Luckily, while waiting for my license, Dr.Z offered me to be her assistant at her clinic. Not bad, at least I can gain some more experience and make some extra cash.

Soon I learn that’s it is s a humbling experiencing. Most of her patient of Egyptian and Middle Eastern descents prefers to be cut by the Master Clitoridectomist herself. My job mostly is cleaning and disinfecting before the cut, and injecting painkillers. Sometimes shaving as well.

It’s late afternoon. Dr.Z is away, doing some house calls. Some women prefers doing their clitoridectomy in the privacy of their own home. Some of the Muslim family also do celebration for their daughters’ circumcision, so it’s more convenient to do it at home.

Suddenly the bell rings. Someone is at the reception desk. It’s a young teenage girl and her mother. The girl looks like she’s in pain but remain calm, the mother looks very nervous. I can tell from their blonde hair and blue eyes that they are not Egyptian or Arab descents

Mom: “Please doc, you gotta help my daughter”

Sally: “What happened ?”

Mom: “She cut herself down there. I think her clitoris is almost off. Can you put it back ?”

I look at the teenage girl. She’s very calm despite the pain. She even smiles and blinked an eye at me. I took her to the exam room. I ask the mom to wait outside. The last thing I need is a panic, screaming mom telling me what or what not to do with her daughter.

After cleaning the blood, I can see that her clitoris is nearly off. Looks like the only thing I can do is to remove her clit and laser the wound to stop the bleeding. Her clit can’t be saved.

But wait, ……how old is this girl ? She looks very young. I’m still waiting for my license, and I can’t risk losing my license and even go to jail for cutting an underage girl. So I inject her with painkiller and ask her a few questions.

Her name is Anna, and she’s 17. That’s below the legal age of doing clitoridectomy. She’s been wanting to have a clitoridectomy so badly. So she masturbated and tried a few sharp things on her clit. Scissor, blades, shaving razor, kitchen knife, anything around the house. Then she found daddy’s cigar cutter in his drawer and thought it’s the perfect tool to do the job.

Then she placed her clit in the hole of the hole then snapped the blade. That’s how she ends up here with me.

Sally: “Well, Anna. Congratulation. You got your wish”

Anna: “Really? Cool”

Sally: “I know your mom asked me to put it back, but I have no choice but to remove your clit”

Anna looks excited. However, since she’s underage, I have to talk to her mom and have her sign a statement. At first her mom insisted to have Anna’s clit stitched back. I have to explain to her that’s impossible. The only option is to remove it completely and laser the wound. And if we don’t do that ASAP she could get an infection. She should be perfectly fine in two weeks. Lots of women are clitless and perfectly fine. Virtually all Egyptian women are clitless.

Mom finally agrees and signs the statement.

I go back to Anna. Only a tiny bit of skin between her severed clitoris and the rest of her body. All I need to do is snip it with a scissor. The cigar cutter actually did a nice clitoridectomy job, the cut is quite clean. Maybe I can try to experiment is with the rubber clit later. Or with someone’s clit. Then I laser the wound. She put on her clothes and good to go.

I put her clit in a specimen jar with preserving liquid. I hand it to her before she leaves the door. “Can’t wait till next year, can you?” I whisper to her ears. She takes the jar, smiles and walks away.

Just before the door, she walks back to me and takes something out of her pocket. Then she whispers to my ears, “Here, you can use this. I don’t need it anymore”

It’s the cigar cutter……………
