#FGM is about controlling female sexuality.
- We must talk about sex & a woman’s right to desire & pleasure
- Saying #NoFGM is saying I own my body, not the state, mosque, church, street or family

Here are statistics for #FGM prevalence in #Egypt that I refer to, via @28TooMany:
With prevalence of 87.2% among all women aged 15-49, in population of 95 million, Egypt has the greatest number of women and girls who have experienced FGM in the world.

- There is NO excuse or justification for #FGM.
- There are ZERO benefits for it.
- It must NEVER be justified as “tradition/religious teaching.”
- The goal of FGM is to control female sexuality.
- FGM is a harmful practice that must END. Everywhere.
