		<description><![CDATA[Why isn&#039;t female genitalia mutilation on this list?? There are girls out there who are held down while their clitoris are dug out of the bone by fingernails without any pain medication or anything for their suffering. That is much more extreme and bizarre than a little flap of skin on a penis.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;m not even reading the other comments.  In response to circumcision and foreskin restoration, I just have to say this.

What the f*ck is wrong w/people?  Good Lord, if you&#039;re going to have &quot;psychological issues as a result of circumcision&quot; or get foreskin restoration because of &quot;a desire to regain a sense of control over their sexual organs and regaining lost self esteem&quot;, then you have got serious mental problems that have nothing to do w/your d*mn foreskin!!

I mean, really.  A sense of control over your sexual organs?  Give me a f&#039;n break.  That&#039;s the biggest load of bullsh*t I&#039;ve ever read.  Does having some skin over my penis removed when I was just brought into the world somehow mean I don&#039;t have control over said penis now?  Hell no.  

Besides being simply more practical, it looks better this way anyway.  Who wants to look like they have an excess of skin just hanging and flapping in the breeze?  Looks stupid.  

People have many more important things to deal with these days than whether a flap of skin was removed when they were born.  Get a f&#039;n hobby.  Get involved in community betterment projects.  Work towards global use of renewable energy sources.  Work at reducing homelessness and/or poverty.  Get involved against animal cruelty.  

For f*ck&#039;s sake, why does every little miniscule f&#039;n thing have to be turned into some kind of &quot;emotional trauma&quot; or issue?  Use more of the brain you have, grow the f*ck up, grow a pair, whatever it takes and quit crying and whining already. 

 Not every little thing is a personal f&#039;n attack designed to induce emotional stress upon you because, news flash, in the grand scheme of things you&#039;re really not that f&#039;n important anyway.

If you can&#039;t tell, this is kind of a pet peeve...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A comment on the hemispherectomy - The paralysis suffered resulting form the loss of one side of the brain isn&#039;t permanent. It&#039;s true that they do experience paralysis, but just as you said, the remaining brain takes over responsibility for the body.  For an example, there&#039;s a discovery channel special on youtube: 
  &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSu9HGnlMV0&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSu9HGnlMV0&lt;/a&gt; 
 
The young girl had her surgery done, and has regained a nearly full range of motion - she can even run! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@&lt;a href=&#039;#comment-13953&#039; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;dofnup&lt;/a&gt; [33]: I completely understand why having a circumcision performed for the purpose of cleaning might make you uneasy, however I would like to know how you feel about it in terms of a religious practice? (I am in no way challenging you, or proving a point [seeing as I havn&#039;t made one haha], I am truly curious)]]></description>
