Circumcision ( female genital mutilation)
The phenomenon of circumcision is the act of mutilating the female genital in order to prevent women feeling sexual pleasure. A lot of books describing Arabic Countries especially describe the terrible way women feel about this, but when we have the chance to meet girls who have experienced this in their life, in their own flesh and in some cases twice because the family thought that the first time had gone wrong, the first reaction is simply terrifying. After that the human mind becomes conscious wondering different questions about the topic.
I personally
had the chance to meet some of those young women who were so willing to share
this issue with me, serving as a spiritual release for them. How can a human
mind be so devilish to take away the divine right of the person in this case
“female” to feel pleasure, how could the human called man be so cruel, self
centred and super egoistical to do this to his wife, to his daughters, to his
sisters only for the sake of honour, was human mind sick all the time in some
directions or simply lacked lore?
A lot of Arabic countries as well as African like Somalia, Sudan, Eritrea have been doing this process to their female children varying from 2-3 months old – 8 years old in order to keep their ego calm that these little amputated girls would become well behaved, would not dishonour their family names.
Men throughout the centuries have thought of their way of being comfortable without considering feelings, opinions or objection of women showing this way their leadership role really strict and inconsiderate also. Being such dishonest against women they ruled and their ego prevailed the society.
Education is the key to reach development and equality, both qualities lacked in the countries where the cruel action of circumcision happens until nowadays. Wisdom makes the man behaving better toward others, allowing the female and other members of society being able to have freedom of choice, thought and what is the most important behaviour which allows females to live freely in many parts of the world where this tradition is frowned upon.
The expression in the faces of innocent people who have been hurt in a way or another have some traits in common showing their hidden anger, sadness, weakness and disability to protect themselves as a result of being unable. These young women I had the opportunity to talk to will suffer forever the consequences of the past as in some cases the time does not give the possibility to recover. Circumcision is not forgotten neither forgiven as the feeling not to have a feeling that God and nature donated but human denied is so strong affecting the mind repeatedly over and over. Educate generations so they would be able to inherit values, not pain, stress or hopelessness.
