effects? I am writing a research paper
and would like to interview someone who is
knowlegeble about it. please let me know!

Um, we learned about this topic in passing
during 9th grade. Apparantly, it is
prevalent in Africa and it involves
cutting off women's clitorises so that
they won't be able to feel pleasure in sex
and as a result will not seek promiscous
activity. In cultures that practice it,
it is supposedly the female equivalent of
male circumcision. But do cross-reference
my sources, I could have been taught
biased or inaccurate information.

I actually wrote a research paper on
Female Genital Mutilation for my World
Civ. class last year and I found all my
information on the internet.
Just type "Female Genital Mutilation" or
"Female Genital Cutting" into your search
engine. also try "Female Circumcision".
