Why do feminists ignore vuvlar infibulation when it happens to children assigned male at birth? Let's hear what insiders at an anti-FGM organization think the answer is.

V. Anti-FGM resistance to intersex justice

Activists pushing for an end to the practice of FGM have had little involvement in past efforts to end unnecessary and harmful genital surgeries on intersex children. From an insider’s perspective at an anti-FGM organization, anti-FGM activists have identified four likely factors to explain the disinterest in addressing intersex genital cutting: “(1) a lack of information and knowledge on what intersex entails and which ‘treatments’ are imposed on intersex persons, (2) an unwillingness to recognize that ‘Western medicine’ could be wrong or even harmful, (3) the fact that intersex persons are seen as too small a minority for their cause to be important, (4) a discomfort in thinking outside of the gender binary” (Florquin & Richard, 2020).

then carry those discussions into families and neighboring villages. In 1997, Malicounda Bambara made a landmark public declaration abandoning FGM. Thousands of communities later followed the model, making collective change, not outside coercion central to Tostan’s approach. #fgm #humanrights

#FGM in #TheGambia: “the outcome of The State v. #FatouCamara and Others reminds us that the legitimacy of the criminal justice system depends not only on the outcome of a case”, but on an adherence to the rule of law. www.jurist.org/commentary/2...

This is my amicus brief field in support of the plaintiffs in Hadachek v. Oregon to inform the court of the interests of intersex, trans, and/or gender-expansive people in the matter of genital mutilation laws and discrimination on the basis of sex.

2018-10-25 - Gender Reassignment

Another #based take from #StoneToss exposing the misandrist double standard at the core of the #circumcision issue. In light of increasing awareness of the trans and nonbinary phenomena, otherwise "liberal" parents unwittingly do #FGM... OOPS!

2018-08-30 - Meaty Discussion

Much-needed #based take from #StoneToss with a twist that exposes a hypocritical double-standard. "Muh (((hygiene))) and everyone does it and it looks nicer..." Why is genital cutting of girls a war crime but a trivial parental choice for boys? #FGM

#Kenia: Ein Kollege hat dieses Foto von mir gemacht. Ich mag es sehr. Ich bin darauf im Gespräch mit einer unserer RAIN WORKER+. Wie bei den TREETINGS nutzen auch wir den Schattenplatz, um uns auszutauschen. Sie ist Hebamme und erzählt mir über ihre Arbeit mit Frauen, die von #FGM betroffen sind.

Ein sehr großer Baum, sehr trockener Boden, blauer Himmel, strahlende Sonne - man sieht die Hitze. Ich sitze mit einer kenianischen Kollegen im auf zwei blauen Plastiksesseln im Schatten des Baumes.
