I said "most ability" not "all ability". FGM is more akin to what the Muslims would do to their African slaves that were male, not just cut off their testicles, but their dick as well. If Jews want to cut the kid's whole dick off instead of the tip, I'd be for making it illegal.
Let me share with you a great true story about other people's traditions around the world:
British in India were faced with the practice of “suttee” – the tradition of burning widows on the funeral pyres of their husbands. General Sir Charles Napier was impeccably multicultural: “You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.”
The practice of suttee disappeared almost immediately.
But your missing the the fact its the same thing. Regarding cutting something off. Ie the boys don't even get to know what it is like to have it.
I'm probably putting it across wrong.
Its the same thing....
FGM is akin to castration, circumcision is akin to some idiot getting piercings and other body modifications.
Both are stupid, but one is decidedly more stupid.
What's worse, is no female would voluntarily get FGM.
You say that but it's the Mom's who get the daughter the chop. The same Mom's who have the same thing.
I think it's something the western world doesn't get but point at and say its the devil?
Justifying chooping the boys dick off is also nuts no me.
Yes, female hypergamy is a problem, and women recognize it the most in themselves. But that adult women do it to underage girls unable to make an informed decision on the matter should tell you, it is akin to child abuse. Circumcision is sometimes done by adults to other adults. Find me a case where an adult female asks for FGM. Trannies maybe? But that's a different reason.
Lots of people abuse their children in other ways than mutilating their genitals too.
