Well, you could just go online and realize that there are many men who were circumcised who pursue foreskin restoration, allowing you to not just assume but KNOW that some people who are circumcised would have preferred not to have been. This is not a case where one needs to figure out what the child would prefer and…

No one is saying that every man who is circumcised will be traumatized by that, we are simply acknowledging that SOME people who were circumcised as children grew up to resent that decision (with some even going so far as to pursue foreskin restoration). Given that some of those who were forced into the procedure…

Yes, a lot of people would be MORE angry if it was integrated into the box itself, as it would remove their ability to disconnect it and be 100% sure that the camera/mic is not capturing what's going on in the room. Software is hackable, so having only a software switch to turn off the Kinect rather than the ability…

It's comforting to know someone who decided they should be able to make such a permanent decision on behalf of their child didn't even do the minimal research necessary to discover that there are many people who were circumcised at birth who are vehemently against the practice. Is comforting the right word?

Actually, it's more like the AAP is unable to objectively look at the medical evidence because of its religious origin and monetary benefit (circumcised=get money, uncircumcised = don't get money, easy choice). Internationally the medical community has been quite critical of the AAP's stance saying its benefits…

There are many males who have been circumcised who have spoken out against the practice, and there are support groups and special devices that can be used to help recreate a foreskin (google foreskin restoration if you don't believe me). Considering it is a cosmetic procedure, there is no reason to perform it on an…

Factually, it has been known to degrade function and yes, even cause death, so factually it is mutilation. But feel free to keep making judgements based on your sample size of one with no ability for comparison; those pesky facts just get in the way.

Let your son decide when he's old enough to. No one should be making that decision for him.

No iOS, but what about OS X?

While white males who commit mass shootings generally get a lot more media coverage than non-white males, I certainly have heard of non-white males responsible for mass shootings, and I'm pretty certain you have too. For one, the Virginia Tech shooter, responsible for the largest mass shooting in the US, was not…

The reason Sony's consistency is important isn't just marketing, but actual console development. Xbox spokespeople at E3 made it seem like taking the always online requirement away would require rebuilding their console from scratch, since it had been built around the idea of constant connectivity ("are you a…

Contacted would be wrong in this instance since it would indicate contact was actually made, rather than just an attempt to contact the person. If they haven't received any response yet they have to use "reached out" instead of "contacted".

Can someone explain this numbering system?

Psst, you're not a feminist through and through, you're a feminist when it benefits you, then suddenly not a feminist when that's beneficial. Your dating philosophy is decidedly inconsistent with a pursuit of gender equality. If you must be like that at least learn to rationalize your bullshit better.

Since always.

Everyone knows what really matters is the length times diameter plus weight over girth divided by angle of the tip squared.

It's not an or, they are always out to get money. But they also serve that rather important function, which patent trolls don't.

Hm, litigation protecting consumer rights against big companies is not really unique to America. In fact, in many other countries consumers have more rights than they do in America. For example.

He might not lose. And litigation trolls, unlike patent trolls, serve an important function in society, by constantly testing laws and establishing precedent about what is and is not legal.

The word retarded isn't limited to just the medical condition, but the other definition does not have anything to do with "causing other things to not function properly it could be someone who is stupid or inept". Either you use it to mean slowed down/delayed (e.g. the delivery of ouyas to its original backers was…
