Not Quite Honest!
There are different stages of female circumcision (AKA Genital Mutilation).
"The main three are
Type I, removal of the
clitoral hood, almost invariably accompanied by removal of the
clitoris itself (
clitoridectomy);
Type II, removal of the clitoris and
inner labia; and
Type III (
infibulation), removal of all or part of the inner and
outer labia, and usually the clitoris, and the fusion of the wound, leaving a small hole for the passage of urine and menstrual blood—the fused wound is opened for intercourse and childbirth.
[4] Around 85 percent of women who undergo FGM experience Types I and II, and 15 percent Type III, though Type III is the most common procedure in several countries, including Sudan, Somalia, and Djibouti.
[5] Several miscellaneous acts are categorized as
Type IV. These range from a symbolic pricking or piercing of the clitoris or labia, to cauterization of the clitoris, cutting into the vagina to widen it (
gishiri cutting), and introducing corrosive substances to tighten it.
[4]"
The female clitoris has less nerve endings (about 10 000) then the male foreskin (20 000) but the nerve endings on the female are closer together thus making the clitoris more sensitive and a bigger pain in the ass to work with...
All types of female circumcisions, except medically necessary ones, are criminal just as all types for men, except medically necessary ones, should be criminal as well. It's slowly going there but not fast enough in my opinion.
