Unfortunately, Leftists often defend the practice because they care
more about offending the religious or cultural sensibilities of
certain groups than about defending the basic human rights of female
children. It is a shameful example of the political cowardice on
their part.

Yes, it's interesting how lefties care more about the possibility of
offending someone than they care about bodily mutilation and a
lifetime of trauma. It's nice to know that they have their
priorities right...

Straw man.

Can you point to a single "lefty" who has given any indication of not
caring about bodily mutilation, female circumcision, etc.?

I thought not.
