I do think it is weird to have your pee pee cut off.

There is a difference between one's personal attitudes and whether something is "not normal." For example, I personally think it's weird that people choose to be jabbed thousands of times with tiny needles to have ink injected into their skin; I don't extend that to saying that people with tattoos are not normal.

Saying that something isn't your thing, or activates your own sense of squick, is very different from labeling that thing as not normal.

The former is an expression of personal taste, preference, or choices; the latter is a derogatory statement about other people. They're not the same thing, and they're not saying the same thing. When talking about fraught topics, it's sometimes helpful to pay close attention to what you're actually communicating, especially if you don't want to derail the conversation - or get called out for saying something derogatory if you meant to just express your personal perspective for your own body.
