The cutting off of all or part of a woman's or girl's clitoris, practiced in some societies, mainly in Africa, as a social or cultural rite of passage. Recently banned in Egypt.
Clitoridectomy or female genital mutilation involves the removal or splitting of the clitoral hood, termed "hoodectomy", with or without excision of the clitoris.
The inhumane practice of removing a woman's clitoris. Was used in USA to combat chronic masterbation in the 1800's- early 1900's. Currently used in African and middle eastern countries as a deterrant to promiscuity. Extreme practices also remove the labia and sew the wound up to only a match sized hole.
After each child, the wound is sewed up again, to give the muslem husband that new pussy feel.
Manyforms of genital mutilation occur, but one of the saddest is a clitoralectomy.
church hurt is where you experience a degree of distance, pain, or judgement from your church community. Essentially, you are just unable to “find your place”. This is prevalent in the Christian community, but can be extended to other religions.
Now that I am an adult I am beginning to heal from the church hurt that was inflicted on me as a child.
