I watched the Penn & Teller BS episode on Circumcision last night. DH had a copy of the applicable season on DVD.
I found it to be a very disturbing account of parents inflicting their will on tiny beings who cannot defend themselves.
There were also interviews with men who had been "victims" of infantile circumcision. These interviews highlighted to me that in this day and age, we are perhaps perilously close to the point where a man will sue his parents over an unwanted circumcision.
I recommend watching it.
