Today is the day the world seems right and I talk a bit '.
So what are the MGF?


The definition that seems more summary is this:
"Female genital mutilation comprises all procedures involving partial or total removal the external female genitalia or other injury to female genital reasons cultural or other non-therapeutic reasons "[ Pediatrics online ]

in detail the practices are these:

• The first type is the clitoridectomy, that involves the removal of the prepuce, with or without excision of part or all of the clitoris. We say that is the "lighter"
• The second type is the total excision of the clitoris with partial or total excision of the labia minora
• The third type is called Pharaonic circumcision or Sudanese provides total excision of the clitoris which is of the labia minora as well as partial or total excision of the labia majora. The third type is also part of the ' infibulation, or the stitching of the labia majora, leaving a small hole for the release of blood and urine.
• The last type is so disgusting that they have not even ranked, but there is, and how if it exists: include suturing, ol'incisione the piercing of the clitoris and / or labia, stretching of the clitoris and / or of the lips, the cauterization of the clitoris and surrounding tissue by burning, the demolition of the tissue surrounding the vaginal orifice (angurya cuts) or cutting of the vagina ("gishiri cuts"), the introduction of substances or herbs in the vagina, and any other procedure to produce alterations of the female genital tract.

Now you may ask: but why?

• sexual reasons: to subdue or reduce female sexuality
• sociological reasons: eg. initiation of girls into adulthood, social integration of young people, maintaining cohesion community
• hygienic and aesthetic reasons: in some cultures, female genitalia are considered carriers of infection and obscene
• health reasons: it is sometimes thought that the mutilation conducive to female fertility and survival Baby

The documents will tell you that I have attached also the where and how, I really do not have the heart to write further. These things are really abominable, every time I think I am wrong. The thing that shocked me most is that in many cases it is the same mothers who insist that these practices are done on their children. When they told me I am almost started to cry, but how?
cultural reasons. Ah! Cultural a horn.
ignorantaggine level of some people is matched only by the absence of the brain. I kill with my bare hands instead of seeing my daughter treated like a salami to adjust at will, just because it is considered impure or overpowered. Yuck. Yuck. Yuck.
When you read the description of one of these practices that you feel a rush along the entire body and you are a thrill right there where the pictures did. Yuck.
Just because they were born that way. Women. Indeed, females . What a disgrace
born females. Even in 2011. Some people are convinced that we live in a world advanced. This is a world that pretends to be civilized, but that does not really give a damn if these things happen around the corner.
Please, a round of applause to our civilized world .
And if you have daughters, tell them these things, not keep them locked up in fable we live in a society edge, as do almost all parents.
