Well...I would agree that "altering" is certainly a much more palatable word than mutilation. I feel the non-consensual aspects of the decision of removing/changing parts of anyone's genitalia as an infant is my issue with this conversation. It seems to me that at the age of reason or adulthood, a human being should be entitled to make that choice. Not have it made for them.
