What is the extremely cruel behavior of African tribes?

In a tribe in Africa, there is an extremely cruel behavior to women called "circumcision". When the girl was three years old, she cut off a part of her genitals and sewed them up again. Only on the wedding night will her husband cut it again to show the girl's chastity.

Compared with China's ancient foot-binding, African tribal circumcision is simply fatal to women.

This is the story of a girl named Wallis. Wallis is a little girl from an African tribe. Because there are many children at home, her father married her to a bad old man in his 60 s when he was 12 years old. For the bride price, five camels.

It was useless for Wallis to beg his parents, so he fled to grandma. 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 and his family were forced to leave. But Wallis didn't leave. Just as he was living on the street, he met a girl who worked as a waiter.

This girl named Marilyn took Wallis in and lived with him. One day, Marilyn was depressed and took Wallis to a nightclub for excitement. I brought someone back at night.

Wallis thinks it's incredible. Isn't this 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 their physical differences.

Wallis decided to make 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 Wallis' beauty and asked her to be a model. Later, Wallis was put on the international stage.

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

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

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

After watching this movie, I sincerely thank myself for being born in China. Born in such a peaceful, free and healthy country!
