Female Genital Mutilation

When it comes to body modification this is the most objected, there are three different tyes of female circumcision,


The removal of the tip of the clitoris;


Total removal of the clitoris and surrounding labia;


The removal of the clitoris and labia and the sewing up of the vagina, leaving only a small opening for urine and menstrual blood - a process known as infibulation.(bbc website posted at the bottom)


this process happens in some parts of Asia and Africa, they rearly just anasthetic or sterile equipmnet, it is often the kitchen siccors a razor and in some cases a piece of broken glass.


this process is seen done on girls as young as three and in some cases girls die from this operation.


it is iligal in some parts of the world inclding the UK, it is seen as a reglious and clean process to go through.


if you ask me its some people who want to be butchers.
