Female circumcision is barbaric. It is not right. I see your point, but the clitoris and the penis are different things. Cutting a woman there could cause loss of stimulation and sex drive. I'm sure it serves other purposes that a ob/gyn or a biologist could tell you as well. In some African countries they do it, as you probably already know, and sometimes they cut part of the clitoris itself--not just the hood. It would be like cutting off part of the male's penis--not just the foreskin. That's wrong, and it should be stopped!"



I can't believe your ignorance.

First this:
"I could never know what a male goes through in being circumcised, but it seems a better alternative to having foreskin."

You don't understand.

"My boyfriend is circumcised and he is fine with it."
Does he really feel that way? I bet you never asked him and even if he did feel bad about it he probably wouldn't tell you. He might not even understand what he had lost.

Then you say:
"Cutting a woman there could cause loss of stimulation and sex drive."

That is EXACTLY what happens to lots of us guys. You don't want it done to yourself so how can you do it to us?

And you say this:
"Female circumcision is barbaric."

When it is VERY similar to male circumcision. You say:
"but the clitoris and the penis are different things"

But the fact of the matter is the clitoris and penis are the same. All babies start as girls. Some change into guys and the clitoris turns into a penis and the hood of the clitoris becomes the foreskin. So if cutting the hood of the clitoris is barbaric to you why would think to cut off a guys foreskin? It's the same thing. I would never do that to you so how can you do that to me? And guys only have one penis. They don't have three orgasms to choose from like girls. Our penis is all we have. How can you take that away from us?

You and all the others like you are superficial, hypocritical, and ignorant. You are all insensitive to what others care about and you are selfish. I'm not name-calling because that is how you are. You don't care how you could hurt guys physically or emotionally and you don’t care about their quality of life. You only care about a "clean penis". It's true that some guys come out of the operation fine and feel good about it but there are also lots of guys who get screwed up by it and most don't want to talk about it.
