    I'm not saying its right, but its a cultural problem, I read a pair of books done by a Saudi Woman of high station who wasn't mutilated and her husband preferred her natural but when she tried to stop the procedure in Egypt if I recall right she couldn't persuade them to stop even with the help of religious scholars saying its not IN the Koran so not required and Allah made women to enjoy sex with a man. Well what can one do if men won't marry women in some cultural groups if they don't get cut up its a lot of pressure?

    As a man though its not important to me its a woman's issue so try to fix it on your end.

    The faking orgasms was a joke because men who are circumcised have a great time. A woman who has her clitoris removed has no sexual pleasure. And the circumcision isn’t about fear of masturbation or sexual pleasure it is about health for one. The foreskin traps bacteria etc Circumcision has never stopped sexual pleasure and you are just making up another untrue fact

    You don't think other cultures have justifications for female circumcision also?

    Compared to what.

    I Never said otherwise. In fact, I was very clear on the practise being one of barbarians.

    No,, it really isn't. It started off as a procedure with the intention to stop masturbation and later, when Freudian science and Puritan culture died out, the justification was re-rationalised as one about "health", but in reality thete are no such benefits.

    And so does the "female folds".

    I said that the purpose was to do so. This is a fact and facts can never be untrue.
