Ending Female Genital Mutilation

Female genital mutilation (FGM), female circumcision or 'cutting' is child abuse which can have serious long-term consequences for a woman's health, including menstrual problems and difficulties in childbirth.

FGM is illegal under UK law. It's also illegal to take a British national or permanent resident abroad for FGM or to help someone trying to do this.

Great work! Such bravery shown by the survivors in sharing their story. This film needs to be on television in commercial breaks at least up until the end of the school summer holidays.

Am so sorry the survivors had to go through this

I hope these women get justice, pace, and are one day able to become happy.

For craps sake, leave your poor kids alone, let them be kids leave their bodies alone, your child will be going through enough pain when they become adults later on, dont make them grow up any sooner than they need to

It is a shame, only to keep woman more sad and unhappy

I appreciate your kind gesture for being the perfect doctor you really are, cause living with genital herpes was never a great thing for me, the pains itching gone thank God I finally got a cure

[Kanasubigi]

and what about male genital mutilation? no one talks about that huh?

[xyffypb]

Bless these poor souls. I can't imagine the hell they've been through. The loss of intimacy, the break of trust, the agony...I hope this backward practice ends and the evil people responsible pay for the crimes

and was telling to people it is not ok to cut skin from male penesis but
now i know t is ok and once i told it is like women dont have skin on
clitoris but i know it is not same.

The Iranian lady says we need to keep our children safe, children includes boys, because the Koran does not mandate any physical cutting for either sex:male or female, even in a biased, patriarchial society where women have no say .The wounds are permanent .nt only physical, but emotionally, mentally and spiritual

Let's bring it back. I have my reasons.

Before you talk about FGM you better talk about Gender affirming surgeries which is dangerous and worse than FGM and Europeans Americans and Asians practice gender affirming surgeries so please stop hypocrisy
