Been fuming for the last couple of days after reading about a medical paper in America suggesting we soften our approach to FGM (article here). Apparently we are being culturally insensitive to people by wanting to punish people who commit FGM.
Is it just me or has the medical world gone mad? I have spent 8 years involved in campaigns against FGM then some crazy person (IMHO of course) comes out with a paper that the very premise of makes me want to vomit. So aggrieved about this as those who want to continue with this barbaric tradition will roll this rubbish out to defend their position every time they are challenged in the future.
