A female who has FGM is usually 7 or more years old, and she remembers all the pain. Plus, FGM causes loss of all pleasure (which is part of the reason it’s done (which is pretty messed up), and as a method to control the woman and keep her from “straying”, plus it can cause problems with menstration, including infection, and it can cause great pain, physical damage and even death in childbirth. So, while I’m still undecided on how I feel about circumcision, I don’t think there’s any doubt whatsoever that FGM is far, far more dangerous and causes problems that male circumcision does not cause. Not to mention the fact that FGM is done SOLEY for the pleasure of her future husband, circumcision is generally done for hygienic reasons and has nothing to do with the pleasure of another person, or the other person’s control over the male.
