Ah man, I felt the same way until I really put in the effort to learn it properly, and it finally clicked. Fighting more than one person is meant to be almost impossible to win. It forces you to choose your fights more carefully when you're outnumbered as you would in reality, or at least use your brain to reduce their numbers or isolate them before taking them on. Or even just get really good at lining them up so you're only fighting one at a time, as you would probably do if ever you fought two people in real life.

I think I've only once won a fight against three. When I see four I just turn away automatically.

Hell yeah, that's a lesson I learned early on. I might not wanna see YOU naked, but I'm still flattered you wanna see ME naked haha.

Hmm... what's wrong with people thinking you're gay? Are you worried it'll turn away potential partners? Even if that's the case, it could also mean you're bisexual or non-binary but completely into women.

Hell, any woman that would be interested in you anyways wouldn't think "oh, he's got a pride flag... better not talk to him". If anything it'll just solidify you as an ally to a group that you're not a part of. It's basically just an "I'm not an asshole" flag. I bet it would even score you some points.

Yeah I feel like the haters are basing it all on tattoos of weed leaves and some generic text like 'LOYALTY'. If you go to a proper artist to get your vision commissioned, it's no different than commissioning an artist to paint on canvas. You're just wearing the medium.

That also doesn't meant there aren't insufferable people with really nice tattoos, but to say "all tattoos are stupid" is like saying "all paintings are stupid".

And bonus that in Canada, most provinces have the same or only slightly reduced minimum wages for tipped staff.

Ah interesting! Yeah fair enough... either $3 or $7, it's gonna be real tough to staff those positions.

Why not? That's what you're saying it costs. What's the difference if it's listed on the menu instead of hidden behind some obscure social contract?

I agree it would suck for the workers in the mean time, but I think the labour market would adapt pretty quickly if servers actually started making $3/hour. No one would want to be a server and restaurants would be forced to pay competitively if they expect to hire anyone.

I think stopping patronizing those restaurants altogether doesn't send any clear message about why it's happening. Maybe combined with some large-scale public campaign, but on its own it wouldn't achieve too much.

They're called chiropractors and that's a weird thing to say about them

Well that was about one small village worth of water, thank you.

Couldn't the same be said of the west, except that rent and food are 3-4 times those amounts?

The mistake in all of this discussion is making those who are circumsized feel ashamed about it at all. No one should feel bad about being circumsized.

Now that that's out of way, that's a pretty weak counterargument. Your justification for why we should keep doing it is that society prefers it? That's exactly the thing that's finally being pushed back against. It's inherently a barbaric practice that serves no medical purpose (for the large majority) and is purely aesthetic, and we're doing it to newborn babies so they can look like their daddies and keep the social norm alive.

You don't have anything to feel bad about and it's great that it hasn't been a hindrance for you, but as soon as one generation stops, your argument will be moot.
