Because you men on GWS are so blatantly sexist, do you approve of female genital mutilation and/or think that it is worse than male circumcision? I wouldn't put it past many of you, considering your degrading comments about women in general.

I would like to get "Guns Fan's" opinion on this.

ummmm, of course i don't approve of female genital mutilation. and it is NOT the same as male circumcision. there is nothing wrong with male circumcision. it is actually healthy. so yeah, female genital mutilation is worse than male circumcision. and i'm not sexist either, that would be you.

Any mature, adult female that would even consider female genital mutilation should consult a therapist. Most of it is done in countries where little girls have no choice but to do it based on their culture. We, of course having never been through the experience, cannot possibly imagine how painful it is. Aside from the pain, infections, and diseases that it causes, the memory of it would probably scar the girl for life. It's not like it's done when they are a child either. The consequence? If you decide to get married and have sex...your husband would have to literally cut you open with a knife. Can you possibly imagine how painful that would be? Would any person still be in the mood for sex? Just some ideas for thought.

I think female circumcision is a deplorable and horrible practice to control and degrade women.
I knew an African woman from Ghana who was mutilated and she said the shame of being so horrible in that area was more than she could bear, especially when she moved here to the States.
Doctors were aghast at how she even managed to deliver her children. She eventually had cosmetic surgery to repair the damage that was done to her as a child, but she still carries the emotional scars.
So, in my opinion, it's not circumcision......it is MUTILATION...in all of it's ugliness.

There was a question by a man recently on here, saying how come you have male circumsions and not female? I think any men that would agree with it don't know the biological procedure for female circumsion.

As female circumsion woiuld involve cutting of the clitoris and labia (the equivilent of cutting the male penis head off) meaning aboslutely no sexual pleasure in life ever and in some cultures sewing up the vagina till wedding day this can't be compared to male circumsion.

You do get a lot fo woman haters and male haters on here.

Why are you so angry? Here you are calling all of these lovely men sexist pigs while you are over in other categories asking the gay guys how many times a day your best friend who is a gay boy should be masturbating, while advertising the frequency you your self go at it? Bottom line is this, you are a very angry, confused, young girl of 17 who should not be going around calling names. You should grow up. Circumcision is merely removal of the foreskin of the penis. It does no harm. F.G.M. is very harmful, you should do some research before you go off. You really make your self look like an idiot.

Chani, while there have been some men here who have been blatantly sexist, not all men here are and there have also been women here who have been blatantly sexist themselves.
All mutilation is wrong of course, whether it be a girl living in a third world country having her clitoris cut off or having the whole vaginal area mutilated or a baby boy who's having a circumcision without anaesthetic in western countries such as ours.

Becuase your labeling all men on GWS as 'sexist' that makes you sexist yourself.

To answer your question, I think ANY type of genital mutilation is horrible regardless of the gender.

Since when does Men on this section approve "female genital mutilation"? I personally don't approve male or female genital mutilation

You're confuse.

If it hurts physically, emotionally and morally,
if it gives diseases,
if it impedes the normal biological functioning of the body, and
if it may be lethal,
then it should be forbidden.

So yes, for all those reasons I'm against FGMs.

I'm sure most of the trolls you speak of don't believe in any of the crap that they say on here. Most of them are trying to stir up a reaction, I would bet money on that.

And as Shivers said, we have good guys on here that are not sexist, too. :)

Of course; the men are sexist pigs, and the woman innocent lil' angels. Aren't you being sexist right here?

No, I don't approve of it. Read my post: http://iblognews.wordpress.com/2007/12/01/circumcision-a-human-rights-violation/
''F.G.M. is worse [...]'' and ''Although F.G.M. does remove almost all nerve endings, whereas circumcision removes a good portion.)'' So you see, I don't think it's worse.

Your point was...?
