The argument that 'Sunnah Circumcision' should be allowed because Male Circumcision is allowed is to argue that because Evil X is tolerated Evil Y should therefore also be tolerated'. The WHO etc should aspire to be consistent by condemning ''both'' practices, not by condoning both.

NB No-one who practices or advocates FGM will refer to what they do as 'mutilation', not even those who infibulate. This is all the mores so for Muslims since the Qur'an appears to forbid mutilation ({{Quran|30|30}}, {{Quran|2|195}} but see The Qur'an forbids mutilation above). The line which separates ''<nowiki/>'necessary intervention'<nowiki/>'' and ''<nowiki/>'mutilation''' is therefore always set somewhere beyond the practice being defended.  
'''NB''' - no-one who practices, or defends, FGM refers to what they do as 'mutilation', not even those who infibulate. This is especially so for Muslims, since the Qur'an appears to forbid mutilation ({{Quran|30|30}}, {{Quran|2|195}} - but see [[User:Flynnjed/Sandbox#The Qur.27an Forbids Mutilation|previous section]]). The line which separates ''<nowiki/>'justified intervention'<nowiki/>'' and ''<nowiki/>'mutilation''' is therefore always set somewhere beyond the practice being defended. The fact that a Muslim condemns 'Female Genital Mutilation' but on further discussion, reveal themselves to support 'Female ''circumcision'.''  
 
''<nowiki/><nowiki/><nowiki/>''
 
be careful talking to moslems about 'mutiklation' - you will often read moslems condemning Female Gential ''mutilation'', who on further discussion, reveal themselves to support Female ''circumcision''
