Circumcision: Worse than rape.

Why is everyone so concerned with rape? I think the prevailance of boys and men being circumcised is a human rights issue. Essentially, circumcision robs a man of an idex card sized peice of errogenous tissue. This tissue by itself is capable of causing orgasm, the penis loses about half it's sensation immediately. This is done a few days after birth and it is mind-numbingly painful for the boy. No pain killers are used. Psychologists now believe that circumcision causes life long psychological harm, and tests are only now being done on the long term effects which were once believed to be minimal if any. Now they know that circumcision is responsible for the callousing and desensitizing of the glans, rigidness of the penile skin, painful intercourse, and adherence due to improperly healed skin after the circumcision.
The foreskin is healthy tissue. There is nothing wrong with it. You wouldn't pull your finger nails out to prevent nail fungus would you? Or pull yout teeth out and immediatly start using dencher. Every affliction caused by the existence of the foreskin is several times more common in women due to vaginal folds than it is in men. Yet female circumcision, which does prevent UTI's and cervical cancer like male circumcsion, is illegal.
It's time to start respecting the rights of our boys' bodies. Circumcision needs to be illegal unless there is an actual problem. If you have penile cancer for example circumcision might remove the malignancy. But to circumcise millions of men to prevent the deaths of ten of them in old age is preposterous.
CIRCUMCISION PERMANANTLY CHANGES A MAN'S NATURAL SEXUALITY. WHAT HE FEELS PHYSICALLY AND EMOTIONALY ABOUT SEX IS PERMANANTLY CHANGED BY CIRCUMCISION.
Isn't that even worse than rape?
