Democrats support bill that would legalize female genital mutilation
Las Vegas Review-Journal ^ | 03/01/2017 | Victor Joecks

The Nevada Senate will soon consider a bill that would overturn Nevada’s ban on female genital mutilation, and Senate Democrats are tripping over themselves to vote for it.

I guess all those Democrat women dressed in white at Trump’s speech last night are really nurses suited up for genital mutilation duty.

If one believes in cultural RELATIVISM, as most Democrats do, then there are no superior cultures or practices, only differences.

It falls under ‘honoring other cultures’. Unbelievably, they think they are virtue signaling to Muslims.

Muzzies. dems have sold their soul to the muzzies. That explains why they invented the “muslim ban” and went ballistic over what they invented.

dems have made muzzies their favorite, fastest-growing solid voting and contribution block, and in return have given muzzies immunity from responsibility for their actions.

Sure, what a great idea!

As long as they allow Male Genital Mutilation for rapists, said procedure to be performed by the victim and her relatives.

But, perhaps we need input from Chris Cuomo and Anthony Weiner on this?

Read the wikipedia article on this subject. A synonym is “genital modification”. There are cosmetic and medical reasons for some of it. Some people want it, but lots of girls have things done against their will.

Men can undergo this. Circumcision is an example.
