Reply to Eli5: Female circumcision by ThreesomeInk
It varies, different places have different practices, but it can often include removing the clitoris and some even sew the entrance to the vagina up (to be opened up later for her husband). The former is done to reduce female desire/pleasure so she won’t be unfaithful and the latter is done to ensure her virginity for her husband. it can be done on infants but is often performed on children or preteens. it can cause a lot of dangerous and painful effects.

Reply to comment by speculatrix in LPT Request: How do I give up sugar? by Nightblade81
Yes I agree, it’s best to cut down slowly, letting yourself adjust. If you just cut it out abruptly you’ll find some things boring, have cravings and probably backslide.. when I’ve tried to do it quickly I end up giving in to a craving and gorging on something. After slowly lowering it I now hate really sweet things I once loved.
