→Female genital mutilation: Wikify
When the [[American Academy of Pediatrics]] in 2010 suggested that "pricking or incising the clitoral [[skin]]" was a harmless procedure that might satisfy parents, intactivist organizations and individuals were quick to respond in condemning the "policy statement on ritual genital cutting of female minors".
While the [[intactivist]] movement at large recognizes all forms of female genital mutilation as harmful, some of the organizations leading the campaigns against FGM do not recognize any harm in male [[circumcision]]. In fact, [[Catherine Hankins]], a circumcision promoter who works for the corrupt [[WHO|World Health Organization]], wrote: "it is therefore critical that messaging about male circumcision for [[HIV]] prevention not only clearly distinguishes it from FGM but also contributes to efforts to eradicate FGM".
