    Has any research ever tried to find benefits of FGM and any risks it might reduce? I don't think so.

    Motrality and morbidity, you say? Make some circumcisions under the sanitary conditions similar to those under which FGM is often made and we may not notice the difference.

    Like I said - add some black PR to circumcision - or run a campaign against it in major media - and you will not know the idea in a couple of years.
