I do think calling this act 'circumcision' is a gross misnomer. It's the difference between losing some skin and actually having the genitals themselves partially or wholly removed.

One solution is to only allow it to women over the age of 13 who will be armed during the procedure. They can simply withdraw consent by blowing the head off of the person performing the procedure. This would have the effect of significantly improving the selection process for the procedure by having the practitioners keenly interested in only performing the procedure on 'women' who really want it.
