So you don't get it? The reason is obviously some people find one thing less bad than the other and objectively speaking FGM is worse than male circumcision.

For (I believe) most people in the world both are bad. You can be against both and still see a difference. What is shocking about that?

To believe someone is pro male circumcision just because they think (several types of) FGM are worse is zero-sum thinking.

You're the one who doesn't get that my point is why are we fucking with infants genitals at all.

It really doesn't matter which method is worse than the other.

That's why I brought up the orphan crushing machine. A story about someone saving orphans, from an orphan crushing machine, is seen as something to be celebrated. Yet no one questions why there's an orphan crushing machine to begin with.

You explicitly wrote that you are shocked people react differently. The reason is they have different practices in mind. In context of that question this difference does matter.

That doesn't have anything to do with whether or not you are against both practices or not.
