Yeah, I looked at a couple articles about that, and they always make a "qualification" that it is a CUSTOM in certain countries. Well, in this country years ago, it was a custom in the south to lynch blacks. Does that make it right?
I hate that they're calling it 'circumcision'. There's a helluva difference between male circumcision and female genital mutilation. Calling it 'circumcision' makes it seem less damaging in readers' minds. It needs to be called 'mutilation', to get people to protest against it. .
