Woo hoo! That anti-circumcision movement is growing! It really blows my mind that this continues to be an acceptable practice (beware, the pictures are totally graphic). Honestly, I've wondered in the past if it doesn't have anything to do with the penile obsession of so many men. I mean, if the first thing that happens to you is your parents chopping of part of your penis, you're GOING to be phallocentric for the rest of your life. I think it's pretty funny that Freud thought castration fear came from sex when there's such an obvious source in circumcision. Although I doubt Austrians were getting chopped in the 1920's....
There's even a documentarycoming out about it.
