Not entirely analogous in my opinion. How voluntary is FGM? And are children old enough to consent to an unalterable procedure?

Is male circumcision alterable?

I believe in theory possible, you can still stretch and cover, but obviously it is won't be the foreskin. Caveat not a a doctor : ) But male circumcision doesn't make physical relations painful.

How much of this painfulness is due to poor surgical technique & complications? That is the problem I have with these FGM studies which conflate all of this.
