Attitude toward female genital mutilation among Somali and Harari people, Eastern Ethiopia

[Crow]

FGM was always a women thing. It's ceeb for men to even discuss it.

By trauma, i meant trauma surrounding FGM. Men do not go through it.

FGM is orginally a patriarchal concept that is a fact. So, in your words, how do you think it started? You think that women woke up and decided to inflict pain on themselves?

Its laughable that you completely ignore/dismiss the historical origins of FGM. In a patriarchal society, women's virginity and pureness is linked to the families honor. Women, were not telling themselves it, society that is run by men conditioned them. In a patriarchal society like Somalia, men historically believed that the only way a woman's virginity will be intact is by sewing her up.

Women, gain nothing but pain from FGM, whilst historically men got a woman they believe to be 100% pure.

Female circumcision is a matriarchal practice men have nothing to do with it like women have nothing to do with male circumcision.


Matriarchal societies of the past like the Nubians practiced this if it has roots in patriarchy like u said then why did matriarchal societies like ancient Nubia practice it? Circumcision (both female and male) is of African socio-religious origin and predates abrahamic faiths.

Fgm is so 2000s.i want a wife with clit

So all these women were being cut so they could improve their chances of getting married to a farax and to guarantee their virginity

I don’t care if men’s attitude has shifted what matters is that the whole thing started to please MEN.

You can't forgive for what they did to you. I understand. Must be the reason you are a dyke.
