No it is illegal and unethical to have the procedure done especially to a 10 year old. Unless is is absolutely medically necessary. The procedure can cause unspoken emotional and physical damage to yo child especially later in life.

No, it's not okay. And no, you cannot get this done in the U.S. And yes, you can go to prison for a very long time for sexual mutilation, sexual abuse and battery for permanently ruining your daughter by removing her clitoris. Apparently you want your daughter to have permanent disabling mental problems and never be able to enjoy sexual intercourse. What the he** is wrong with people like you?
You can't call this procedure "custom" in other countries. It's just plain sick and disgusting and wrong. The same countries that practice this also often sew up the vagina so that a man gets to cut it open on wedding night to make sure his virgin wife is "pure". People like this should be locked away forever for being evil and disgusting.

What kind of circumcision do you want? There are 4 types of female genital cutting.
Type I - Removing or splitting the clitoral hood
Type II - Removing the clitoris
Type III - Infibulation or sewing the labia shut except for a small hole to allow urine and menstrual fluid to pass.
Type IV - Scarring the vagina or burning it or pricking it with needles.
I believe these practices are horrible. Allow her to make her own decisions about her sexual lifestyle and especially her own body.
Please don't perform genital mutilation on your child.
And no, genital mutilation is NOT LEGAL in the United States, and for a good reason.

It is NOT okay; it constitutes child abuse as well as medical malpractice, and if it comes to the attention of authorities here, you could be prosecuted as well as lose all of your parental rights. I think that the idea is utterly disgusting, and cannot imagine why you would even consider doing such a thing.

I think it's crazy how there are so many people who get riled up about FEMALE circumcision but will go happily circumcise their MALE children. Both are both equally unnecessary and harmfull procedures.

i dont know why you would want to, most of these cases are religous related. if thats the case get in touch with someone that preforms male circumscisons and see what your options are. be careful though she is a young girl and that can cause lots of damage to parts that may be very well used later.

don't do it .let your son or daughter grow up and decide for themselves whether they are circumcised or not.read this website #4 on the list.this would apply to all ages.

"Female circumcision" is called female genital mutilation in the Unites States. It is illegal and completely unnecessary (and cruel in my opinion).

Hell no! Female circumcision (genital mutilation) is brutal and totally wrong. There is no medical reason for it and it is illegal in most countries of the world.
