Celebrities Against Circumcision

(NaturalNews) Despite the innocuous and innocent sounding word for it, circumcision is a violation of our human rights regardless of whether the victim is a boy or a girl. The argument that circumcision is a matter of personal choice is semantically erroneous and illogical, infants do not consent to medical procedures, the parents do. Here are some celebrities' views on the issue.

Alicia Silverstone

When Christopher, Bear and I were over at our friend's house hanging out in the pool, I started talking about my dad's not-so-happy reaction about Bear not being cut. And I told them about my dad's concern that Bear wouldn't fit in, that he worried about other kids giving Bear a hard time because he looked different. As if on cue, the four other moms there lifted their naked little babies out of the pool - not one was circumcised.

Craig Ferguson

While interviewing a physician on his show, Craig brought a succinct argument in favor of leaving boys intact with a doctor who claimed there are health benefits.

Craig Ferguson: But couldn't you achieve the same effect (the health benefits of circumcision) by washing your pee pee on a regular basis?

Dr. Masterson: You absolutely could.

Craig: So we're talking, you could have this chopped off or your can wash it. Your call.

Dr. Masterson: Exactly.

Craig: [sarcastically] That's a tough choice there doctor. I don't know!

Howard Stern

You know, my mother is so into 'natural' everything. "The body is beautiful." You should hear the rap. The body is beautiful; we should leave things natural. So, she wouldn't get me braces. My teeth were as crooked as a four-way intersection in Washington DC, and green, and bu-bu-bu- wouldn't get me braces. My teeth were so wrecked because "naturally the body will heal itself." She's like a?Christian Scientist. But the penis? Right out the window! I am completely pissed off that I'm circumcised.

Gerard Butler

In an interview with Howard Stern he was asked if he was circumcised. This was his response:

No! We don't do that! ...Never having been circumcised I can't say but all I know is for me it's very sensitive, and when I'm having sex that's the amazing thing.

Cameron Diaz

Apparently its very uncomfortable for people to hear how it works when you have to clamp on the foreskin, pull it over, and then slice it off. Yeah, that apparently is really uncomfortable for people to hear. Yeah, but I think its important to know. It's sort of like, its the same way, America is the same way about their beef. They just want it delivered in a Styrofoam package with saran wrap over it. They don't want to know how it got to you.

Joe Rogan

It's a gross thing isn't it man? It's a weird thing that people still cut babies dicks. There's no logic to it at all. No science. All that nonsense about stopping AIDS. Go F#@# yourself. You're not stopping AIDS by cutting dicks. By the way you're not getting AIDS from not washing your dick. That's nonsense. You've got no statistics to back that up. It's one of those things where it was done to us, and women say, "It looks gross, so cut it". It's a really #$*%ed up situation that we still have to deal with this.

John Leguizamo

Growing up in New York City, a lot of my friends weren't circumcised, and my dad's not circumcised and none of my family members are circumcised, so to me that was normal. When I saw some white kids circumcised, it looked like a mutilated monster. It was weird to me...it was really bizarre.

Dustin Hoffman

Sometimes they say someone shouldn't be circumcised because it's more natural and they should be circumcised because of hygiene. But the argument against that is if you wanna clean under your nails, you don't cut your nails off.

Sara Gilbert

Only 32.5 percent of babies are being cut these days, so [an intact baby] will be in the majority if you don't do it.

Russell Brand

We don't do it in England. It's just more like, people don't worry about it. They just, they just let it go, that sort of thing. ... It's a bit unfair, isn't it, to do that to babies? I mean, you're alive a little while, start chopping bits of his dick off. I don't think God cares about that. He's got a lot [going] on.

Daniel Tosh

Just for the record...I always wish I wasn't circumcised.

Billy Joel

I got the, ah, 'snip', and I had nothing to say about that. And I'm still a little pissed off about that, actually. They should have asked first.

Russell Crowe

Circumcision is barbaric and stupid. Who are you to correct nature? Is it real that GOD requires a donation of foreskin? Babies are perfect.

Conclusion

Circumcision cannot be undone. If we are to continue the practice of circumcision, than we must continue on our own terms as consenting adults. Parents cannot remove other body parts or tattoo their children upon birth. Why is this human rights violation still tolerated?
