What is happening in America to stop Female Genital Mutilation these days? I'm told that only half of the states have enacted legislation prohibiting it and unless I badly misread a message was told that Southern Baptists are now advocating for it to occur.

I find the mutilation of both sexes to be horrible...if it is not a choice, it should be a crime for those who commit the acts of mutilation...

I have heard the most heart breaking stories from some Somalian women of trying to keep their daughters from going through what they have...but, it still happens...these women cannot fully relate to those of us who enjoy sex because they don't...they just can't..I am sad for them.

Comprehension I imagine would be the same as uncircumcised men and men circumcised at birth.

And yet the barbaric circumcision of boys continues.

@FrayedBear that doesn't affect ability to orgasm like female mutilation removing clitoris old African custom so wife won't cheat on husband

@bobwjr I have a problem with that claimof the effect of FGM. The clitoris is merely the tip of the iceberg the nerve strucure extends deeply around the pelvic girdle and can be stimulated from many places not just the clitoris and labia. Think G Spot, vaginal and anal wall stimulation.

@FrayedBear going by female testimony and medical experts retired from medicine myself

@FrayedBear Erm no the clitoris is required. Its removal is only the most minimal version of FGM. The most extreme sews up the vaginal opening and labia.

@Amisja then no sex not original objective take her pleasure away but leave something for him

@bobwjr If it succeeds that is doubly horrendous, but even if it does not, the intention to turn a human into a passive beast of burden, by mutilating them, as you would when castrating a donkey is bad enough. Then to do it without any form of pain control or antiseptic, as it often is, goes quite beyond all reason; and that is without its intended consequences.

@bobwjr eh?

@Amisja Plesse Explain G spot orgasms where only the G spot is stimulated? According to your statement they cannot occur.

@Fernapple simple barbarity. Horse whipping is too good for the perpetrators.

@FrayedBear I was glad I was circumcised and had I had a son would have had him circumcised too. 🙂

@Sticks48 Why were you glad?

@FrayedBear Easier to keep clean and looks better. 🙂

@Sticks48 In nearly 70 years I have never had a problem. As for the aesthetics growing up and going to school with boys, apart from the Jewish ones, who were not circumcised, did not result in any consideration that one looked better than the other - we weren't into sucking each other's penises!

@FrayedBear My dick, my preference. If a woman had ever complained about it maybe l would have felt differently. No complaints from me or them. All is good. ☺

It is one thing to make it illegal and quite another to enforce it. It has been illegal for years in the UK, but because it often takes place in secret, the victims are ashamed to come forward and the legal authorities are nervous about offending ethnic minorities and religions, years went by without a single case being brought to the courts.

Similar to Australia. Another joke is the law that forbids the recruitment of mercenaries for non Australian forces. Recruitment for the IDF has been known to occur through Jewish schools. Such schools receive State funding.

I have treated several girls mostly Somalies. A lot African countries look down on the practice as primitive. It is utterly horrendous

@Amisja just like circumcision of boys.

@Amisja ive had one patient from Chad to shave and prep for surgery, it was shocking and horrifying and very difficult to keep those emotions off my face.

If female genital mutilation was practiced on young boys it would be like cutting their nuts off and sewing up the sack, or totally removing it also. Maybe then the elders would tell them not to cry and it was not that bad. It's just that they cannot get women pregnant any longer.

Switch this back to women and you get a horrible procedure that simply says they cannot enjoy intercourse. The procedure cuts out the clitoris totally and often the labia lips. It allows women to be sewn up tighter than before if needed, and all for the pleasure of the men. Women would be like cattle and have no reason to even look for sex. They are simply for child bearing and a man's pleasure. I personally believe that this practice is a crime that should carry at least a 20 year prison sentence. Anyone connected with it should receive swift justice!

You are 100% correct!!!

If it is happening in the USA, it may be performed by women in the Islamic community, by a woman in the community that performs this "ritual".

Some still take their young daughters to the country of origin to have it performed there.

BTW, FGM is not part of the Koran and Sharia law.
This was common practice at least 1,000 years or more before Islam. There are still tribes in Africa and Asia who still perform FGM, who are not Muslim. One million girls in the world each year are mutilated! Every year!

It is entirely cultural

@Amisja you are correct! When I first heard about FGM was when I had to shave and prep a young woman for open heart surgery, shave front and back completely. She was from Chad and no one warned me about what I would see. Everything had been cut off, scars from large sutures closing up everything but a small hole. They had to catherize her from the outside. It was a horrific mass of scar tissue. She was so embarrassed and I tried to calm her down. I've never forgotten her face so frightened and ashamed.

I still say that we need to lock up all extremist Christians and Muslims in a big room with all of the fire arms both groups seem to love so damn much and... ya know.... See what happens. This just provides a stronger case for my argument.

Fucking Southern Baptist fuckwits.
