Some hermaphrodites choose to live as hermaphrodites - i.e. they avoid identifying as one sex or the other as much as possible and believe babies shouldn't be operated on at birth.

Re the circumcision, that's obviously "disfiguring" if you screw up the penis and corrective surgery would be covered. The "nurture vs nature" that a boy can be raised as a girl (i.e. the L & O ep) has been proven to be a lot of hooey.
