[Livia]

Roughtly 200 million females are the victims of female genital mutilation in the world today. This means at best, their clitoris is removed with a razor blade or scissors and at worst, their clitoris and labia are removed and they are sewn up leaving just a small hole for urination and menstruation. Those who don't bleed to death or die from infection go on to have massive problems with sex (penetrative sex is almost impossible without pain and injury) and childbirth puts the mother and child at risk of a painful death. FGM is practised almost entirely by Muslims... a patriachal religion where women have almost no say in their own lives.

This barbaric act is carried out in order to keep Muslim women from having sexual thoughts and to keep them pure for marriage. So... are we surprised that the countries supporting FGM not fans of the West, with our feminism and our equal rights?
