    There was this time I gave a talk about my experience to a group of students from in 2017 & I said "clit" the reaction omg! Now when I give talks, either on TV, radio or events, i don't use the word "Clitoris" I just say female genitalia.

    Every-time I share my story, it changes people’s mindsets for good. It takes courage to speak in-front of people about personal FGM experience. If what was cut were lips & nose, everyone would make a priority, but since it’s done to hidden genitalia, it’s hard to justify!
