International Day Against Female Genital Mutilation (3)
-------------------------------------------------------
Thanks to Lisa Minotti for bringing some important issues into the
spotlight. The idea that "traditional practices" are being destroyed
by insensitive and arrogant outsiders can also be a deterrent. It is
important to note that many groups have found a way to continue the
traditions, which are important to them without causing women to suf-
fer as a consequence.
