I really do agree with you here in terms of its not really good or bad, its sort of a meh.
From my selfish standpoint (as in what I like about it myself).
#1 It IS culturaly acceptable and expected, there are fights worth fighting, this doesn't seem to be one of them.
#2 I'm always BJ ready and the women in the US expect it.
#3 I'm glad it was done when I was a wee-one so I don't recall it.
It doesn't seem to really hurt anyone so I don't understand the frothing at the mouth some people have about it. My evolutionary biology take on this is the foreskin became obsolete once we started to wear clothes, and while I've never experianced it first hand the fun descriptions I read while researching this make me glad I am since there are obvious hygine issues and I like to keep'em clean (see #2).
