Never, and boys should only be circumcised for medical reasons and not religious ones in my opinion too!

None - it's a way a certain element of society has dreamt up to retain control over all aspects of a woman's life. There is no medical justification, it is just a vicious form of torture. And what makes it worse is that it is generally the older generation of women who continue to carry this out on their children. A case of "I had to suffer, so I'm going to make sure she does, too"? As far as I can see, it's right up there with foot binding of Chinese women - dreamt up because some men found a foot 3" long to be attractive?!?!

I don't see any justification for it, especially not under the conditions it's performed under (no anesthesia or sanitation). I don't approve of male circumcision either, unless there's a medical reason for it (like if the boy keeps getting infection after infection).

There can be no justification for the mutilation of a child!

No, and circumcision is an awful thing to do to a boy as well.

Never Ever. The reasons they do it is cuz they "Remove what they don't need," or if they don't do it "She'd become a harlot." Or they will not marry her off. I STRONGLY DISAGREE. A woman can be successful, virtueous, faithful, whole, and married without that barbaric mutiltion!

No. The people who perform it probably think it is right because the results are so painfull I believe sex is not a pleasure hence the reason. It is cruel and unforgivable

No.None at all. I remember seeing a programme about it a few years ago, and it was absolutely horrifying what they put these young girls through.

None whatsoever.It is a barbaric practice that is carried out at the orders of men.It is abusive and totally unjustified.
