Has Any Other Parent Experienced Harassment From "Intactivists"?

[trishyiepie]

Hi everyone, so this is my second post on here (go check out my first about my 2 month old). So I was on an app called reddit and I posted a comment about the extreme debate on male circumcision. I said, "My son (2 months old) is circumcised and he's doing fine. When I tell you I was harassed to h3LL, I was harassed to h3LL. They did nothing but mock my son, make jokes about, "He's gonna grow up mutilated" and so many other disturbing things. Has anyone else experienced this? It's really annoying. My sons penis is none of your business and there is no reason it should even be on your mind. Period. (I just put family cause I don't know what else)

Ohhh .... right. My mistake. Thank you, dave. Since others ahve said the same thing as MartinMillar, it might have been clearer if she'd addressed the comment to no one in particular.

The net is full of LibFac bullies but you play into their hands by bringing up things about your immediate family or yourself. Both your questions on here so far indicate obsession with your son's private area. Trolls will pick up on that. You are welcome here but I advise not to discuss things that are and should remain private to you.

You discussed your son's penis online, and then you complain that other people are also discussing his penis online. If you hadn't mentioned it, nobody else would have.

And now we are all dis cusing and thinking about your sons penis too!

Sounds like a *** and bull story to me...

Well if you posted an inoffensive comment and got abuse back then that’s naturally upsetting.
However the comment by you:
“ My sons penis is none of your business and there is no reason it should even be on your mind” doesn’t sound reasonable either. If you offer information about that then you can expect some sort of response. Especially if you already know it’s an “extreme debate”

Its just a small tip.....

I do like naomi’s comment about the argument “stretching back” years.
Or not as the case may be here (!)

Good Girl !

I must say I would have looked at circumcision and kept well away. If you are in the land of the Free, I am surprised a few Aryans didnt invited themselves around to burn down your house !

but hey I only live in a drug soaked slum in Manchester ! - where we nibble sarndwiches on our lawn whilst there is a gun fight up the street - oh I say, these chocolate nibble are like bullets....

I was not. I was saying the reddit comments were rude and disrespectful.

Yes, I was not accusing anyone on here of being rude

[trishyiepie]

naomi24
I did not accuse her of being rude, I was stating that the people on reddit could state what they think, share their opinions and have an argument or debate without being rude

Unfortunately, some people hiding behind keyboards and usernames don't often care what the say or how they say it. Best to keep aspect of your private life, private.

// Ohhh .... right. My mistake. //
jamais, jamais - - - nooo !

someone else's surely erm mistake I mean

I agree with Naomi - the point is being stretched

It's a fact of life, however unpleasant, that people get abused in anonymous cyberspace.

No good complaining you're a cut above the rest .

[Peter Pedant]

abuse is everywhere

( erm not just cyberspace. My comment is not too pointy-headed is it?)
