I had actually researched both types of genital mutilation and "corrective" mutilation of intersex folks; and totally agree with what you're saying. I didn't mean to justify FGM in any capacity. I can't speak to the effects of MGM or FGM exactly, but I find the idea of mutilating the genitals of someone unable to consent for aesthetic or "religious" reasons absolutely vile. I wasn't trying to pick favorites here. I would not want FGM to be legal, even if MGM remained legal; or vise-versa.
