A study released by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention finds a four-fold increase in the risk of genital mutilation in girls under the age of 18, and a three-fold increase in girls and other women in the U.S, due to the wave of migrants from countries where the ritual is still practiced.
The increase has been happening over the course of a few decades as wave after wave of migrants have reached the US. The current rate means that half a million girls and women are affected or directly at risk of being subjected to the practice.
The practice has been bands in the United States for 20 years, but families who still practice genital mutilation are exploiting loopholes. The study observed a phenomenon called “vacation cutting,” where girls are sent back to the family’s country of origin to undergo the gruesome ritual.

It is illegal.. Has been since 1997.
And the most common type of female circumcision is a ritual p***k to the clitoral hood.
I don’t know, call me crazy, but full removal of the prepuce sounds a lot worse.
All this hate … Why aren’t you defending the rights of little boys whole bodies?
And the idea that African and Asian girls choose to be circumcised is also false. Most are coerced or forced.
that is assult and who ever dose it needs to be charged.this isnt a muslim country and we have laws
Lanelle Galindo simply put, you are wrong. Circumcision for both sexes creates varied levels of secual dysfunction.
But feel free to ignore the science. It is out there and it is not subject to opinion but based on anatomical fact.
