Yeah, my younger brother is a bastard, I try really hard to think skeptically at all times, and he just seems to do it naturally, without even trying. He's not an active skeptic, but he did send me the following email, which I found diverting and it might be a good argument to use against the "It's old, so it must be good" line.
There should probably be a warning on his email, some people will find this in extremely bad taste but sometimes we have to use shock value to get our point across, so if you are squeamish, or don't like to talk about rude bits, don't bother reading. Here is his opinion.......

I just read on a packet of some kind of herb de-tox treatment thing and it said. "ayurveda is an ancient system of health and healing practised in India for over 5000 years" then it goes on to rant about how it is good for you. Anyways after reading this piece of proof that the thing works i.e. It has been used for 5000 years so it must be good I started to think...
How long have girls been circumcised for and why are they circumcised? I think I found some answers from a few web sites.
Here is few reasons why:
1) The clitoris is dangerous and must be removed for health reasons. Some believe that it is a poisonous organ, that can cause a man to sicken or die if contacted by a man's penis. Others believe that men can become impotent by contacting a clitoris, or that a baby will be hydrocephalic (born with excess cranial fluid) if its head contacts the clitoris during birth. Some believe that the milk of the mother will become poisonous if her clitoris touches the baby during childbirth.
2) Bad genital odours can only be eliminated by removing the clitoris and labia minora.
3) FGM prevents vaginal cancer.
4) An unmodified clitoris can lead to masturbation or lesbianism.
5) FGM prevents nervousness from developing in girls and women.
6) FGM prevents the face from turning yellow.
7) FGM makes a woman's face more beautiful.
8) If FGM is not done, older men may not be able to match their wives' sex drive and may have to resort to illegal stimulating drugs.
9) An intact clitoris generates sexual arousal in women which can cause neuroses if repressed.
10) stops women cheating
Female genital mutilation has been dated back to Egypt during the fifth century b.c.
There are varying degrees of mutilation some practically do nothing some completely ruin the girl.
Anyways the moral of this story is that I am going to open up a multi purpose clinic.
*I am going to make girls faces pretty all over the world and stop them turning yellow.
*Any man who suspects his girl of cheating can bring her to me and I'll fix his/her problems.
*Any man who cant keep up with the girls sex drive can also bring her to me for sex drive reduction.
*Any girl who is worried about the odour she produces can come into the clinic for odour neutralisation
*For all of those woman who don’t want their children’s brains to fill with fluid during child birth or who don’t want toxic breast milk can come to me for a quick and easy de-tox program
*Any woman who is at risk of vaginal cancer can come to any of my clinics which will have a preventative measure at its disposal
*Women who don’t get sex and are getting neuroses from suppressing their desire can come to me for psychological analysis.
Now all I need is a pair of scissors, some cotton, a needle, a bit of ice and maybe a razor blade for the bits scissors cant handle and a big sign that says;
FEMALE HEALTH AND BEAUTY THERAPIST, USING TRADITIONAL AFRICAN AND EGYPTIAN HEALTH AND BEAUTY TECHNIQUES THAT HAVE BEEN AROUND SINCE BEFORE THE PHAROES........
