Further clarification on genital mutilation
This is great, I got a reader comment on my first post - the one about clitoral peircing. It raises an interesting question too.
L.J. writes:
"Given that cultures have been doing similar, and more damaging, things to their bodies for generations, I assume all cultures, except for Georgia, are degenerate?"
L.J., please let me clarify. Georgia's culture is degenerate too, along with the rest of the cultures in the first world.
I would stop short of saying that ALL cultures are degenerate though. To qualify as a degenerate culture, a culture must have reached some high point from which it can descend, which would disqualify most of cultures where serious genital mutilation is practiced.
