    2:58 "they cut it until it is the bone" My god, what a horrible practice... Rebecca is such a great woman to help protect new women-to-be against this inhuman crime. I wish she hadn't need to suffer herself.

    I have no idea how women can have sexual intercourse after a female genital mutilation, but i have a feeling that it'll be a painful nightmare to experience.

    Circumcision of both men and women is a cultural practise that is thousands and thousands of years old. I personally think it should abandoned by all cultures, the jewish version included.

    The reason they cut girls is to protect their virginity. By doing this procedure, sex is going to be painful for her and not particularly pleasurable. Some men have their opinions changed when they find out their wife won't enjoy sex but the majority of men refuse to marry uncut girls because they are impure and 'ruined'. It's very hard to change a deeply ingrained cultural belief about female virginity.
