- W3121305568 abstract "This 1995 article surveyed western, indigenous, and cross-cultural feminist discourse on the status of genital mutilation (FGM)/female genital cutting (FGC) under international human rights law. These harmful traditional practices, (referred to in the article variously as irua, FGM, FGC, or genital surgery (FGS)), involve the most private aspects of individual female physical and cultural identity. Yet, the damaging physical and emotional health effects and the gender discrimination implications made the practices a topic of widespread international feminist human rights advocacy. The article examined the key controversies raging at the time--terminology, domestic criminalization, international condemnation, health education approaches, and gender-based asylum. The paper assesses the known origins of the practices and traditional justifications as well as indigenous and international efforts to eradicate FGM-FGC. In addition, the article explores the meanings of cross-cultural solidarity among feminists in the African diaspora and feminists in practicing regions on the African continent. The article concludes that feminist human rights approaches to FGM-FGC must address the unavoidable conflicts associated with eradication efforts and seek to create opportunities for engaged cross-cultural dialogue on ways to end the practices." @default.
