Y'know, I had to read your post at least three times before a could cotton on to what you meant!

There are several types of mutilation, ranging from a minor piercing of the clitoris to the complete removal of all the external genitalia.

In some cases, what remains is then stitched up with coarse thread - leaving a tiny hole, perhaps just the size of a matchstick, for urinating and menstruation.

Sometimes clitoris is removed and the hole is opened with a knif on the wedding day
