Georgia peaches unsullied by piercings.

In another move certain to prevent me from ever living in Georgia (the reasons just continue to pile up,) the Georgia House has banned genital piercings for women (including adult women.)

Genital piercings for women were banned by the Georgia House Wednesday as lawmakers considered a bill outlining punishments for female genital mutilation.

The bill would make such mutilation punishable by two to 20 years in prison. It makes no exception for people who give consent to have the procedure performed on their daughters out of religious or cultural custom.

An amendment adopted without objection added "piercing" to the list of things that may not be done to female genitals.

AND FURTHERMORE:

The ban applies only to women, not men.
