FGM

aka Female circumcision. It is a brutal procedure where the clitoris is removed. It takes place in the less sophisticated parts of the world. It is usually performed on young girls. It is intended to stop females from getting sexally stimulated. It is often done at home by medically uncertified people with no anesthetic. Many girls die from this procedure. It violates the Right of the Female. Even though I am a male, I do not think that any girl should have to go through such a procedure.( Initialism; from Female Genital
Mutilation)

I Learned about FGM from an taped episode of Ophra shown by my U.S. History teacher.
