All unnessecary child genital mutilation is fucked up, even when done in the USA or any other country, whether for religious or parental choice reasons. The only appropriate circumcision is for direct medical intervention or by the informed consent of the gentals' owner.

Please ceremonies are usually performed on older adolescent or young adult males. It marks the change from child to adulthood.

Not that I'm in favor of it in any case, but it's not being done on infants, like in North America.
