Hawaii National Guard has warned mass evacuations may be triggered if either highway is hit by lava, however there are concerns residents in some areas may become trapped depending on the lava's flow.
“There’s a lot of worst-case scenarios, and roads getting blocked is one of them,” Hawaii National Guard spokesman Jeff Hickman told Reuters.
Residents have received text messages warning of eye and breathing irritation from excessive exposure to toxic gas, after rock falls and gas explosions within the crater caused an ash plume.
"Severe conditions may exist such as choking and inability to breathe," Hawaii County Civil Defense warned.
"Sulfur Dioxide gas from fissures are especially dangerous for elderly, children/babies and people with respiratory problems."
'Lava chasers' and residents in the area have caught spectacular videos of molten rock exploding from fissures, with aerial footage capturing the destructive path of the lava across the region.
