Could say the same for:

Politics.

Religion.

Ethnic groups.

Sport teams.

Cola preference.

Cutting some bits off your genitals or not.

Operaring systems.

Humans are a hoot, huh?

    Politics at its root is ideals about how to structure society though. It does, however, devolve into a team sports mentality in a lot of cases, which is I think what you're getting at.

    Wait, who the hell is pro genital mutilation!?

    ... Oh wait, Jews do circumcision... siiiiigghhhh

    (I'm also aware some areas of India/middle east do FGM too, but I don't remember if it's for anything close to religous reasons)

    Circumcision happens all over. It's popular in the US, Africa, and Middle east especially.
