[QUOTE]Originally posted by fathima: [QB] Cairo Times, Cairo Three months ago, 22 year old medical student Najwa Khasmera Abdullah decided to have herself circumcised. Female circumcision was banned in Egypt in 1998. As a result, many young women of Najwa's age did not recieve circumcision at the age they were normally have it, around 15 or so. However, in the past few years, the ban started to lose its grip, due to pressure from religious leaders. " Uncircumcised women have strong lust and often commit adultery, just like western women. The government made a mistake by banning it. We Egyptians should not be pressured by the western countries. We need to keep our women chaste" a religious leader stated. " A lot of my friends are getting it done. My sister and cousins too. We didn't get circumcised when younger because it was banned, but now I'm glad I'm finally circumcised" Najwa said. Her claims were confirmed by Dr. Yasmina Shamir, who runs a circumcision clinic and also performed Najwa's circumcicion. " I circumcise more adult patients lately, sometimes 10 young women a day. Mostly of Najwa's age. "They didn't get circumcised when younger because of the ban. But when they want to get married, usually the men demands that the women must be circumcised before marriage." Being a medical student, Najwa is completely aware of the female anatomy and the function of the clitoris, which is removed during circumcision " I think circumcision is good for women. I know the clitoris can bring pleasure, but it is also a great temptation for women. It's best to remove it. Women don't need their clitoris for marriage and having children anyway." She said "I don't agree with girls being circumcised by untrained village midwife with unsterile razor. That's why I chose to have my circumcision done by a doctor" Najwa said while showing her preserved clitoris in a jar. "Female circumcision is a very minor and safe surgery under modern medical supervision. The wound is even smaller than that of male circumcision" Dr. Shamir stated. She also stated that female circumcision procedure done by trained doctors has become increasingly affordable even by poor families. Some Islamic Foundation or Mosque even routinely provide free circumcision for the poor, both males and females. Well, old habit die hard, people say. Looks like Egyptian women are not going to let themselves go wild like their western sisters. yours sister in islam fathima fathima309@yahoo.com [/QB][/QUOTE]
