A Fight as U.S. Girls Face Genital Cutting Abroad --- time to crank up the white college-educated female hysteria mill again

Bring up male genital mutilation and youll be shouted down about how FGM is like eleventy times worse (disregarding that there are multiple types of FGM some similar to circumcision) and therefore more importants.

Even trying to bring up the topic if "genital mutilation for anyone is bad lets stop it for everyone" will get you shunned by feminists.

Rape culture, wage gap, ban bossy, girls in STEM, sex trafficking, and now this. Front page of the NY Times.

Is this really a problem in America? Or is this just another example of academic feminists desperately seeking the next "woman victimhood crisis" to justify their own existence? Also a very funny quote from the article:

Unlike male circumcision, the practice has no health benefits.

Here is the research the article is based on:

http://www.brighamandwomens.org/Departments_and_Services/obgyn/services/africanwomenscenter/research2.aspx

THEY DO NOT EVEN MEASURE how many american women have been circumcised. They just make up some criteria known as "at risk" for genital cutting. Why don't they actually just MEASURE how many American women are being circumcised?!?!?!?! They just use the typical (often female) tactic of finding a handful of "victims" and then extrapolating wildly from that. I imagine next will come the claim that "it is difficult to measure because women do not report it". This has often become the standard reponse to nullifying any scientific inquiry into any of these whipped up hysteria issues.

There are surely more important MEASURABLE problems our Congress and other elected officials should be concentrating their time and effort on... Note that female circumcision and transporting girls abroad for the purposes of female circumcision ARE ALREADY SPECIFICALLY ILLEGAL at the federal level. In other words Congress has already done its job, but still the hysteria continues. I do not understand it. After all this, how can educated women look at America and conclude that this is at the top of their list of priorities for their elected officials to handle?
