54% of people who answered the poll agreed that circumcision is assault.
56% of women agreed, 51% of men did too.
People from 13-44 agreed, while older people disagreed.
Atheists were split 50/50, 33% of Christians agreed, agnostics agreed 100%, and Jews disagreed 100%, for obvious reasons.
Politically 62% of people who described themselves as "other" agreed, as well as 88% of liberals, and 57% of moderates. Libertarians were split 50/50 and 18% of conservatives agreed.
60% of people who are divorced agreed, as well as 57% of people in a relationship, 50% of married people, and 57% of singles.
Parents and people who want to have kids agreed 56% and 60% respectively. People undecided or don't want kids disagree.
56% of non-smokers agreed, while only 23% of smokers agreed. Perhaps smokers don't care any more about babies' bodies than they do their own.
54% of non drinkers agreed while only 41% of boozers agreed. Again it might be about respect for the human body.
57% of people with graduate and professional schooling agreed, while only 33% of high school graduates agreed.
73% of retirees agreed but only 28% of full time workers agreed.
83% of healthcare professionals agreed, along with 67% in I.T., and 50% of small business owners.

From what I've learned over my very long life, that I was luck to have been circumcised. If one of my granddaughters gave birth to a boy and asked me for advice in the matter, I would recommend circumcision.
Circumcision in the US is legal as are abortions. Only by changing laws can any change occur. And until I read this poll, I was not aware of any anti circumcision movement in the US. There is however a very large group of anti abortion folks in the US, but despite this, abortion is still legal (Roe v Wade 1973).
