She is also one of the top surgeons for changing one's gender.

There are some good people left.

2man has been waiting all these years to use 'clitoris' in a tag. Good story!

Ha, I saw Trinidad, CO and immediately thought "Sex Change Capital of the World!"

Didn't know that was really true, but I had heard it before.

Thanks for posting this, 2many! I was in tears through most of the article, but it made me so happy that there are options for FGM victims, and that the doc here in the US is doing it for no pay.

Is there a similar institution for treating Male Genital Mutilation AKA Circumcision?

There are actually methods of restoring the appearance of a foreskin available for home application.

Can we avoid going through that debate again? You know, the one that compares clipping a bit of skin off, with yes, granted, some reduced sensitivity, to the COMPLETE REMOVAL OF PLEASURE? One done in a hospital, by trained medical professionals with a full array of tools, equipment and treatment versus being done with a bit of sharp glass in a dirty back room by someone with no professional training? One that leaves the 'victim' with little noteworthy consequence versus one that ruins what should be one of life's greatest joys? One that is done in a misguided push for hygiene versus one that is done to control and dominate and manipulate half the population?

K? Can we, please?

The Voice Of Reason never ends well.

Read up, have fun:

Guess not.

It's been discussed. I'm not arguing that circumcision makes sense or is even a good idea, but it is not the same as FGM. The rational, the setting, the consequences...Just not the same.

So get over it. I won't say more.

Ouch! Not a great article to wake up to.

One rule you should pay attention to is we do not allow any sort of self-linking here. You can post interesting links but please refrain from posting links to sites that you have any sort of connection to.

Also spam is of course forbidden.

I mention this because some of your links look like they might possibly fall into one of those categories.

You know what. It disgusts me how whenever this topic is brought up we have a couple of little boys like you immediately flailing about and squealing at the top of their lungs "BUT WHAT ABOUT MY PENIS!"

It's unbecoming. Go grow up, please.

Ya know, I know this is a serious article and all, and I'm glad to see that a talented surgeon can work this wonder, but on a lighter note...Can she give me a clitoris too? I mean SRSLY I'm not all about going the whole way and being a transsexual, or a M2F, but having a clitoris would be hella good times. You just same place it is on girls, give me one there too thanks, boobs? I like um but not on me, vagina? I dig those too but wouldn't want to take delivery of one. But a joy button above my joystick? Who WOULDN'T want that?






before you flame....I kid, I kid.

I don't agree with blindworld's opinions but he has made them in a polite manner.

There really is no reason to downvote him because of what he said.

I'm not that skilled...but I CAN give you a clitoris on your nose! :P

Why it is termed 'female circumcision' is beyond me. It's castration, pure and simple.
