75. Do the women here who advocate male circumcision also find female circumcision attractive?
Edited on Tue Feb-16-10 06:09 AM by TexasObserver
We could probably cut the losses of women to uterine and breast cancer if all women had their uterus and breasts removed at age 35.

Would anyone think that's a good idea? I don't, even though there would almost certainly be reduced deaths of women due to uterine or breast cancer. I suspect few women would choose to do that based upon reducing the risk of future cancers that may never come.


FYI: I think it is preferable for boys to be circumcised, but ultimately, it's the decision of the parents in our society, and social standards matter more than health benefits.
