I would hope all the United States eventually outlaw this barbaric practice totally - how it could be linked to religion and worship demonstrates how primitive Islam is (if it can be termed a religion at all - I prefer to think of it as a cult).
Any doctor seeing a woman who has been so malformed after the fact should be obligated to report it as well - we must stop this in our country.
Because people desire it for their children (who have no say) I link it up there with child abuse, pedophilia and battering.
