To Hijab or not to Hijab

[Philippus Flavius Homovallumus]

FGM almost always removes part or all of the clitoris, the equivilent of female circumcision in men would include removal of part the glans, not just the foreskin.

Yes, I realise that, which is why I made the specific point that we would not even conscience the removal of the clitoral hood.

Reading - fundamentally lacking her of late.

I have no idea how this relates to my point that your equivalence, between male circumcision and fgm, is false.

Reading - fundamentally lacking here of late indeed.

Do you mean that the British have quite low internal mobility? I thought it was otherwise, something like in the USA.

No, just the 600,000-odd Welsh speakers, they tend to have relatively low mobility.

Firstly, the equivalence is not false, both are decisions taken by elders and enacted upon juveniles and both effect sexual performance and pleasure - one is just more extreme than the other. Now, the reason I mentioned removal of the clitoral hood was to point out that we would not even accept that, so even with direct anatomical equivalence we will do to little boys what we will not do to little girls.

Now, was that clear enough or do I need to start posting academic sources to buttress a very obvious point?

"My solution is to forbid immigration.": Let them die. And that is not fascism?

You ought to know. After all YOU live in the country that qualifies your definition of fascism - it "lets them die" by forbidding them to enter the Channel tunnel.

How do you intend to enforce it? I am quite curious on the methods?

My solution is rather retrospective, it should have been done 25 odd years ago. As for what is to be done now - reap what you sowed. If you opened your gate once and decided it doesn't need a lock because all around there are sober-minded and sensible middle-class people - come up with something when you wake up and see that it is not so.

So we are all glad that Putin removed the Russian immigrants from Ukraine now?

1. Bringing in Putin every time you think appropriate derails threads and pushes the forum one inch closer to the abyss of cheap-shotism, sensationalism and one-trick-ponyism (cited after Sarmatian's "The Selected Edifications").
2. Russian immigrants (that is Russian regular armed forces) are still there with all their chattels and paraphernalia.

I wonder if they teach the same history in England and Scotland. I mean if one finished, say, 5 grades in England and then moved to Scotland, would the history taught there seem rather upside-down?
