    Oh yeah, I love asking these people talking about mutilating children what they think of circumcision and why, if they are against it, they aren’t this vocal about it.

      This is exactly what I thought too. Sad you don’t see the same energy being thrown at ending this practice.

      They aren’t against it for 2 main reasons:

      1. They had it done to them (if they have a penis) and they’re fine so it’s normal, and OK, and not a crime (right?) …
      2. They want to fit in and peer pressure is strong and they aren’t strong enough to balk against it or tell a dr. “no”.
