98% of Somali Girls are put Through Female Genital Mutilation

What is on the other side of the ledger, so to speak, for Somali immigrants that makes their contribution to American culture, a net positive?

Higher intelligence and better long distance runners .

 

[SaxonJackson]

Wow!

How long is your hair, after all these years?

Cutting hair doesn't produce blood. And, at it's longest, my hair reached my butt back in the 70s.

So you backtrack on that "god's design" "no matter the age" stuff. Good.

If you argued that circumcision should wait until adulthood, that would be a valid argument. I would disagree, since the benefits far outweigh the downside, but you would have a point.

Comparing circumcision to FGM is pure sophistry, as you know.

Just so you know, I brought this up years ago and the deranged Joe took issue with ME saying it was not mostly Christians engaging in it. He then started calling me, and I quote, "Islamophobic ****" and would not stop, so he is forever on ignore.

The Party of Women, who Stands Up For Women (but only if they can murder future women in the womb, ofc)

Minn democrats look the other way and do nothing about this

 

[Seymour Flops]

I am always amazed at what democrats are willing to defend as long as trump or trumpers oppose it.

The party of women don't know what a woman is, but they do know that a woman should be allowed to mutilate her daughter's genitals, if that is dey culcha.

If trump cared about democrats calling him nazi all the time, he could stop it in one day. All he would have to do is announce that he hates Nazis and is having his DOJ Investigate american nazis to prosecute them under rico or whatever.

Democrat congress folk would immediately swap out through ukrainian flag pins for nazi flag pins

When I was a kid a lot larger percent of us got their tonsils removed than now. It happened to me and now they say it is harmful.

Also, many parents give male babies short "boy" haircuts before they can even talk to say what gender they want to be!

Anyway, I hope no victims of FGM are reading this thread, since these irrelevant comparisons are so disrespectful to their suffering and loss.

Having one's foreskin lopped off is mutilation of the highest order. The most sensitive areas are removed.

Your argument is with the doctor's at the Mayo clinic, not with me.

Circumcision (male) - Mayo Clinic

Circumcision might have various health benefits, including:

• Easier hygiene. Circumcision makes it simpler to wash the penis. Still, boys who haven't been circumcised can be taught to wash regularly beneath the foreskin.
• Lower risk of urinary tract infections (UTIs). The risk of UTIs in males is low. But these infections are more common in males who haven't been circumcised. Serious infections early in life can lead to kidney problems later.
• Lower risk of sexually transmitted infections. Men who have been circumcised might have a lower risk of certain sexually transmitted infections, including HIV. But it's still key to have safe sex, which includes use of condoms.

If you know of medical information showing the benefits of female genital mutilation, I'll be happy to look at it.

No wonder Ilhan Omar is so angry

 

[Chuz Life]

FGM does not prevent or inhibit its victims from having sexual intercourse or from having children. It is intended to eliminate the problem of females enjoying sexual intercourse.

I wonder how they explain tardz who enjoy anal.

 

[luiza]

Great to see the improving situation .
Already down 2% points .
Carry on the good work Somalia .

 

[Seymour Flops]

I wonder how they explain tardz who enjoy anal.

Muslim men prefer anal, but not with their wives. Especially if their wives are not able to have sex due to illness (or genital mutilation).

On 2 December 2015, at the Theresienbad swimming pool in the Austrian capital Vienna, a 10-year-old boy was raped. The perpetrator, a 20-year-old Iraqi refugee who had arrived in the country two months earlier, claimed that he was motivated by not having sex for four months.

The crime was not made public knowledge until February 2016, with the police giving the reason as to protect the victim. Thomas Keiblinger, spokesman of police in Vienna, denied that the incident had been covered up because the perpetrator was a refugee.

The perpetrator said that the sight of the boy "aroused [him] so much [he] could not hold back" and that he had not had sex for four months as his partner had been ill since giving birth.

For those who do not remember when this story came out, there was great outcry among the American left that the rapist's claim of a "sexual emergency" should mitigate the crime and that the culture that encouraged such acts was definitely no worse than ours.

 

[Failzero]

Huh, I wonder what they think of male baby circumcisions?

I thought Arabs and Islamists were GTG with that ?

 

[Seymour Flops]

Good point.

So now cnm has two reasons to criticize Muslims.

I wonder if she will?

 

[Seymour Flops]

Are these women forced into these procedures, or are they culturally accepted?

You actually asked that question?

You think women volunteer for that shit?

 

[cnm]

Good point.

I think all the Bronze Age desert superstitions' obsession with male and female genital mutilation is batshit crazy.

But here we are.

What is female genital mutilation? ​

Everything you need to know about FGM and what UNICEF is doing to stop it​

[...]​

Numerous factors contribute to the persistence of the practice. Yet in every society in which it occurs, FGM is an expression of deeply rooted gender inequality.​

​

Some societies see it as a rite of passage. Others use it to suppress a girl’s sexuality or ensure her chastity. FGM is not endorsed by Islam or Christianity, but religious texts are commonly deployed to justify it.​

​

Where FGM is most prevalent, communities may deem it a prerequisite for marriage or inheritance. This makes it difficult for parents to abandon the practice. Families who don’t participate face ostracism, their daughters at risk of becoming ineligible for marriage. ​

Nearly all of the girls who are put through this are not old enough to consent.

It is absurd to even talk about teen girls choosing this.

Yeah. Voluntary.
