What is frightening to you about sex? Do you find it repulsive? Are you afraid it will hurt? Do you dislike men? Apparently there is no physical obstacle.

Hi and thanks for using the forum.

I just want to be clear, did you have a female circumcision done?  With a female circumcision, the clitoris is often removed and the labial skin is stitched together, leaving only a tiny opening for urination and for menstruation.  I am not sure if this is what you are referring to.   Could you clarify?
