The men will never know the joys of satisfying his wife and bringing her into the throws of orgasm. Instead sex for the woman is just lying there while the man humps her and deposits his semen. Some forms he has to rip her open because she has been sewn up. It is very painful and causes infections. How ridiculous to remove a woman's ability to feel sex and subject her to immense pain.

In my opinion, the girls are under very big pressure and this may spoil their mentality and may get them into a big hole. Because I bet that a 4-8 year-old girl is not prepared for such shock.
By the way,am I the only person that can't stand old grandmothers' face - not because they're black, but because I know how mind-broaded they are? And because they're doing things which don't understand and don't want to listen when people explain to them. I hope my generation(93) won't be so stubborn.

watch these videos, it's disturbing in the extreme. Those poor girls agree to it because it's the only way they will be respected - how can this type of mentality still exist? It's just mind blowing.

How can anyone advocate culture or religion or whatever and watch these horrible acts happening? I can barely watch these videos, it's disturbing in the extreme. Those poor girls agree to it because it's the only way they will be respected - how can this type of mentality still exist? It's just mind blowing

I don't care if its culture, it's wrong! Those poor girls suffer. Somalia and other do this insane practices. The men ruled the women in those countries. what if the women started cutting out the men gentials in that country then they would really suffer. These horrific practices has to stop.
