Reply #33: I agree that circumcision is mutilation [View All]

and most definitely agree with waiting until adulthood and/or sexual maturity, for the person to decide what permanent, painful alterations would happen to their body. However, chopping off the clitoris is not the same as slicing off foreskin. Neither is right, or acceptable, but female GM is much more severe. I remember finding out about circumcision as a child and asking my embarrassed mother what the reason for it was. She just mumbled something about hygiene. I knew that was not right, because people shower and keep clean, especially private areas. I was 7 years old.
I truly am sorry you were mutilated, and I really am not trying to diminish your suffering. But at least you can still climax. These women who have had their clitoris removed, cannot. That difference needs to be distinguished.
