There is a problem with this analogy, too - because unlike circumcision, either female or male, the removal of earlobes doesn’t cut off a room in the mansion of sexual pleasure for life.

This claim isn’t supported by the medical literature, though.

Even wiki can show you that.

And again: Please, please stop associating FGM and circumcision. By equating the two, you really, really run the risk of some guy who’s circumcised, like me, and knows that he enjoys sex immensely and without any problems in the least, will go “Oh, well FGM musn’t be that big a deal then.”

If you can make an argument against circumcision, do so, but don’t piggyback on FGM. It’s cheap as hell.
