In all the time I worked in Women's Health(gynaecology) I only ever saw one case.......and it was in a woman in her fifties, she had had it done as a child and it was done by a woman that her family knew. Her mother and her grandmother held her down while this mutilation was performed. Her life was blighted by this procedure.
It is barbaric. Culture has nothing at all to do with it.
