Because guess what – it’s not possible for a girl who’s gone through infibulation to regain “sensation”. There’s a hell of a lot more there than just “less satisfying sex” to worry about, and THAT is often a huge part of what people want to talk about. Why can’t you accept that, and take YOUR discussion elsewhere? Let’s be clear about this: it’s possible for FGM victims, even those with infibulation, to have orgasms through the g-spot or nipple stimulation. It eliminates the ability to have a particular _type_ of orgasm (via the clitoris). This is no way justifies the practice of course, but it’s not neccesarily true that infibulation victims completely lose the ability to enjoy sex. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/genital-mutilation-of-young-girls-but-its-a-religious-thing/785057)._
