There has been a huge increase in the numbers of women in France seeking plastic surgery. These women are not looking for face lifts, liposuction or breast enhancement - they are looking to have their sexual organs reconstructed after having been circumcized in primarily Islamic countries. Unfortunately, this also indicates that female genital castration is still occurring. One suspects that this surge in genital reconstructive surgery is also found in other western nations with high immigration from Islamic countries.
"In recent years around 2,800 women who immigrated to France from Africa or second generation immigrants, of the age group between 18 and 50, have turned to hospitals and centres in Paris and Nantes funded by national welfare to have their genitals reconstructed, devastated by the practice of female genital mutilation (FGM)." LINK
Female genital mutilation involves removing part or all of the clitoris, the surrounding labia (the outer part of the vagina) and sometimes the sewing up of the vagina, leaving only a small opening for urine and menstrual blood. This is done usually without any anesthetic. "FGM can be performed as early as infancy and as late as age thirty. However, most commonly, girls experience FGM between four and twelve years of age."
For a graphic explanation of types of female genital mutilation - FGM - go to HERE - but realize that the article is explicit.
For a list of countries where FGM is prevalent go HERE - but these countries are not the only places that are dealing with the horrific consequences of FGM. With immigration comes the barbaric practice of FGM - thus at least 21,000 young girls are at risk in muslim-rich England and Wales. Norway is also facing an increase in mutilated young women. One woman who dared to expose Islamic connection to FGM in Norway, Kadra, was attacked and nearly killed by 8 Somalian men. It stands to reason that FGM is happening throughout the Western world brought into our countries with rampant immigration along with the much heralded multiculturalism and "globalization" ideologies.
Islamic countries may not be the only ones that practice FGM but the mutilation there is prevalent:
"In the Arabian peninsula, Types I and II FGM is usually performed, often referred to as Sunna circumcision especially among Afro-Arabs (ethnic groups of African descent are more likely to prefer infibulation). The practice occurs particularly in northern Saudi Arabia, southern Jordan, and northern Iraq[citation needed]. In the Iraqi village of Hasira, a recent study found that 60 percent of the women and girls reported having undergone FGM[citation needed]. Before the study, there had been no solid proof of the prevalence of the practice. There is also circumstantial evidence to suggest that FGM is practiced in Syria, western Iran, and southern Turkey.[32] In Oman, a few communities still practice FGM; however, experts believe that the number of such cases is small and declining annually."

For another excellent article on the role of Islam go to:
Women Under Islam: Female Genital Mutilation by Adrian Morgan
Clearly any non delusional, normal man or woman would find the entire practice of FGM despicable and mind boggling horrific. Laws have and are being written against this forced disfigurement - but not necessarily followed. Clearly FGN is nothing that we would choose to import into our Western countries. So leave it to the loopey New York Times to present the argument, posed by the "third wave of multicultural feminists" (interesting enough from pro-FGM countries) in FAVOR of the genital castration - all in the name of multicultural tolerance and accpetance - coming to the conclusion that:
Well - that's the first time I've heard the "political correctness" argument used in favor of mutilating women! Funny how the author caveats the article with the statement that she wouldn't choose it for her daughter - yet remains open minded. Really?! then why the inconsistency? How about for herself?
So is that where our anything-goes multiculturalists heading? - the same people who are quick to denouce and agree that christmas customs and piggy banks are offensive to muslims and must stop - are now praising the practice of castrating women? Apparently as long a someone declares that an act is done based on "their culture or heritage"- particularly if it's muslim - it's acceptable? Are the rights of women and children being slaughtered on the altar of multiculturalism?
One feminist (guess she must be from the first or second "wave" of feminists- see above) disagrees with the multicultural dhimmi-ridden blather and correctly places the blame on Islam.
"The greatest threat to peace, progress and pleasure since Hitler, Islamist extremists seek to overturn every gain the suffragettes strived and suffered so courageously for, and for this reason as much as any they must be resisted everywhere from Manhattan to Mumbai with every shred of strength we have. The evil hand of extremism is attempting to turn back the clock on women’s rights all around the world.
Think of the 11 Afghan schoolgirls and four teachers who had acid sprayed in their faces by the Taliban last month for the outrageous crime of believing in female education. And closer to home, look at the disgraceful case of London-based Dr Humayra Abedin, the 33-year-old trainee GP who was kidnapped by her family in August and held prisoner in Bangladesh.
They are trying to force the beaten and sedated woman into an Islamic marriage to a man she does not know.
It is a terrifying echo of the imprisonment and torture of the suffragettes all those years ago. These are crimes against feminism AND crimes against humanity."
As Islam and multicultural dhimmitude infect our Western societies the rights and safety of women and girls are increasingly in jeopardy. It is up to all of us - men and women - to insure that the abomination of female genital mutilation is never considered acceptable in our countries.
It's too bad that the Muslim brain cannot reason very well. According to the Muslim god, Allah, it's good and wholesome to chop of the clitoris of a little girl "to keep her pure." That's what leads me to believe that the Muslim god, Allah, is in reality Satan. That is the reason that I conjoin the two names as follows: Satan/Allah. So chopping off the clitoris of a child is pleasing to Satan/Allah who is the god of cruelty, the god of depravity, the god of wickedness, the god of female genital mutilation, the god of murder, the god of wanton death and destruction, the god of the backward Muslim brain.
Obviously the Muslim brain rejects the God of the Christians and Jews. You see, the True God endows a child with a clitoris. If the True God endows a child with a clitoris, this God of the Christians and Jews wants the child to keep it. But the backward Muslim brains, from the 57 backward, Muslim Third World Countries caught off the clitoris of a child. So it follows that Muslims are wicked and go counter to the wishes of the True God, the God of human lives that should remain intact.
So Muslims, why don't you discard that Muslim brain, and think like the "infidels" that you condemn? If you do that, you will leave those little girls alone, and allow them to keep their clitoris endowed by the True God, the God of Christians and Jews.

After cutting off the clitoris of a child, depraved, perverted, sex craved, old Muslim males marry the mutilated child as young as eight years old, and then these sick Muslim individuals rape these little children. And these backward depraved old Muslim males get away with it simply by saying: "It's the custom." And guess what? Infidel Dhimmis agree. "It's the custom," they agree. And of course the depravity, and cruelty of little girls continue in the Muslim world. The frightened little girls continue to cry and suffer. Again, I'm asking the Muslims to have mercy, and show pity for these little girls instead of raping them. Shame, shame, shame on you Muslims.

Hey... Phillip Saenz..
Allah is one of the gods of the Muslims.... Satan is another.. Just like Zeus was king of the gods and Hades was god of the underworld.
Christians have a pantheon too.. and sure.. Satan is the Christian god of evil..
As a "god" is defined as a supernatural deity with magical authority over an area of expertise.... you know... like Satan is the father of all lies... or Mars was god of war..that sort of thing.
Hey, I'll be the first to agree that Islam is a troublesome religion.. but Islam itself doesn't call for genital mutilation... not even of females.
Judaism does specifically call for genital mutilation... but nobody cares, because Christians have adopted the custom..
Most Christians are circumscized.. or however you spell that.
You even got Americam doctors claiming there is a medical basis for it... heh
So... heck... there are plenty of things to criticize Islam for.. most notably Jihad and Sharia.
But so far as genital mutilation goes.. it's really common in Christian society... on males..
and you seem just a tad thoughtless and hypocritical.
But thanks for your input...

Why not circumcize and then castrate all muslim males and we won't have to worry about terrorist after they are all gone.

Steve D , I completlly agree with you ,Any muslim who wish to enter Europe, UK must agree to be castrated and those who are already here must also be castrated, so as to decrease their population. log on www.faithfreedom.org www.danielpipes.org

I just read this and found myself so angry - again! I read an article on FGC a few years ago, I donated what little money I could, but I was still infuriated! I had hoped to see a MAJOR decrease in the # of FGC being preformed. WHY ARE WE NOT BRINGING THESE STORIES TO THE MAJOR PRESS and keep on them until this is no longer allowed? I swear, if I didn't have my children to look after - I would sign up to Africa and visit every country until this torture no longer exists.

This article is very disturbing. While the information is very graffic in nature, it is also very informative on the subject itself. Each country has traditions or beliefs which one might find disturbing but without reading about it how would you actually know what takes place in othe parts of the world?

This problem is prevalent in Sudan. It's got nothing to do with religion. It's customary. You'd have to travel overseas to really understand WHY it's done. But, nevertheless, it's a life threatening, mutilating, forced procedure that is only done with very uneducated folk way out in the country. Mostly it is done to Bedouin girls.
