If FGM mostly involved cutting off the clitoris then your critique would be relevant. Not saying people should genitally mutilate their children, but the two issues are both medically and culturally identical.

The only evidence to suggest that "most" FGM is the more extreme kind comes from feminists with a chip on their shoulder who sampled clinics for women suffering from disorders arising from FGM.

That's like sampling an optician to find out what percentage of the population have short sightedness.
