It's all well and good to say 'you were born with it, don't mess with nature', but unless you're a tree hugging hippy, with all your pubic hair, no piercings, no tatts, no colour in your hair, no fillings in your teeth, and a foreskin (if you're male), then truth be told, sometimes people do things to their body because they can. Same reason a dog licks it's own balls. Because it can.

I believe I was 'one of those' who said why stuff with nature and no I'm not a hippy although I do love trees

You can't really compare the adult choice of piercing, tatts, colouring your hair, removing your pubes etc etc with removing the foreskin of a newborn can you??? Perhaps it's just me but that argument seems a little unbalanced.

Mind you I'm on the fence - think I'd prefer to leave the foreskin on because it's not my body I'm operating on.
