International Woman’s Day on Monday March, 8 is a great opportunity for grotesque gynecologists Kavita Shah Arora and Allan Jacobs to stop dehumanizing women and railroading Westerners into swallowing barbarous, foreign customs — hook, line, and sinker.
The U.S.-based doctors’ potty proposal in the British Medical Journal calls for a “compromise solution” to female genital mutilation, a life-threatening, non-medical procedure that butchers the clitoris and lobotomizes a woman’s sexuality to appease the whims of sadistic men. The rite is outlawed in America, but Muslims, Coptic Christians, and Ethiopian Jews continue to mangle vaginas with impunity — just because.
Physicians such as Shah Arora and Jacobs should be healing the harmed and enlightening the ignorant, not pushing amendments they claim will stop Westerners from being “culturally insensitive and supremacist and discriminatory towards women” and prevent “vacation cutting,” a trend where girls are taken to their homelands during summer months to have their most intimate part sliced and diced like a turkey. The torturous practice — often done in unsanitary conditions without anaesthetic, using rusty blades, knives, broken glass, and thorns — leaves victims with lifelong pain, suffering, and unhappiness.
Somali-born activist Ayaan Hirsi Ali, who was genitally mutilated at age 5, says manglers are usually family, adding to the defenseless victim’s helplessness.
“The people who are doing this are fathers, mothers, grandmothers, aunts,” she says.
Feminist banshees are oddly silent over the rotten rite practiced in dozens of African countries, and in Malaysia, Indonesia, Egypt, Yemen, Iraqi Kurdistan, Oman, Jordan, and the Palestinian territories, plus in the diaspora communities in America, Europe, and Australia.
Female genital mutilation bastardizes a woman at her core, and should be reviled and criminalized everywhere, but obtuse obstetricians Shah Arora and Jacobs are too busy exploiting it for personal gain to care much about civil liberties or Western ideals.
By their diabolical reasoning we should let immigrants from Madagascar dance with corpses on national feast days, allow Indian-Americans to toss newborns off roofs to hail a 500-year-old tradition, and permit Shiite Americans and their kids to publicly cut themselves with razors until they bleed to celebrate the death of Mohammed’s grandson.
What bull.
