The arguments for supposed health benefits of circumcision are as fraudulent and pseudo-scientific as those for anthropogenic global warming. The foreskin is a normal, healthy, functional part of the body, in both sexes. Otherwise it wouldn't be there.

If you believe in circumcision, then you can trot down to a surgeon and have yourself mutilated, once you are an adult. No one has the right to mutilate the genitals of his child, and very few adults would choose to have this procedure. It is child abuse, pure and simple.
