All of these reasons could be overlooked for the best interest of the child. Nobody wants to have part of their penis removed, especially against their will. Circumcision removes 2/3 the penile shaft skin.

It also decreases sexual pleasure by 70%. However most men who are circumcised as infants do not know this because they have no comparison means.
Men who are circumcised as adults often are disappointed and depressed in their loss. Some report no difference, but these statistics could be proven false. Supplying the reason that after an operation is done for a "presumably good purpose" people may lie while convincing themselves that "it will get better" truth is, it does not.
