FGM Is a Crime – Unless You’re Doing It in America

A U.S. Federal Judge has ruled that law against female genital mutilation is unconstitutional – prosecutors drop appeal [1]. ‘According to UNICEF, “…data shows that the pace of progress to end FGM remains slow, lagging behind population growth…”'[2]. And the U.S. has just done it’s bit to make sure the pace of progress drops off a cliff.

Though Islamic Tradition holds that Mohammed was born circumcised – and thus exempt from the procedure himself – 23.52% of Islamic females are estimated to have undergone some form of FGM, compared to 1.86% of non-Islamic females [3]. Owing to migration, the practice is increasingly common in the West (Koran 30:30, Dawud 5271).

Numerous peer‑reviewed studies show FGM leads to lifelong physical, sexual, obstetric and psychological damage (see WHO, Lancet). Young Muslim girls that are subjected to this excruciating procedure suffer:

Immediate complications –

  • Severe pain  – performed without anesthesia, cutting highly innervated tissue.
  • Excessive bleeding (hemorrhage)  –  a major cause of death in girls undergoing FGM.
  • Shock  –  from blood loss and trauma.
  • Infection and sepsis –  use of unsterile instruments; tetanus and gangrene common.
  • Urinary retention  –  due to swelling and pain.
  • Open wounds and tissue damage  –  sometimes involving the urethra or anus.
  • Death  –  from bleeding, shock, or infection.

Long‑term physical complications –

  • Chronic pelvic and genital pain
  • Recurrent urinary tract infections and cysts
  • Menstrual problems  –  obstructed flow and painful periods
  • Infertility  –  from pelvic inflammatory disease and scar tissue
  • Obstetric complications  –  prolonged labour, tearing, postpartum haemorrhage, need for caesarean section, and higher infant mortality
  • Formation of keloids and neuromas  – painful scar tissue growths
  • Difficulty urinating or incontinence

Sexual and reproductive effects –

  • Reduced sexual desire and pleasure  –  removal or damage to clitoris and labia
  • Dyspareunia  –  pain during intercourse
  • Obstructed penetration  –  especially after Type III (infibulation)
  • Marital and psychological strain –  due to pain, fear, and loss of intimacy

Psychological and social consequences –

  • Post‑traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  • Depression and anxiety
  • Nightmares and flashbacks
  • Low self‑esteem and loss of bodily autonomy
  • Social isolation or stigmatization  –  particularly for those who refuse or oppose FGM

Obstetric risks (WHO 2025 review) –

  • Women with FGM are 70 % more likely to experience postpartum hemorrhage.
  • 30 % increase in caesarean section rates.
  • Increased neonatal death rate – babies born to cut mothers have a higher risk of dying at birth.

Western societies are facilitating the spread and enforcement of Sharia  –  a barbarous system of law – dedicating days and months to ‘Combat Islamophobia’ while Muslim women endure forced marriage, veiling, FGM, and wife-beating. Once sharia has the ‘upper hand’ politically, that enforcement can extend to stoning for illegal sex.

Whatever happened to the ‘enlightenment’? Why do I even need to post the obvious  – how far has Western civilization deteriorated that it’s even necessary?

What next  –  a return to slavery? That’s also halal according to sharia  – so long as the freshly acquired slave isn’t Muslim to start with. Not that converting afterwards will help …

There is a way to stop and even reverse the imposition of Sharia in the West  –  please read my book and share it with your favourite politician: https://amazon.com/dp/106887600X
