This is what I mean about "context".:
You say: "Yes I would feel uncomfortable if I saw a woman in a burka in my country, I would also feel horrified the same as I would seeing a child forced into prostitution. The burka is not a freedom of expression no matter how you slice it. It is a tool of repression".
I could only agree with that if the ladies wearing the burka, considered that they HAD to wear it.

Then on to your "circumcision" point..
personally, I can't see any reason. religious or otherwise, to chop off various body parts, in the name of any religion!
This is a basic argument that elders from the religious groups concerned should address....and fix.
Remind me, what fooking century are we living in?!!!
