keevacaereniI genuinely feel ill at this.
Dr. Dix Poppas at Cornell University (apparently an Ivy League school) is surgically removing parts of young girls' clitorises. He does this when he judges the girls' clitorises to be "too big". The children are roughly six years old. The operation is entirely unnecessary to the girls' health.
After the operations, he has been testing their sensitivity by stimulating their clitorises with a vibrator. While the parents watch. There is no evidence that this helps them in any way, as if sensitivity is lost, it's not as if he can replace the removed parts. These girls are old enough to remember this.
Where does this bastard get off?
