I did not know that FGM was a thing in Somalia...I am so sorry for these girls and my heart goes out to all of them...I hope that we will see the end of FGM soon as well as early marriage being banned and ended forever....I'm praying for these girls in Somalia 🙏

The term "FGM" is discriminatory when used generally as here. It was coined by a radical feminist who had a cultural background of genital cutting according to which her own sons should have their genitals mutilated. For that reason it was imperative for her to establish a sharp distinction between her cultural cutting practice and African ones which don't treat girls differently from boys. So instead of using this exclusionary deeply sexist and racist term drop the "F" and simply call it GM to include all victims, the vast majority of which are boys.
