Female Genital Mutilation Throughout the World – A Practice Not Followed by the Roma (“Gypsies”) (8 Pages, 95.6 USD)

This 8 page report discusses the cultural practice of female genital mutilation or FGM. According to human rights organizations, there are between eight and ten million women and girls in the Middle East and in Africa who are at risk of undergoing one form or another of genital mutilation. In spite of the myths that have evolved about the immorality of Gypsies, most Roma follow strict rules of sexual behavior and there is no evidence of FGM in their culture. Roma expect females to be virgins when they marry and to remain faithful to their husbands until death. However, they feel no need to practice GGM to assure that such is the case.

Ritualistic Female Mutilation (9 Pages, 107.55 USD)

A 9 page essay on the practice of female genital mutilation considered traditional in many parts of Africa. Though not as prevalent in the cities, the estimated numbers of girls subjected to the ritualistic surgery, normally without the benefit of anaesthesia, is between 90 and 94 percent. When researchers ask why the mutilations are performed, the standard reply is that it is tradition, or (more rarely) that it enhances beauty. Native women are working with villagers to help end the practice, trying to help them see that not only is this surgery unncessary, it is also physically and psychologically damaging for a life time.
