I have to admit that I am mostly of the same mind, though I also admit that I'm not sure what would convince me that such a surgery IS medically necessary.

I am not a doctor, so I will leave it up to the medical community and peer reviewed research on outcomes to determine what is medically necessary. AFAIK, medical professionals in most major western countries agree that it is, although I certainly have not done an extensive investigating into it, to be able to say which ones exactly.
I am going to take their medical opinions on it, rather than someone who complains about it because it is icky, or some other nonsensical reason.
