The world needs to know about this - I'm glad you're brave enough to speak out. -
They often call it female circumcision but it's not circumcision, it's castration and it is so very, very wrong. I hope people listen to you -
good one julia good luck xxx ricky -
Brave woman! I'll be rooting for you! -
Well done. Female mutilation, which is really female castration, is an indefensible, barbaric practice. Good for you, speaking out aginst it. -

good luck with developing the conversation about your cause... -
Will be watching live from my office in Melbourne, Australia. Julia, i think you are incredibly brave, especially as I don't like heights! your message is an important one, even if you get one person to go away a bit more aware of the issues, it will have been worth it!
