Although female genital mutilation isn't in the koran, it apparently does find some support in the hadiths. This from islamonline:Wow, these guys are so scared that the women will find out they are lousy in bed and leave them for a better lover, that they take away the woman's sex organs so real happiness won't ever tempt her. If I ever saw someone about to do that to a girl, I would kill them to protect her from lifelong unhappiness. What do you think about women who are disabled because their sex organs are chopped off, Mo3? I'm hoping that you will tell me you are strongly against it.
Quote:However, the most moderate opinion and the most likely one to be correct is in favor of practicing circumcision in the moderate Islamic way indicated in some of the Prophet's hadiths – even though such hadiths are not confirmed to be authentic. It is reported that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to a midwife: "Reduce the size of the clitoris but do not exceed the limit, for that is better for her health and is preferred by husbands". The hadith indicates that circumcision is better for a woman's health and it enhances her conjugal relation with her husband. It’s noteworthy that the Prophet's saying "do not exceed the limit" means do not totally remove the clitoris.

Even partial removal of the clit traumatises and causes pain. This alone will prevent most of those women from ever having an orgasm. Most of the time none of the clit is left however, and it's a guarantee of no orgasm. The reason that the men prefer it, is 1; the women don't go searching for the sexual pleasure their husbands can't give them, and 2; the mutilation also usually includes the surgical reduction of the hole size, so the new husband can pretend to himself that his cock is bigger than it really is. For the woman, it means that her first time with him is painful, not just boring cuz she has no sex drive anymore, but painful too. After each kid, they sew her up tight again so he can rip her open again.
This practice will soon be a thing of the past. The women over there are starting to find out what has been done to them and what they are missing in sexual pleasure because of it. They are not happy.
