So, Dani's back in town, for good now. We're chilling this coming weekend since my alcoholic aunt is staying at my house. Anyway, we're hopefully going to try and finally go get pierced while we're hanging out. So, I go to google to find out about the local place that does stuff fairly cheap, 'The Vault' it's called. Anyway, I do a search for '

A)Who is this?

B)Again, the bill is in and of itself a good thing. The piercing thing got added on, most likely unknowingly to most of the people who supported the bill. Also, it seems, many of the politicians had no clue genital piercings were something people did voluntarily. The Bill will never get passed as is. Right now they're reviewing the piercing part and will more than likely remove it.

What probably happened was the Georgian legislature was reacting to what has been a brutal tradition from some parts of Africa. Some parts (I believe Guinea) make it customary to do weird things to vaginas, like sew them shut until the person gets married. In America, that doesn't really fly, though, because it's probably pretty painful and gross. So, in making sure they used the right words to completely ban it, they accidentally banned the more "conventional" genital piercings?

Well, apparently there was a recent case of female circumsision in Georgia. I personally never heard about it. But I guess it's causing a big fuss. But yuh, you've got the basic jist of it. Except for the part about Africa.

I gather it's sometimes practiced in uber-fundamentalist Islam, usually in North Africa and the Sahara. *sighs at general stupidity of planet*
