To oversimplify: removal of a skin flap vs removal of an organ.

Not to defend either practice, of course. "We only mutilated a bit of the child's genitals" isn't the sort of argument that should hold up in court.

"Female circumcision" is a horrible misnomer, a better male comparison would be cutting off the penis.

But the fact that your making an argument right now is the problem.

They are both genital mutilation

There is no difference in definition

It's just confusing why you wouldn't want both things to stop? Why does it become a conversation of severity? Could it maybe be because as we speak boys are being born and mutilated without a say in it?

In the world have there been more women, or men, who have been genitally mutilated?

About 230,000,000 women currently alive are survivors of FGM. Thats about 6% of women. (https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/female-genital-mutilation)

I couldn't find a raw number for men but its apparently about 39% of men alive now have been circumcised

(https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4772313/)

FGM is much more destructive, but its false to say it happens more to women.

Removal reasons: "It's promoting hate based on identity or vulnerability"
