| | Statistics on intersex genital mutilation are not as well documented, but in the United States it is not uncommon for an attending medical practitioner to perform genital mutilation on intersex infants. | | | Unlike with female genital mutilation, male genital mutilation is practiced openly, in both hospitals and religious ceremonies, without regard to the physical and psychological harm that it causes each of its victims. | | | Male genital mutilation was not addressed, however, and the latest statistics indicate that some 35% of young boys in California have their genitals mutilated in the name of health, hygiene, social custom, or religion. |

| | Through the 1950s, some doctors continued to advocate clitoridotomy for hygienic reasons or to reduce masturbation, even as other procedures were increasingly believed to be a violation of genital integrity, and as such, a form of genital mutilation. | | | In fact, no form of genital modification and mutilation is mentioned in the Qur'an, but only in disputed hadiths. | | | Opponents of these practices use the term female genital mutilation (FGM) when they are performed on a minor. |

| | Also, using "modified or mutilated" when discussing practices like genital piercing or tattoing is disingenuous; it tends to imply that some penises are pierced or tattooed involuntarily. | | | As we've discussed (and discussed and discussed) at the circumcision and genital modification and mutilation article, the word "mutilation" tends to carry negative connotations, while "modification" is more neutral. | | | I've replaced it with a link to the main genital modification and mutilation article, and indicated that circumcision is especially controversial when performed on infants and young boys. |

| | The idea that the elective modification of a woman's genitals is illegal and a man can go in at any age, including under the age of consent, and have his genitals altered through circumcision is sexist and should not be allowed. | | | We cannot change the desires of women to want to modify their genitals, and if that desire is strong enough the modification will be done at all costs including one's health or even ones life itself. | | | Ideally, in the United States, the practice of FGM and male genital mutilation/modification (MGM) should be done by qualified physicians or other practitioners electively after the age of 18. |
