4. Male circumcision is nothing like female genital mutilation
To be comparable, you would have to have the entire head of your penis removed, instead of removing a small flap of skin. In FGM, the entire clitoris is removed. The clitoris has as many nerve endings in it as the entire penis does, just in a much smaller area.
