Not much to say about MGM:
Except,
1. If you decide not to circumcise your boy child, TEACH them how to keep that foreskin clean!!!
2. If you decide to get circumcised as a grown man: make sure you are screened for for maradhis, especially diabetes---Otherwise that kindoda may not heal.
On FGM:
Cosmetic FGM=Piercings of the various parts of the Vijayjay (Clit/labia rings etc), and other procedures such as trimming inner labia or clitoral hood--aka
Labiaplasty and
Clitoral hood reduction.
These are generally elective procedures that can be performed medically and are often performed on adult women at their request.
What is not cosmetic and is indeed harmful especially if done on kids is type 1,2 and 3 FGM.
See pictures here1. Removing the clitoris partially or completely
2. Removing the labia+clitoris
3. Removing clitoris, labia and sewing the child’s outer labia partially or completely
No doctor worth his/her profession should engage in this level of harm. Any adult doing this to kids below the age of consent should be thrown in jail Pap! Culture be damned!
