    Thanks for the information, this is obviously very personal for you. Try to understand that I never compared them, and I wanting an end to all genital mutilation in no way diminishes what you’re fighting for.

      Uh, no this is not “personal” for me.

      Why do people feel a need to do “but what about the men?” every time this topic comes up? No one is smearing shit into the bloody penis of a baby. They are not comparable.

        Talking about related atrocities is a way to relate to a wider audience to raise awareness. Again, I never compared anything.
