It was advertised in popular magazines as a desirable operation for women. Health insurance plans covered it. Depending on your age chances are your older women relatives knew a woman who had had the operation or they might have had it themselves. It was popular up until the 1970s.

This one is hard to read because it's written in yellow ink but it says "Circumcision for Women".
