[quote=Anonymous]Look, there's mutilating, and then there's mutilating. Piercing my baby's ears? Not something I would do. Circumcising a male child? Not somethign I'm enthusiastic about but my anecdotal experience tells me it is not a damaging, disabling procedure. Most men have perfectly good sexual and penile health despite the removal of a foreskin. Circumscising a female, or binding her feet? That is hardly an apt comparison. The first cripples her sexual function and threatens her overall health (increased infections for instance). The second LITERALLY cripples a person. I think a compairing these things is frankly insulting to the women who have had to endure horrible mutilation. Male circumcision does not compare to the maiming and ruin of part of a person's body.
