Female genital mutilation as a modern European fad

According to this Breitbart article from AFP, more and more physically normal women are demanding plastic surgery to "improve" the appearance of their vulvas. This "designer vagina" surgery (or, rather, butchery) involves cutting away healthy sensitive tissue, with the end result being a vulva resembling that of a prepubescent girl.

1389 declines to speculate on the depth of the mental, emotional, and spiritual sickness that could motivate supposedly modern, civilized people to begin toying with the savage custom of female genital mutilation.

Off-topic tech note for fellow mobile web enthusiasts: 1389's laptop was down, so this entire blog post was entered via a bare-bones Sanyo SCP-7000 cell phone. This is not the easiest way to go, but it will work. However, the memory limitations of the cellphone itself are a problem, in that this limits the size of the file that can be loaded back into the cellphone for editing with the Blogger editor.

I will never understand some people.

Me either. But then, some people would say that if we did understand things like that, something would have to be wrong with us! Don't know if that's true or not...
