The silence of the feminists!
The National Organization "for" Women has been a favorite subject of mine, mostly for their silence on issues such as human trafficing and the treatment of women under Sha'ria law. Now comes this story from The Sydney Morning Herald.
"WORRIED that her daughters' budding breasts would expose them to the risk of sexual harassment and even rape, Philomene Moungang started "ironing" the girls' bosoms with a heated stone.
"I did it to my two girls when they were eight years old. I would take the grinding stone, heat it in the fire and press it hard on the breasts," the mother said. "They cried and said it was painful. But I explained that it was for their own good."
It's WHAT?????? Yes I understand that protecting a child from rape is a good thing, but when you have to resort to mutilation to do so something is dreadfully wrong with society!
When is NOW going to start speaking up on issues like this where women are really being abused? Instead of demanding that women should be allowed to kill their babies up until the moment of birth, lets start demanding that women and young girls be able to live in a society where there parents do not have to mutilate them in order to prevent rape (or worse).
