My two cents on the subject

Female Genital Cutting has always incensed me, as do any women's rights violations. These women do not feel pleasure during intercourse not only because they no longer have a clitoris, but because depending on the degree of the procedure, the vaginal opening can be barely large enough to fit the tip of a pinky through, and so intercourse is often very painful and results in tearing and bleeding and therefore very frequent infections. Other issues arise during childbirth. Some women will allow their vaginas to be cut open so that they can deliver the baby easily, and other women refuse such interventions, which as you can only imagine, results in very bloody and greusome childbirths.

In the recent years, when men of the societies involved have been asked about how they feel having a wife who has undergone FGC, it has become more and more common to hear them say that they are not fond of it either, for the same reasons as above. Many of the men want to know that they are pleasing their wives. This is a tradition that although has some patriarchal roots, is definitely reinforced and upheld by the women in the society.

I can put some pictures up if you would like to see them.
