Since you bring it up: FGM is parcitce in this countury now too. I know some east African muslims who send their little girls back to get it done cheaply and with no one asking those "hard questions"

Back in the 70's or 80's there was a (white, american) doctor in Ohio that was doing this. He called it "love surgery" and said that it enhanced a woman's sexual experience. BS!!!!
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.
