Feminist Conundrum
Women's rights activist have made a lot of fuss over a woman's "right to choose". Most agree, choice is important, and the moment to protest is when choice is taken away.
Fast forward to a female activist and outspoken critic of the female circumcision found dead, after numerous threats on her life. I'd like to see some feminist lead a campaign on this, or is Gloria Steinem too busy on the campaign trail?
BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) -- Waris Dirie, the Somali-born supermodel and former James Bond girl who launched a worldwide campaign against female genital mutilation, was found by police Friday in central Brussels three days after she disappeared, the prosecutor's office said.
Waris Dirie had been due to speak to two conferences on women's rights.
Dirie's disappearance came a week after French police said they'd found the body of another former model of African origin who had campaigned against female genital mutilation.
Check your facts, moron. She was found ALIVE (means: not dead) in Brussels. Obviously your news sources are as reliable (or valid) as your opinions. Either that or you just don't bother checking your sources. Either way, not worth wasting anymore time on this "blog".
