    The first time cutting season came around, Nice Leng’ete and her sister ran away and hid in a tree. The second time, her sister refused to hide. Leng’ete never forgot what her sister suffered, and as she grew up, she was determined to protect other girls.http://nyti.ms/2AXmfgH

        Traditions and practices of barbarism often supported by governments but where is the condemnation and support for the women from EU and DEM progressives here Maybe think what you defend or condone with hypocrisy

        Don’t see how mutilating a little girl can be considered civilized in any culture! Barbaric!
