Anyone found a reference to Marcia Langton's paper on Male Genital Mutilation?
Here's an example, just in case someone doesn't know what it means: "In January,[2014] the ABC reported on an Aboriginal initiation ceremony involving circumcision in which three boys were injured. Below, Northern Land Council media officer Murray McLaughlin writes that the reporting smacked of value judgement and cultural superiority. The ABC's head of current affairs Bruce Belsham writes in defence of the investigation here." http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-03-06/mclaughlin-abc-circumcision-reports-were-culturally-insensitive/5301240 Posted by Is Mise, Sunday, 14 June 2020 1:42:47 PM

I wonder if the circumcisions were 'insensitive'.
And the key question: were they voluntary ? And the follow-up key question: do young Aboriginal men have the same rights as other Australians not to be seized, abducted, and mutilated against their will ? Of course, I'm presuming that this is what Prof. Langton was on about ? Equal rights ? Joe Posted by loudmouth2, Sunday, 14 June 2020 1:53:10 PM

Shadow Minister,
Have you noticed that all of the politicians you mentioned above have something in common? They are all scumbag lawyers. In social ranking lawyers always rank about 4/10 on the same level as car dealers. Why? Simply because they are seen by the public as dishonest and untrustworthy. I would put project home builders on the same level as those two. But the thing that sets lawyers apart from the other two is that they knowingly make an income out of the misery and misfortune of their fellow humans.

Misopinionated,
" ..... make an income out of the misery and misfortune of their fellow humans." I'm relieved that you're not making any income out of inflicting 'misery and misfortune' on the rest of us. Joe Posted by loudmouth2, Sunday, 14 June 2020 2:55:23 PM

LOUDmouth,
You're a bit ambiguous but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and take that as a compliment. Posted by Mr Opinion, Sunday, 14 June 2020 3:00:49 PM
