Nope, he is not confusing it, both are practiced in Africa due to various religious and other reasons.

I understand the practice and history of circumcision, it has its roots in Judaism. But there is no doctrinal practice in Judaism nor Christianity regarding a clitorectomy. Which is a far more invasive proceedure than the former and can only be so that women cannot enjoy sex.

I phoned up the clinic the other day to enquire about circumcision.....I got cut off.:doh:

:har: :har: :har:

As antikristuseke wrote, it's a local custom. Female genital cutting is the entry for it in Wikipedia.

:nope: :doh: :haha: :har: :har: :har: :rotfl:

Do you have a book on your desk with these in or something Jim? :shucks:

I remember hearing a lyric years ago :

"He makes love like a footballer...........he dribbles before he shoots"

I just make them up as I go along http://imgcash3.imageshack.us/img524...nocchioij9.gif

A man enters the hospital for a circumcision. When he comes to after the procedure, he's perturbed to see several doctors standing around his bed.
"Son, there's been a bit of a mix-up," admits the surgeon. "I'm afraid there was an accident, and we were forced to perform a sex-change operation. You now have a vagina instead of a penis."
"What?" gasps the patient. "You mean I'll never experience another erection?"
"Oh, you might," the surgeon reassures him. "Just not yours."


Two little children are in a hospital, lying on stretchers next to each other outside the operating room---the first surgeries of the day.

The first child leans over and asks, 'What are you in here for?'

The second child says, 'I'm in here to get my tonsils out and I'm a little nervous.'

The first child says, 'You've got nothing to worry about. I had that done when I was four. They put you to sleep, and when you wake up they give you lots of Jelly and Ice Cream. It's a breeze.'

The second child then asks, 'What are you here for?'

The first child says, 'A circumcision.'

'Whoa!' the second child replies. 'Good luck, man. I had that done when I was born. Couldn't walk for a year.'


Did you hear about the baby who was born with no eyelids, and the doctors had to take his foreskin from his circumcision and make eyelids for him?

The kid is going to be alright, he's just going to be a little cock-eyed!

What kind of football dribbles before taking a shot? Did you mean basketball?

Bah, Americans...

I think he was talking about football, not handegg.:D

Which one? Girly man spotted ball or British field brawling? :O:

Heh, if we take this any further we will both come out loosing, lets call this a draw.:salute:

Agreed. But I was genuinely interested in what he meant by dribbling before taking a shot (i assume on goal).

The only sports related use of that term that i know of refers to basketball. How does it apply to European football?

I've heard the term used at school, but Canada probably doesn't count.

Anyways, it is just lightly kicking the ball in front of you, moving it. Actually, quite similar to basketball dribbling.

Ahh thanks!
