Female circumcision

[xoxoxoBruce]

I fear it will never be eradicated. Laws won't work, not even when it's something that is normally exposed in public. For something not seen in public, forget it.

Education might....someday. But with the cultures and reasons so diverse, you'd have to come up with a different campaign in every country, maybe every tribe, or even every village.

I'm not saying don't try, but damn, it sounds impossible even with a shitload of resources, which of course don't exist.

I'm sitting here wondering if it would be most productive to convince the mothers or fathers? I'm thinking the fathers. Not just because of the third world power balance, but if you can convince the males that cut females are less desirable, or not at all, the mothers and girls will come around quickly.

Am I wrong?
