Hmm, I think a great
deal of the
problem most people have with
Female Genital Mutilation is
ignorance. There are
2 types.
1. Full removal of the clitoris and labia (both inner and outer}. This is what most people think of.
2. Removal of the labia which helps expose the clitoris.
I am aware that most often number one is performed, but sometimes a woman will want number two voluntarily, and this is the key.
If a person wants to pierce, prod, remove, etc. any part of their body, what business is it of mine? None. If any bodily change occurs, from ear piercing to circumcision without the concent of the person receiving the modification, then it is wrong. The effects may be different, but the effect is the same. "Does a person have domain over their own bodies?"
Hell yes.
