Egyptian Sexologist Joins Circumcision Debate

After Egypt's Mufti, Ali Gomaa, joined the anti-female- circumcision campaign in Egypt by declaring it, along with the Coptic Pope, against Religion, Cairo-based sexologist Heba Kotb joins in and says: "I'm totally against female circumcision. There is no religious or scientific reason for it, but it does not affect sexuality. A woman keeps her nerve endings. I'm opposed to circumcision because it's part of the human body and it's not the right of anyone to cut your body."

Bit of a wishy washy statement that could have been much more forceful coming from a sexologist.
