Just wondering...do these French women who join ISIS get the ritual female mutilation...circumcision? Is is like a Brazilian waxing?
In Mosul, little girls and women up to and in their 40s must have this.
The WHO differentiates between four different types of Female Genital Mutilation:
Type 1. Excision of the clitoris prepuce (“Sunna-circumcision”) and of the clitoris or parts thereof.
Type 2. Excision of the clitoris prepuce, the clitoris and the inner lips or parts thereof. Type 1 and 2 are the most common types of FGM: 80% of the affected women have gone through these procedures.
Type 3. Excision of part of or all of the external genitals (“infibulation”, also referred to as “Pharaonic Circumcision”). Afterwards the remaining parts of the outer lips are sewn together leaving a small hole for urine and menstrual flow. The scar need to be opened before intercourse or giving birth, which causes additional pain.
Infibulation is mainly spread in the Horn of Africa and its neighbouring areas – in Somalia, Djibouti and Eritrea, as well as in the northern part of Sudan and in the southern part of Egypt. It is the most severe form of FGM and affects 15% of the women who suffered FGM.
Type 4. Uncategorized. Pricking, piercing, cutting or stretching of the clitoris or the labia, also burning or scarring the genitals as well as ripping of the vaginal opening or the introduction of corrosive substances or herbs into the vagina in order to tighten it. Plus: any other procedure, which injures or circumcises the female genitalia.
