This is for GIRLS. Clitoridectomies...AKA ISLAM.
“Alice Dreger and Ellen K. Feder from Bioethics Forum have unearthed a 2007 study in which a doctor from Cornell University defends the practice of surgically cutting girls’ clitorises. Disturbing, but his follow-up treatment is even worse.
The paper in question appeared several years ago in the Journal of Urology. “Nerve Sparing Ventral Clitoroplasty: Analysis of Clitoral Sensitivity and Viability” by Jennifer Yang, Diane Felsen, and Dix P. Poppas described in dry clinical terms how Poppas believes he has developed a way to remove part of a girl’s clitoris without damaging their ability to have sexual sensation. Though the practice sounds a lot like female genital mutilation (and in strictly literal terms, it is) Poppas is not cutting into their genitals to make women less sexually inclined - he’s doing it because someone decided that their clitorises were too big. Usually, this someone is a physician. With the parents consent and at the physician’s suggestion, Poppas cuts into the shaft of the clitoris and removes a section, without, he hopes, damaging the nerves.”

‘Just a little nick’ folks. Even Steyn writes on this.
Yoo hoo.
Guess what......
It’s being done as a ‘pilot’/study. At Cornell.
It is my understanding that while there are Cornell professors who have connections with the Medical College, there are many doctors working at the medical college and hospital in New York who will never travel to Ithaca.
Thank you, Captain Pedantic.
I can’t read the article.
I just hate puking.
This “man” should be imprisoned and I’m being generous.
All of the panelists, with the exception of Nachman, the WCMC professor, agreed that parents should not be able to decide whether or not their intersex child undergoes surgery. In most cases, parents must make these decisions within the first months of their child’s birth, according to Tamar-Mattis.
Glad you are happy with the results.
Circumcision is extremely common and not too much is happening about it.
Me three.
To my knowledge, circumcision does not interfere with sexual pleasure/satisfaction. That is the point of clitoridectomies. That is the point I was making—doing the SAME THING to boys as this.
