Unfortunately yes - it's known as circumcision. It's common in Judaism and Islam for religious reasons and in the USA for cultural ones.

Cutting off a clitoris is hardly comparable to circumcision!!

I agree that (that version of) FGM is a lot worse than circumcision, but they're both genital mutilation as far as I'm concerned.

Removal of the clitoral hood is another form of FGM and is directly analogous to male circumcision.

Speaking as someone with some personal experience of this matter, I think it's unhelpful to say the least to liken male circumcision to FGM.

The more you study genital cutting, the more you realize that every aspect of male and female circumcision is precisely same. The claims, the truths, the lies, everything. Genital cutting is a gross human rights violation in BOTH sexes. BOTH need to stop.

The day that FGM is eradicated, that will be the day I start campaigning for an end to circumcising boys.

#FGM will not be eradicated as long as the #circumcision of boys continues. They both continue and endure for the exact same reasons. Make excuses for one, those are the same excuses for the other. Both must be eradicated at the same time, or none will. #i2
