(Begin quote) ...you head to the dressing room with a swimsuit flirtatiously monogrammed with cherries and begin to slip the suit on. Right there in the crotch of these cutesy bikini bottoms is a sanitary liner that jolts you out of your pampered and privileged life -- and not because you're horrified by the realization that the suit has come into contact with other people's private bits. The hygienic protector is a new advertisement for the Association of Women Against Genital Mutilation that features an image of a rusty razor blade and the words, "Every year 2 million girls worldwide are unable to avoid genital mutilation." (End quote).
I've been dipping into the Salon.com article queue abit much lately, but this is one I couldn't resist.
