Female genital mutilation is the partial or total removal of female external genitalia for non medical reasons.
In Kenya, over 4, in Africa 125, while Globally 200 million survivors are living with scars of FGM. Not just data but women & girls who were mutilated! #EndFGM
It is hard to justify the pain, trauma, complications & suffering we endure in silent.
What if the 200 million survivors were walking without their lips & noses? What if the scars were visible on the face rather than hidden genitalia?
Why isn’t #EndFGM a Global priority yet?
Every day a girl is mutilated in the name of culture.
Others use Religion as an excuse.
We have left our traditional attire, food & houses but want to justify FGM as culture.
Double standards!
How is harming a girl’s genitalia even cultural?
Humanity is lost. Prioritize #EndFGM
Majority of those supporting FGM, call activists people who are after donor funding, imposing western cultures.
But unfortunately, they don’t see the harm done to girls, the complications we suffer & the lifetime trauma attached.
No more suffering!
Be the voice today ! #EndFGM
