add exclusionary argument: this child isn't yours
Exclusionary arguments often try to either push the discussion partner in the corner of a minority so that he must not talk when the majority discusses something - or to ascribe themselves to a special group, whose group rules forbid that outsiders may join in the discussion at all.
* '''"The child isn't yours, so you don't have to care!"'''
*: This argument is often heard by young parents who wonder when [[intactivists]] add informative comments to their publicly posted statements about the circumcision of their sons. Almost always they don't understand parental rights and wonder why strangers care more about their child and his well-being and human rights than they do themselves.
* '''"Those who are not circumcised, can / may not talk!"'''
