An inglorious cut, for sure

Female Genital mutilation or FGM, as some of us know it, is quite an inglorious thing by my standards.

It involves cutting a woman's (or girl's!) clitoris and distancing a woman from sexual feelings and desires. A woman fails to reach the acme of sexual pleasure. Besides not enjoying sex, health risks and death are part of the bargain here.

This is nothing less than infringement on women's rights. But someone has to stand on the rooftops and shout down this infringement.
As things stand right now, a number of African communities have their hands deeply buried in this murky bog that derives its impetus from gory cultural practices.
