    It's IRONIC how women who went through the harmful & agonizing ritual of FGM still put their own daughters through it? Whatever their answers are, our ultimate goal (as anti-FGM advocates) is to enlighten them & prevent this from further happening to other children.

    Inasmuch it's advisable to use 'subtle ways (sensitization rather than condemnation)' to end FGM, we implore the GOVT to involve the MEDIA to help enlighten the people on the adverse implications of FGM and that perpetrators will be made to face the full wrath of the Law.

    Faduma Ali, 86, still remembers the pain of being circumcised at eight. Horrific as it was, she allowed her own daughters to go through the same ordeal. But when it came to her granddaughters, she decided to step in & stop it. We need more repentant mother like her!

    FGM will never end until MEN also throw their weight behind efforts to eradicate it - if men said "NO" to FGM, certainly, families wouldn’t get their girls cut again. Men must also be agents of change when it comes to the fight to end FGM!

    Many traditional circumcisers have realized the harmful effects of FGM BUT have refused to stop the cut. WHY? To them, the medicalization of FGM is like robbing Peter to pay Paul (selective justice)! There's should be an outright ban on it - TRADITIONAL or MEDICALIZATION!
