ambivalence noun am·biv·a·lence am-ˈbi-və-lən(t)s 1 : simultaneous and contradictory attitudes or feelings (such as attraction and repulsion) toward an object, person, or action felt ambivalence toward his powerful father ambivalence toward marriage 2 a : continual fluctuation (as between one thing and its opposite) b : uncertainty as to which approach to follow ambivalence about their goals
I don’t care; sounds like ambivalence to me.
Dude... You're acting like you're a wrench short of a full toolbox. Obviously meant he doesn't care that he personally was circumcised. But he does care enough that he won't do it to his kids.
I.E. He's accepted the fact that what happened was in the past and he can't change it, so no use crying about it especially when it has not effected the use of his member in any negative way. But he can change what happens in the future for his kids by not doing that to them and letting them have a choice when they're older.
If the guy was actually ambivalent he would just go along with continuing to allow his own kids to be circumcised and/or have no opinion of the procedure. Or he would dislike the procedure but allow it to happen anyways because of tradition or something.
Stop being obtuse and ignorant. Though having said that I now feel like you'll come at me with the mathematical definition of obtuse to try and use petty semantics to make yourself feel better
Words matter.
