Add MGM aka Male Genital Mutilation (MGM) into this list. Reasons

  1. Cut off the healthy foreskin of healthy infants
  2. Penectomy - removal of the penis without any medical reason
  3. Penile subincision - no benefit and also lead to many infections.
  4. Castration without a reason

so this word is totally suitable for this act. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Faulknerck2 (talk • contribs) 06:08, 1 November 2012‎

The Mutilation definition is something like that.

http://www.thefreedictionary.com/mutilation mu·ti·late (mytl-t) tr.v. mu·ti·lat·ed, mu·ti·lat·ing, mu·ti·lates 1. To deprive of a limb or an essential part; cripple. 2. To disfigure by damaging irreparably: mutilate a statue. See Synonyms at batter1. 3. To make imperfect by excising or altering parts.

so cutting of a penis is indeed a mutilation

This has nothing to do with the proposed edit. Zad68 02:34, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

why not? what they do to male's foreskin is exactly a mutilation according to the definition of Mutilation beside cutting someone's genital off without a proper medical reason is against the medical ethics. if you don't know most of circumcisions have done for religions reasons so it's indeed a mutilation. beside I saw on wikipedia cutting off female genital named as FGM aka Female Genital Mutilation so why when it comes to males the double standard? beside it's not just circumcision

Penile superincision Penile subincision Circumcision Infibulation Penectomy

a lot of things have done on males and it's exactly same as FGM.now you tell me there isn't a MGM term? Faulk (talk) 04:50, 3 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
