 hudgal1 says: It's appalling to me that such practices still exist at all, much less that they are commonly accepted as the 'norm' in some places. Egypt isn't even what most people would consider a 'bass-ackward' country by most. Anyone know the background as to how this became the 'norm'. It defeats my comprehension. And why one loving female relative would be responsible for having it done to someone they love defeats me entirely, never mind the serious health risks involved. Its this appalling practice and the relatives willing to mutilate, that these poor girls need protection from! I am shaking my head. I cannot understand it either. It is barbaric. I know it is NOT Islamic. Though frequently it is portrayed as such. Not Islamic? Perhaps someone could point out the Christian, Buddhist, Shinto, or Jewish community that practices this barbarity? Not Islamic? Perhaps someone could point out the Christian, Buddhist, Shinto, or Jewish community that practices this barbarity?Exactly. Nice dodge attempt there. First a display of total ignorance and stupidly. You were told my someone who would know and that should have given you pause. Perwana786 said ... "I know it is NOT Islamic. Though frequently it is portrayed as such."But no, you must plough straight in with your sectarian bigotry. One might hope that on such a sensitive subject that you might exercise some decorum but no, as usual, blind stupidly. A case of the blind leading the blind. If there was a cliff to go over, this pair would surely find it. How hard would it have been to Goggle this? Is it their male genital mutilation - circumcision - that leave them so lacking in normal cop on. Earlier today I pointed out to the Nazi informer his inability to use Goggle at its simplest. Now again 30 seconds would show the fool his ignorance and hid his sectarianism. "In cultures where it is an accepted norm, female genital mutilation is practised by followers of all religious beliefs as well as animists and non-believers. "Most of the girls and women who have undergone genital mutilation live in 28 African countries, although some live in Asia and t... Thank you Righthand. I figured the trolls would come out. Bigotry/hate is very very blind indeed. Google this: Who Practices FGM? According to the United Nations, it is estimated tht over 130 million women have had some form of FGM performed on them. This practice is often associated with the religion of Islam, and is most often perfomed in Middle Eastern and North African countries. In both of the African nations of Somalia and Djibouti, 98% of women have had this procedure. Because of immigration, however, the practice of FGM has recently become more prevelant in Europe and North America. Concerns for the health of women and girls as young as three who are subject to this procedure, have led to legislation making FGM illegal in the United States. In 1994, a bill to ban... You are a cheat and a fraud as well a sectarian bigot. You are not worthy of being a clipper. Is that why you are not allowed clip? I was suspicious when you did not quote your source as would be normal for any honest clipper and like I did with the WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION, a source above reproach. Fortunately, unlike you, I can Goggle and found your supposed source. You dishonestly inferred that your source was the United Nation. That is a lie. You source and not the UN as in ... "According to the United Nations, it is estimated tht over 130 million women have had some form ... Who says I am not allowed to clip? You? Let's see proof of that OUTRIGHT LIE. Guess all those clips I have appeared magically. I should probably call David Copperfield, maybe he did it. Secondly, I am having fun watch you hang yourself with slander, libel and insults. It's fun watching the dollar signs ring up.  Thirdly, you CLAIM to have clipped from the WHO World Health Organization. Prove it- you didn't in your comments here, there was NO LINK to your 'clip' . Next... Fourth- I did not even quote you or your 'comments' That was ColoradoRight, certainly not YOU. Talk about egg on your face. Fifth- You incorrectly claimed that I "dishonestly infe... This practice, which is actually a form of castration, is a means of subjugating women, which is an important tenet of most religions. Cutting off the female genitals keeps women faithful. It restricts sexual pleasure for men alone, and further removes all power and independence from women. This practice may be primarily Muslim, but all three Abrahamic religions are rooted in a culture that regarded women as property, and as dangerous threats to patriarchal dominance. |
