I have been wondering why Lisa Wade wrote an editorial on 'male genital mutilation' ('Male genital mutilation inexcusable,' Oct. 19-21). That may have been the most unnecessary piece of writing I have ever read. As a human sexuality TA, Ms. Wade should know that there are physiological differences between a penis and a vagina. I am baffled as to why she equates male circumcision, the removal of the prepuce, with female genital mutilation, the partial or complete removal of the clitoris and labia minora. Because FGM permanently robs women of the pleasures of sexual intercourse, it has become a human rights issue taken up by Amnesty International, the World Health Organization and the United Nations. But woman-parts and man-parts are not the same.
