They can't shed their cultural myopia. Its sad. Even in Canada's multicultural society its still all too easy to condemn strange practices such as FGM with no regard whatsoever for the abuse that is tolerated in our own democracy of which we ourselves are supposed to be allowed to have a say in.

It is harmful, a lot is lost. The parts cut off have stretch and touch sensors. One touches or is touched at these parts, one stretches or one is stretched at these parts and the result is pleasure. Remove the parts, the result is removal of pleasure from ones life for good. ??I don’t think it has any harmful effects …??

You don't call health breasts "unmastectomized." The medically- and politically-correct term is "intact penis." I like how you give the child his rights. The owner of the penis is the one to decide its fate. Mutilation is a medical term and is used to describe any unnecessary surgery whether it has benefits or not. We use the term to describe female circumcision, the removal of the clitoral hood (aka, prepuce) so why shouldn't it apply to removal of the foreskin (aka, prepuce), too?

It might encourage more students to run. I’d rather see a story on an explanation of the rules of the election and a report on the salaries of the executive.
