Yee-Ouch!!.... Snip-Snip-Snip!.... Like - Whose penis is it, anyway?
IMO - Male circumcision is a real-life horror story for its unsuspecting victim (a newborn baby boy). I believe that the stress and trauma that this accepted medical procedure can have on a baby is very likely to stay with him right up into adulthood.
This informed and well-researched documentary about foreskin circumcision certainly offers a lot of heated opposition to this horrendous and unwarranted procedure that the American medical profession openly promotes and encourages to this very day.

Plot summary
This incredible documentary tells the story of how genital mutilation AKA circumcision became standard practice in the United States and how the anti-circumcision movement known as Intactivism is changing our attitudes and medical practice. A must see for any father, mother, son, daughter, grandparent or sibling or frankly anyone who wants to know and understand our society.

Foreskin Forever!
Very Biased
The documentary claims to present both sides. If the filmmakers wanted to give a biased anti-circumcision view (which this is) that's fine, but claiming they cover both views is a lie. And the reviewer that claims he was traumatized when he learned this happened to him as an infant, it must be nice to have a life with no real problems.
Barbaric practice
I have always considered circumcision of males and females to be a barbaric practice and this documentary confirms this stance.
What adults want to do with their bodies is their decision. For example, I do not like tattoos, which I consider to be mutilation, but I am not against it. That is your decision.
Leave babies' bodies alone, other than for real medical problems. When the kids grow up let them then decide what they want. It's as simple as that and conforms with human rights and common sense.
Unfortunately too many places in the world still have past customs which will not easily change. Laws are not always correct. On remote Pacific islands cannibalism is apparently still practised too. What a terrible thought.
