[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am Jewish with daughters so not confronting this issue right now, but I think the hysteria over male circumcision is ridiculous.  I  have zero issue with male circumcision and there is [b]compelling evidence that it actually protects men from HIV infection, among other benefits.  [/b]
I read these absurd postings on this forum comparing the removal of the foreskin to female circumcision where commonly the labia and clitoris are removed and, in some cases, the vaginal opening sewn together.  A grotesque and completely absurd comparison.  Like comparing removal of a mole to an amputation.  [/quote]

NO THERE IS NOT.  Please don't spout out opinions as if they are fact.

(You'll also find, if you do some research that female circumcision runs from a prick of the clitoral hood to it's complete removal with the majority of circumcisions taking place being very comparable to male circumcision and justified by educated middle class women using the same terms: e.g. it's cleaner, there are health benefits, she won't be shunned etc etc.)[/quote]
