BBC article

Absolutely shocked to read the percentage of girls still subjected to this in Egypt.
Not sure what else to say about it really - I honestly do dispair of people sometimes.

Them poor little girls! How someone can do something like that I don't understand. There's a chance they could bleed to death and they don't care.

Horrible. We have a friend who was married to an Egyptian woman. He was very matter of fact that she'd had the tip of her clitoris snipped off. He said it was paying lip service to the practice and claimed her parents were foreward thinking because she hadn't been infibulated.
