Best Answer

The excision of the protective prepuce or foreskin from the glans of the penis. or in the case of Female circumcision (Genital Mutilation) the cutting of the clitoris and or the cutting of the clitoral hood and or the excision of the labia majora and minora and the sewing together of these so that only a small opening is left for the urine and menstrual fluid. this is a cultural concept that is required of girls in order to be accepted into their society. There are no short words for this.
