Well, your spelling if off but you are correct, the term is female circumcision. The practise still exists in many parts of the Muslim and Hindu world. The reasoning behind it is that if a woman can derive no pleasure from sex, she will not cheat on her husband.
It is quite frankly a barbaric and primitive custom which should be tossed on the trash heap of history.

It's still practiced in some African cultures, not just some Islamic ones. And not all Islamic cultures practice it either.
It isn't called female circumcision anymore. Circumcision for boys means cutting off the foreskin only. What they do to the girls is cut the clitoris itself out (sometimes without antiseptic or anesthetic) which would be the equivalent of chopping off the glans of the penis. It is called FGM for female gential mutilation. Fortunately, some of these cultures are beginning to abandon it.

Their clitoris' are removed by men so they
1. Will never get any pleasure out of any type of sex.
and
2. Will never stray away from their men (sex isnt pleasurable why would they go look for another man ect)
It is a discusting act of perversian.

I heard when the girl is about 12yrs old they do cut the skin around the clit off.....for it is a sin to have pleasure!! But not all Islamic follow this sad abuse...only the very sick ones!

It was widely practised in Africa, but was a tribal tradition (since banned) rather than a religious one. It is not a practise that is demanded by Islam - nor do I know of it being practised by muslims to fulfil that aim.

It's not only Islamic women. The practice is still common in most African countries. But yes - it's true. They also sew the vagina closed to make a smaller hole so that her husband gets more pleasure. So she rips and bleeds every single time she has sex.
