      Rightfully banning physicians from performing FGM given the argument of stopping propagation is inherently hypocritical given male genital mutilation. If we support arguments that a boy's mutilation is medically valid given the fear that perpetrators would seek unsanitary black-market practitioners, then FGM is also valid medically. We're not analyzing the morally bankrupt practice itself, we're propagating and condoning the practice given the pseudo-morality of utilizing the steadiest trained hands and sharpest knives.

It would feel a lot more genuine if you men actually started conversations about male circumcision outside of this context, but you never do.

    When my son was born, the hospital and the doctors tried their hardest to convince me to circumcise him. They even let me observe a circumcision. The procedure used no anesthesia or painkiller, and the baby boy was crying his lungs out. I never felt such hatred for a medical professional in my life.

    Genital mutilation is absolutely disgusting. Nobody should be subjected to forced genital cutting. To remove part of someone’s body, especially their privates, without their mature and informed consent is atrocious and shouldn’t be legal. Not even if it’s part of your culture or religion, not even if you think it’s for their own good, and not even if you think you have the right to because it’s your child. Bodily autonomy is a human right, and violating it like this should be illegal.

    Both FGM and male circumcision should be totally banned regardless of the religion of the victim. In most cases, the age of the victim is such that they do not acquiesce to the mutilation. If such mutilation is required by the parents' religion, then the children need to be safe until they are mature enough and attain the age of 18 so they can make their own decision. Mutilators, regardless of religion, should be subject to extremely heavy fines and years of prison as they can never undo the physical outrage they are responsible for. Parents are ultimately responsible for their children and should also be subject to fines and imprisonment should an "accident" befall the child.

      For boys it's for what they believe medical reasons. To prevent infections and problems later. For woman it's just for control, they sometimes cut off everything and leave a tiny hole which needs to be cut open when she is married. Sex is basically torture so obviously she isn't sleeping around. It's a totally different situation. More akin to them cutting off your entire eggplant without anesthesia so you don't have sex but when you're old enough they cut you up and stick something in the wound.

      Also, "much harder for men"? Really? Now don't get me wrong, I don't believe in boys being circumcised. BUT COME ON! Men still get to have orgasms and it's all ok. Women's ability to equally have an orgasm often completely excised. If men were disabled from having an orgasm the practice would have ended before it even began. Women have never, especially in the cultures where FGM is prevalent, had complete control over their bodies and what happens to them. And as an ending note. Understanding others, or at least trying should be a fundamental goal. Because this video looks at an issue from a female pic doesn't lessen yours. What we go through, the joys and heartache, pain, doesn't mean others aren't going through things too.

    If “female circumcision” was simply snipping off the clitoral hood, it would still be bad, more or less the same as male foreskin circumcision. But when the entire clitoris is sliced off, it’s not “circumcision.” It’s forced genital amputation.

      We have it for males because there is almost no negative consequences to a baby if the cutting is done.

      I am so glad I had it when I was super young and didn’t have to feel the pain that my father did.

    It is imperative that we pursue and criminally prosecute the criminals and monsters that perform and in any way participate in this obviously criminal act of FGM. The criminals that perform this criminal act need to be jailed for lengthy periods of time and should be sued into oblivion to compensate the victims. We need legislation to outlaw this heinous practice that is unacceptable in any civilized country. What’s next if legislation is not passed and enforcement is not vigorously enforced? That it’s all right to cut off a woman’s breasts or blind her because women are Second-class downtrodden citizens in backward savage misogynistic societies?

    It's also practised in Canada as well. A personal conversation I had with a young woman from Somalia who told me that "a woman in London, Ontario performs both the original FGM AND sewing the woman up AGAIN AFTER giving birth. How the woman gets' re-opened again 'by the man' is horrific, barbaric and EVIL. It IS an evil practice.

      *FGM has tribal roots, hence why it's most prevalent in Africa. There are non-Muslims who practice FGM such as the Maasai people, and most Muslims around the world don't practice FGM. It's almost unheard of in South Asia where there are large Islamic populations. Those Muslims who practice it do so because of culture and sect, not religion.*

      @notthatsure7795 5 років тому

      ​@@mimilocke5650 The issue of female circumcision is not a religious issue of worship at its origin, but it is an issue due to customs and traditions. Many scholars have said that it is not obligatory for women, and we do not know of a hadith in which the Prophet ordered his wives or daughters to circumcise
      , there is hadith that talk about circumcision but not necessarily about FGM.
      and its not popular in the middle east taking in consideration there is 16 country FGM is mostly practiced in the north african part.
