There have been articles in women's magazines, one by a very prominent model who was 'circumcised' in her country of origin, in which the barbaric nature of the act and results has been described. There are also several websites that describe the various aspects of female circumcision. Let's say first that the purpose of female circumcision is not esthetics as is in males. It is done to remove all sensitivity to sexual pleasure. The idea being that women exist for the pleasure of the male, child bearing and have no need for sexual fulfillment. This also is intended to prevent women from adultery. In some cases the vagina is sewn closed so that a prospective suitor is assured a virgin, and after intercourse the vagina is sewn closed again to assure fidelity. Female circumcision is most common in Africa and South America. Although illegal in many places including the United States it can be assumed that peoples for whom this is a social custom continue to have their female children 'circumcised.' It is obvious that female circumcision is based in certain religion based cultures. In African countries with large Christian populations, female mutilation is illegal. The United States has made entreaties to other countries to make female mutilation illegal as a human rights issue. But among those who believe that female circumcision is based in their religious culture, it is completely justified and reject all criticism of the act.

I think that blacks respond to movies in the same way that is common in many churches where direct participation and response is quite common. However I would trade Hispanics in a theater for any other ethnic or racial group every time. My experience has been that Hispanics are more obnoxious and rude than any other identifiable ethnic group. This appears to me to be lack of social skills. In any case it is distracting and irritating to pay the price of going to the movie and have inconsiderate people degrade your enjoyment of the film. I was at a revival theater a few years ago watching The Grapes of Wrath (1940) and several pagers and alarm watches were heard. I thought that at least audiences in 1940 did not have to put up with those distractions.
