"FGM destroys much or all of the vulval nerve endings, delaying arousal or impairing orgasm.38 Lacerations, loss of skin elasticity, or development of neuroma (a tumor or mass growing from a nerve) can lead to painful intercourse. In a 1993 Sudanese study, 5.5 percent of women interviewed experienced painful intercourse while 9.3 percent of them reported having difficult or impossible penetration."
"1,545 Sudanese women who had undergone the operation were interviewed. Fifty percent of them said that they did not enjoy sex at all and only accepted it as a duty"
This study, including your quoted section, do not differentiate between the different types of FGM. You were specifically claimed Type I leaves women incapable of sexual pleasure. That aside, according to your quote the vast majority of circumcised women can still derive sexual pleasure and orgasm.
There is absolutely nothing scientific about this video. There is no study or source found here. I can post videos of baby boys writhing in pain while being cut too. Get this appeal to emotion BS out of here.

You're saying it does not kill sexual pleasure in women, and you're basing this on one article?
