Re: Circumcision
Some tribes in Africa practice vaginal mutilation. Apparently women should not have the right to enjoy any pleasure in the process of reproduction.

Re: Circumcision
That was your choice, as an adult, and with a medical indication. Presumably with full disclosure and informed consent. Entirely different circumstances when it comes to newborns.
Fwiw, I'm against making any permanent changes to a child's body until they are old enough to make that decision themselves, unless there is medical need. This includes ear piercing.

Oh God, not this topic again. Every 18 months to 2 years or so, the same discussion gets dusted off for another airing on here.

And nothing changes with regards to outlawing this barbaric procedure. There are a lot of good things about the US, but this is not one of them.

Re: Circumcision
Makes no bloody sense. Unless there is a valid medical reason, like adhesions or phimosis or something to have it done, there is no good sense to removing a postcard sized piece of skin with 15,000 nerve endings in it that has evolved to make the penis a self-lubricating organ. It's not like the appendix, it has a function. Plus it's super easy to keep clean as well and even circumsised men can get smegma if they don't keep their old fella properly cleaned.
