I'm with those who say that mutilation is too strong of a term. I was a baby when I got snipped under the belief that it would reduce/prevent future medical problems. I have no idea if there is any medical justification for circumcision.
On a related (well, sort of) side note, my wife says that she's curious to know how a foreskin feels during intercourse. I would guess that many women have the same thought.
