tenniels, the point of *my* argument.. I don't know about anyone else... is that circumcision is abusive. It's cosmetic surgery done to someone who has no say in the matter. We think chinese foot binding is inhumane, why not circumcision?
It's also a sad cultural thing. If you have a cut penis and you're happy with it, great. That doesn't excuse the cultural propaganda that makes some uneducated people think it's gross to be uncut. Now people ACTUALLY think about their son fitting in when they are seen naked in the locker room a good 15 years before they have to.
Let's not forget that circumcision is a religious thing. It was intended to steer young boys away from sexual pleasure.
So when you ask why I care if someone ELSE is circumcised, I respond that it affects culture to be so mislead about it. And culture affects me.
