Female Genital Mutilation

This is a practice rife in many communities, and I've just noticed a news item on the BBC, recording another case.

However, isn't there a double standard when it come to male genital mutilation?

Circumcising a baby, is, in my opinion, genital mutilation, yet seems tolerated.

If here is a medical reason for the operation, there's no problem, but it shouldn't be tolerated on religious grounds.

Disgusting.

100% agree. Yet it seems almost forbidden to raise this as an issue.

I don't think male and female circumcision should be compared - they're very very different. But, I agree that they're both forms of mutilation and should be banned for boys too. Unless, like Bonce says, there is a medical reason.

I think we can all agree that there is a big difference in terms of the damage done by female and male circumcision but the bottom line is that in both cases it is needless and cruel mutilation.

FGM is disgusting and needless, and is based on the enjoyment of sex, (or not). However, I believe, and may be wrong, but when this practice was first started, such as with the Jewish religion, it was based on medical concerns, later to be (possibly) included in religious practices.

I thought it was an outdated African tribal mysogynist practice designed to minimise female sexual pleasure and thereby infidelity that is banned throughout the world including the African nations with the highest prevalence e.g. Somalia.

You're right Wander. I didn't make clear that I was talking about circumcision, which somebody had mentioned.

Sorry I didn't see that. I was going to add that whilst I have no particular opinion about male circumcision (other than nobody's getting near me with a knife  ) the woman's pleasure has always been a massive part of my sex life and I love to give women orgasms so I not only hate the idea of clitoral removal but apart from denying women a fundamental right I'm pretty sure it takes away pleasure from males that make love to them so it's stupid as well as immoral. In that sense it denies both men and women.

Grow up. Getting pleasure from giving pleasure is a natural part of any healthy sex life.

But no one writes it on a football forum.

lol

Nat you’re so frigid

Ah I think I get it now!

It’s no wonder that Wander has been caught speeding numerous times. It must be due to when his Mrs is giving him a blowjob in the car and him hitting the go faster peddle with sheer excitement!

I can only hope the castors on his armchair can take the strain.

I simply choose not to post about my sex life on a football forum. But rest assured, most of the things written on the bathroom walls at Whittam International are true.

Careful Wander, you'll have HN on here in a minute complaining about the filth, and no doubt debauchery

Yeah, must be why I know you’ve got a singed fanny, wonky tits and have been rogered numerous times by Nugent, Cecil and Robert fucking Earnshaw
