oh no.. that cannot top some of the debates I was in.. in the mid-90s. Pro-anti-circers.. writing in public post..."I WANT MY FORESKIN BACK!" If they weren't blaming Jews, then they were blaming the "medical" industry, then they were blaming their parents for having circ'd them. All of 'em looking for "deep pockets".

Then there were the "self-help" groups which started up in the SF Bay Area. This included.. hanging tomes with clips to the "tip" in order to.. uh.. grow a flap. There is (or was) a clinic in the SF area which performs surgery to "replace" one's foreskin.

Most anti-circers' posture circumcision as akin (identical) to ...GENDER MUTILATION.

Uck. I'm already sorry I popped into this thread.

Up until the Shiavo affair, the most vicious thread I had ever seen on FR was a circumcision thread.

Never knew some people took it so seriously.
