Genital Mutilation

                     


Genital cutting refers to genital modification and mutilation of the human genitals using a cutting instrument.

This terminology is often used in some literature specifically to avoid using the terms 'mutilation' or 'circumcision'. These practices can include:

• Female genital cutting (FGC) including: Clitoridectomy Labiaplasty 

• Vaginoplasty 

• Male genital cutting including: Castration Circumcision Penectomy 

• Penile sub incision penile super incision

Although circumcision is quite common, the darker side of general mutilation is really spoken of and very taboo.
