Does anyone know which government agency specifically deals with people who attempt to perform FGM on British girls? That's who this needs to be reported to. If this person is in the UK they can presumably be followed up with by the police.

LassWiADelicateAir · 03/04/2018 20:03

It is still there - along with various anti-Semitic posts too.

CAAKE · 03/04/2018 19:48

I had the same report message as you Terf but the account and tweets are indeed still there 🤨

BoreOfWhabylon · 03/04/2018 19:17

They haven't taken it down though.

TERFragetteCity · 03/04/2018 19:13

Result - I'd already reported the account before this thread...

^ You dont need a Twitter account to report, but you do need to supply an email address.

Report a child exploitation issue to Twitter;

Appalling. Reported to Twitter.

Recently there have been a rash of pro-FGM Twitter accounts. Few seem to follow each other. The language in them is vile.

If they are troll accounts and please God let them be trolls then one has to ask who is trolling whom?

NotBadConsidering · 03/04/2018 11:04

The idiot doesn't even have basic information on a normal vagina. 'Smegma' for fucks sake

Which is why I think it's a troll. All of the things listed are reasons for male circumcision.

Kneedeepinunicorns · 03/04/2018 10:48

Absolutely disgusting.

Nowhere is mentioned the pain and terror of little girls illegally removed from the country to be forcibly held down and subjected to this
That it's done without surgical equipment or required standards of cleanliness or care
That its purpose is to prevent sexual pleasure in girls/women
The death rate
The extreme complications
The horrific effects on women giving birth through a mess of scar tissue
The idiot doesn't even have basic information on a normal vagina. 'Smegma' for fucks sake.

The experience, feelings, needs and actual humanity of women is completely missing. For obvious reasons.

mamas12 · 03/04/2018 10:06

Vsorry didn't explain myself
There is a department investigating FGM you could complain to as promoting it

bastardkitty · 03/04/2018 10:03

I've reported. Thanks for sharing.

Gileswithachainsaw · 03/04/2018 09:59

I'm Angry and Sad that anyone could say such a thing.

CAAKE · 03/04/2018 09:54

I've just emailed the link to the tweet to the NSPCC. Contact details here -

I don't see any sarcasm in those posts. Fucking hell.

bellasuewow · 03/04/2018 09:47

Reported to Twitter. The poster is clearly mad.

CAAKE · 03/04/2018 09:46

I reported this tweet some days ago. I'm disgusted that it is still there! I'm now going to report it to the NSPCC.

rowdywoman1 · 03/04/2018 09:44

It is an offence to 'counsel' someone into having FGM so maybe this would qualify?

rowdywoman1 · 03/04/2018 09:43

FGM (as I'm sure most know) is a criminal offence in the UK. Prosecution guidelines here:

Time4adrink · 03/04/2018 09:39

How can this be reported to the police? @mamas12

NotBadConsidering · 03/04/2018 09:35

To me, it reads like someone masquerading to point out the double standards regarding male circumcision.

FencingFightingTorture35 · 03/04/2018 09:29

It's completely real.

mamas12 · 03/04/2018 09:26

There is a specific department in the police that deal with this please report it to them and see how Twitter likes that
