FGM horrid, but MGM beneficial? Not so fast!

Dan Bollinger's latest essay on genital integrity does the unthinkable: Compares MGM to FGM. Male circumcision removes just as much tissue and nerves, causes just as much pain, and results in about the same sexual harm as the most common form of female genital mutilation.I sometimes make this statement in order to shock people into understanding that male and female genital mutilation (MGM and FGM) aren't diametrically opposed, but that they have a lot in common and we should work toward abolishing both practices.
