      I’m pretty sure conservatives are mad that some men actually are.

            oh, you mean trans women? Since men get their testes removed from cancer and other reasons, it’s the misogyny and homophobia that seems to motivate the anti-trans sentiment, at least it seems.

      Why would anyone in their right mind cut off their own balls?
      That’s beyond Jackass levels and into the realm of Darwin awards.

      Dude it’s not even that. I got the snip, I was back rocking in the sack 5 days later. Kids mom at the time had to give me shit ton of BJs and hand jobs. Because even week later you can still have live sperm in your sack.
