What is circumcision?

In an African tribe, there is an extremely cruel behavior to women called "circumcision". When the girl was three years old, she cut off a piece of her genitals and sewed them up again. It is only on the wedding night that her husband cuts it again to show the girl's chastity.

Compared with wrapping feet in ancient China, the circumcision of African tribes is simply fatal to women.

Here is the story of a girl named Wallis. Wallis is a little girl from a tribe in Africa. Because there are many children in the family, at the age of 12, her father married her to a bad old man in her sixties. Just for the bride price, five camels.

Wallis prayed that his parents were useless, so he fled to his grandmother. Grandma felt sorry for her, so she bought her a plane ticket and sent her to her uncle's house in London as a servant. Six years later, my uncle's family was forced to leave. But Wallis didn't leave, just as he was living on the street, he met a girl who was a waiter.

The girl's name is Marilyn. She took Wallis in and lived together. One day Marilyn was depressed and took Wallis to a nightclub for excitement. Brought a man back at night.

Wallis finds it incredible. Isn't this just for the wedding night? For the first time, she found that not all women have been circumcised.

this also makes Marilyn feel incredible. The two women compared the differences between each other's bodies.

Wallis decided to have a surgical incision. Because it's painful to pee every time for so many years. There are also some girls who died of infection after cutting. She was lucky to grow up alive.

Then Wallis met a photographer. The man found the beauty of Wallis and asked her to be a model. Later, Wallis was put on the international stage.

After becoming famous, Wallis made his experiences public. She advocates opposing this cruel circumcision of women by some tribes in Africa. This decision and practice quickly aroused social repercussions.

Although some tribes in Africa still have this behavior, it is much better than before.

This is the story of the heroine in the movie Desert Flower. It also comes from real experience.

after watching this movie, I sincerely thank that I was born in China. Born in such a peaceful, free and healthy country!
