The only real good argument I can make against the current form of monarchy in some Western countries is that it would suck to be born into a royal family if you don't want to become a king or queen. You wouldn't have a "normal" upbringing at any rate.
You can say no thanks to the throne of course but there would still be a good deal of pressure and of course filthy paparazzis and so on.
Personally I'm starting to think that the monarchy is getting outdated, but on the other hand it would be painful for the nation to get rid of a 1200 year long tradition. Plus, who wants to have some pointy-elbowed ******* as head of state anyway. But you got to break some eggs if you want to make an omelette, right?
