	Understanding the association between parental attitudes and the practice of female genital mutilation among daughters Cappa, C.; C. Thomson; C. Murray Plos One (2019) CC Open external link (169) Add to my MEDBOX Female genital mutilation is a harmful traditional practice that violates girls’ right to health and overall well-being. Most research cites social acceptance, marriageability, community belonging, proof of virginity, curbing promiscuity, hygiene, and religion as motivations for the practice. It is generally assumed that individual attitudes of parents and other family mem- bers have an impact on decisions related to the cutting of girls, and that such attitudes are influenced by social norms. The aim of this study is to understand how parental attitudes towards the practice of female genital mutilation influence decision making related to the cut- ting of girls Tags: FGM, FGM/C, female, female genital mutilation, Source: https://journals.plos.org/plosone/articl

Available data show that the practice of FGM/C is highly concentrated in a swath of countries from the Atlantic coast to the Horn of Africa, in areas of the Middle East such as Iraq and Yemen and in some countries in Asia like Indonesia.
