Aye because it harms girls in ways it does not harm men. It cripples them sexually which is the intent. Many die from the procedure as well.

You’re generalizing from an anecdote. Even if you can find one man whose subjective individual experience was improved, there are others whose experience was harmed greatly. That’s why it should be up to the individual, like in the case you presented.

Exactly. And the "she wouldn't know comment" is obviously baseless. FGM is also deemed a religious requirement. That

What I've cited is the clear international medical consensus, which is that the public health benefits of

The reasons why the supposed health benefits from your WebMD screenshot can't justify child #circumcision are explained in this article by 38 leading MDs: https://pediatrics.aappublications.org/content/131/4/796 …
Conditions that a child doesn't have & is unlikely to get can't justify preventative amputation. #i2
