From the Paper:
"As the world continues to globalize cultures are coming together and sharing traditions and values. Many of the traditions being shared have a positive impact on the cultures that they touch, but there are other cultural traditions that shock outsiders worldwide. Female genital mutilation is still practiced in several parts of the world. The practice of female genital mutilation should be outlawed, because it is degrading to all women whether or not they personally participate in it."Cite this Essay:
