Zusammenfassung
Es ist offensichtlich, dass die weibliche Genitalverstümmelung zu unseren Leb zeiten abgeschafft und ausgetilgt werden kann . Wir sind in der Lage, die zu unterrichten, die an verirrten Glaubensvorstellungen und schadlichen Praktiken festhalten , und wir konnen ihnen bessere Wege des Umgangs mit sich selbst, mit ihrem Leben, ihrer Reproduktion und Sexu alitat beibringen. Wir wissen , dass jeder Mensch auf der Erde die Fahigkeit zu lemen besitzt. (...)
Meinen herzlichen Dank an die Teilnehmerinnen der Konferenzen der H.F. Guggenheim Foundation zur Gewalt gegen Frauen für ihre Kommentare und Vorschläge zu diesem Beitrag, mein besonderer Dank gilt Russell and Rebecca Dobash, Karen Colvard, Liz Kelly and Monica McWilliams. Claudie Gosselin und Ronald Wright danke ich für die Schärfung der Schlussfolgerungen. Der kanadische Council, der kanadische Rat für Sozial- und Geisteswissenschaften und die „Connaught Fellowship“ Stiftung der Universität von Toronto haben meine Forschung finanziert. Mit Dankbarkeit erkenne ich ihre Unterstützung an. Der größte Dank gilt jedoch den Frauen von Hofriyat; unser Dialog geht hoffentlich weiter.
