    Genital mutilation is a terrible practice often done on unconsenting young children for bs cultural reasons. These traditions need to stop. Everyone has a right to genital integrity!

      Everyone, regardless of male, female or intersex.

      Christians and Jews dont get an exception.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female_genital_mutilation

    FGM harms women’s physical and emotional health throughout their lives.[62][63] It has no known health benefits.[11]

    There is no valid justification for FGM, cultural or otherwise. I do not care about comparisons to male circumcision. I do not care about the concerns of cultural relativism.

    It is a brutal practice performed by barbaric people butchering women in a soulless, sinister, deeply cynical, and horrifically ignorant crime against humanity.
