>Detroit -- Federal prosecutors unveiled charges Thursday against the mothers of two 7-year-old girls from Minnesota whose genitalia were cut during a religious procedure earlier this year.
>Haseena Halfal, 34, of Plymouth, Minnesota, and Zainab Hariyanawala, 31, were indicted five months after federal prosecutors unveiled the first female genital mutilation case in U.S. history.
>The mothers were charged with female genital mutilation and conspiracy to commit female genital mutilation, according to the indictment, which was unsealed Thursday.
>Halfal is a U.S. citizen and has custody of her daughter and a son, defense lawyer Dan Homstad told The News. He said he plans a vigorous defense.
>"This is a very complex case and there are a lot of cultural issues at play that the (Dawoodi Bohra) community up here is struggling with," Homstad said. "I represent two very caring and intelligent parents of two wonderful children. This arrest, of course, is very hard on the family."
>Halfal was arrested at her home Thursday by the FBI and arraigned in federal court in St. Paul, her lawyer said. She was released on bond and is expected to make an initial appearance Sept. 21 in Detroit federal court.
>The status of Hariyanawala, whose hometown was not immediately available Thursday, was unclear and her lawyer did not respond to messages seeking comment.
>Before Thursday, six people had been charged in a conspiracy to cut prepubescent girls as part of a religious procedure practiced by some members of the Dawoodi Bohra, a small sect of Shia Muslims from India.
...
>The lead defendant is Dr. Jumana Nagarwala of Northville, who is accused of mutilating the genitalia of the two Minnesota girls at a Livonia clinic in February.

Jace Turner
If it's allowed for males, it should be allowed to be done to females. Equal treatment.
Dominic Baker
So can women you retard. You can even find accounts from women who've had their genital mutilated making the same ridiculous claims you hear from men about how it doing nothing to affect pleasure, and how great sex is and how they have no trouble achieving orgasm. The argument against it doesn't hinge on some subjective measure of pleasure, it hinges on the idea that no one has the right to permanently alter their infant child's body for no real(i.e. not religious nonsense or the even more nonsensical aesthetics or tradition) reason.
Jeremiah Bennett
Weird how fgm is almost always done by women at the request of other women. And yet they blame patriarchy
Owen Campbell
What's the big deal? Baby boys are circumcised and everyone loves it.
Eli Powell
removal of a woman's clitoris is nothing remotely similar to the removal of the male foreskin. that's like comparing a haircut to a decapitation.
Nathaniel Howard
Leave it to fucking subhuman shitskin mudslimes to be responsible for the first case of genital mutilation in the US. These "people" are fucking cancer and need to be purged from the face of the earth
Gabriel Hill
White people were the ones to bring FGM into the US first, and they would often cut more severely than the Dawoodi Bohra do.
Because they chop off the clitoris. That's like someone chopping off your dick. It's not the same at all. Do you know how a clitoris works? Learn virgin.
Hudson Edwards

There's nothing to suggest the girls circumcised in this case had their clit removed.
Also the foreskin is nothing like hair. You're off your rocker. The foreskin is living tissue, not dead tissue like hair. No other part of the penis has the highly advanced pattern of fine touch innervation that the foreskin does.
That's not the common form of female circumcision among the Dawoodi Bohra, the group involved in this case.
>Khatna involves cutting the part of the clitoral hood or the prepuce of minor girls that helps protect the clitoral glans. Activists believe that the practice is meant to suppress the sexual urge of a woman, or to even make the experience painful for her. But a 50-year-old U.K.-based English teacher said, “There is simply a tiny slit on the prepuce, which helps expose the clitoris more. Because of this, the sexual pleasure and arousal is much more.”
>The woman’s daughter and granddaughter based in the U.S., where FGM was made illegal in 1996, have undergone the procedure too. “The mutilation that everyone talks about is common among African tribes. But in Dawoodi Bohras, the procedure is meant to facilitate stimulation of the clitoris,” she said.
>According to her, most women refrain from talking about it because of the sexual component involved in it. “I have experienced orgasm. Women who think they have a problematic sex life because of the circumcision should go see a doctor instead of blaming the practice. “I have only sweet memories attached to the day when I was taken for the procedure. My mother and I bonded, the same way my daughter and I did when she was circumcised,” she said, questioning the veracity of the few women who are “pointing fingers at the 1,400-year-old practice”.
>“They lack the knowledge of sexual function. What they need is a therapist,” she added.
All infant mutilation is degenerate and disgusting, vile and evil.
Baby girls have it worse than baby boys.
In both cases however it's all about reducing sexual pleasure and it's done without the person's consent.
Stop mutilating children!
Leo Moore
>Baby girls have it worse than baby boys.
Not really. A lot of South and Southeast Asian Muslim girls are circumcised in ways that are nowhere near as extreme as common types of male circumcision.
A lot of the time Bohra circumcision isn't even removal of the prepuce, it's more like a dorsal slit.
Over in Indonesia, a lot of the time they just prick the girl with a sterilized needle, without even removing any tissue or substantially altering the shape of the genitals.
>BANDUNG, INDONESIA – Thrashing wildly, 5-year-old Reta wails as she is hoisted onto a bed during a circumcision ceremony in a school hall-turned-clinic on Indonesia’s island of Java. “No, no, no,” she cries, punching and kicking as her mother cups her tear-soaked face to soothe her.
>Doctors cheer encouragingly. One of them gently swipes the girl’s genital area with antiseptic and then swiftly pricks the hood of her clitoris with a fresh sewing needle, drawing no blood. The ordeal is over in seconds.
The idea that "female circumcision is worse than male circumcision" doesn't even hold true as a generalization.
But this goes against the dogma of the 90's and 00's where information about these facts was very hard to find and everyone got a bunch of mistaken ideas (like female circumcision doesn't exist outside Africa--wrong, that it has nothing to do with religion--wrong, that it always involves removal of the clitoral glans--wrong, that the motives are totally unlike those of male circumcision--wrong. The list goes on and on).

>Muslims are so inept in bed they have to make sure their women can't feel pleasure otherwise they'll realize they can fling their bean better than abdul can and become lesbian.
>But the defendants maintain they never engaged in any actual cutting, but rather only scraped membrane from the genitalia as part of a religious practice. They believe the government has exaggerated the case and are now demanding to see the government's photographs and videos of the alleged victims' genitalia so they can prepare for trial.
>According to court documents, the photos and videos will be shown at trial. They were taken by Dr. Dena Nazer, who performed medical exams on 13 minor Bohra girls based on concerns that they were victims of genital cutting.
>According to court documents, Nazer used a video colposcopy to magnify the genitalia up to 15 times its actual size. Based on her observations, court records state, she concluded that genital mutilation procedures had been performed on the girls, triggering indictments.

How does cutting off the tip of the clitoris make them unable to masturbate? They can still stimulate their G-spots, which you would know about if you weren't a virgin ;^)
Fucking amerimutts defending genital mutilation
Anthony Bailey

Luke Brooks
Dr Kellogg suggested applying acid to the clitoris to prevent masturbation.
Ryder Brown
The clitoris may be the nerve center but cutting it off isn't gonna kill the nerves all inside the vagina. Just like cutting your foreskin doesn't kill all nerves in the penis. You can still feel pleasure although allegedly much less.
Jaxson Flores
fuck shias
Chase Lopez
More like comparing the removal of fingers to the hand. I have an idea, how about we make both of them fucking illegal.
Carter Torres
And I can't crop my Dobermans ears and tail so that he looks properly evil...
Nathan Garcia
Technically male circumcision is already illegal, due to the 14th Amendment granting equal protection regardless of class. The law isn't being enforced, but it's only a matter of time before this contradiction in the law goes big.
Idiots. We only tolerate male genital mutilation in this country.
Zachary Hernandez
Roses are red You're a fucking Jew If I was your wife's son I'd be a nigger too
Hudson Howard
When this story broke there was some speculation from legal corespondents for various publications that depending on how this case goes someone would have a very easy time bringing the 14th amendment case. Apparently part of the sticking point was that the FGM law had never actually been used to charge someone for preforming it in the US.

>The analysis sample consisted of 1059 uncircumcised and 310 circumcised men. For the glans penis, circumcised men reported decreased sexual pleasure and lower orgasm intensity. They also stated more effort was required to achieve orgasm, and a higher percentage of them experienced unusual sensations (burning, prickling, itching, or tingling and numbness of the glans penis). For the penile shaft a higher percentage of circumcised men described discomfort and pain, numbness and unusual sensations. In comparison to men circumcised before puberty, men circumcised during adolescence or later indicated less sexual pleasure at the glans penis, and a higher percentage of them reported discomfort or pain and unusual sensations at the penile shaft.
>This study confirms the importance of the foreskin for penile sensitivity, overall sexual satisfaction, and penile functioning. Furthermore, this study shows that a higher percentage of circumcised men experience discomfort or pain and unusual sensations as compared with the uncircumcised population. Before circumcision without medical indication, adult men, and parents considering circumcision of their sons, should be informed of the importance of the foreskin in male sexuality.
Literally Jews. Don't believe the idiots who think Kellogg is the reason a Jewish genital mutilation ritual made it into American medicine. Kellogg never advocated for infant genital mutilation instead opting to recommend it as a punishment for teens that were caught masturbating because even as the sick fuck he was he wasn't that sick a fuck. Read up on Abraham Wolbarst if you want one of the real players in moving MGM into American medicine.

>For unknown reasons, keloid formation after circumcision is quite rare [90,91]. Although the circumcision scar has not been thoroughly studied, there are several different theories as to what happens when the nerves of the sensory receptors of the prepuce are transected during circumcision. Some have speculated that after circumcision, these nerves regenerate and develop new encapsulated receptors [92]. According to this theory, there would be a significant loss of penile sensitivity after circumcision, but this loss would not be apparent 6 months after the circumcision [92]. This notion is in direct conflict with human and animal studies that show when a nerve is transected, and the distal tissue is amputated, the proximal nerve undergoes acute axonal swelling [93-95].
>After acute injury, the axon begins to sprout and branch at the injury site. Without the distal nerve, this frustrated attempt at re-innervation results in a bulbous, disordered tangle of axons, Schwann cells and fibrous tissue. Histology of the male circumcision scar shows amputation neuromas, Schwann cell proliferation and the bulbous collection of variably sized neurites. Amputation neuromas do not mediate normal sensation and are notorious for generating pain.
>Animal studies show that extirpation of the external genitalia results in acute retrograde degeneration of the nerve axon back to the spinal cord [96]. Therefore, the changes in circumcised male sexual behaviour [81] may be related to a central nervous system alteration by retrograde axonal degeneration, or to peripheral nervous system damage by loss of the prepuce ridged band and amputation neuroma. It is assumed that amputation neuromas also form at the female circumcision scar, although we are unaware of a formal histology study.

yup!

Jayden Morgan
Female circumcision was covered under Blue Cross in the US until the early 1970s, and it was legal until 1996. It was often recommended for girls with large clitorises, and it was promoted for many of the same reasons as male circumcision, like cleanliness. We even designed a clamp specifically for performing female circumcisions.

Common forms of female circumcision remove absolutely no tissue, and just take a drop of blood. Others will only cut off a tiny sliver of the clitoral hood. Full infibulation is more severe than most male circumcisions, but it is not very common. Male circumcision is analogous to removing all of the clitoral hood, and some of the labia.
Thomas Carter
If you don't consider having more nerve endings fresh and intact for more pleasurable sex, I guess there's no benefit. Much the same to circumcision, there's no benefit for 99% of people who get it. If you can't wash a small fold of skin, you should consider euthanasia.

Do we really need to compare? They are both fucked and kikes need to be stopped from doing it.

Yes, both are wrong. Many people have the false idea that female circumcision is in no way comparable to male circumcision, and is always much more severe.

Circumcised people understably want to rationalize away their abuse while uncircumcised don't care much, thus the cycle continues.
