That is exactly what it does. In some societies in Africa and to a lesser degree the middle east a woman has no chance of ever marrying if she hasn’t been altered because they fear she will be loose so they make sure that she will never have any pleasure. It is mostly practised by Africans nowdays but some ME countries like Syria still do it. It is estimated that 80% of women in Egypt have been circumcised. I don’t understand why the femnists in this country ignore this sort of thing?

The object I thought was that the woman would never receive pleasure from sex...ie; isn’t the clitoris made non-functional?

If I'm not mistaken, it isn't the clitoris that's removed, but the prepuce--the homologue to the foreskin in the male. The prepuce is attached to the apex of the labia minora. During coitus, the penis tugs on the labia, which in turn tug on the prepuce, pulling it back-and-forth over the clitoris, and it's this stimulation that results in pleasure. Take away the prepuce, and you remove the pleasure from coitus.

community elders are being flown from the Horn of Africa to carry out the procedures. Which is why God invented the X-22 fighter.

Ms McCulloch said that men were becoming more vocal in opposition to female circumcision. “I’ve talked to some fathers who’ve made clear to their wives that they don’t want this done to their daughters — only for them to go out and come back to find their girls circumcised,” she said.

American feminists will say that patriarchal oppression must have somehow forced the mothers to enter into contracts to have their daughters mutilated.

The NHS is offering to reverse female circumcision amid concerns that there are 500 victims a year with no prosecutions

Female genital mutilation often includes attempted clitoridectomy. In such cases it may actually be better for the patient to have an incompetent surgeon.

When are the Brits going to stand up and tell these barbarians that, if they want to stay, they’re going to have to abandon their primitive rituals and follow British law — no accomodations, no compromises? Maybe, the dole, the steady eroding of their traditions, the cheapening of the culture, the mind-numbing political correctness have taken the fight out of them. I really don’t think, sadly, that they’d be able to retake the Falklands now.
