That reminds me of an article I read today while waiting to get my teeth cleaned. It was the front article in Readers Digest. Did you know that in the Samalia and many other parts of Africa are sold around 13 years old as wives for a few sheep or goats? Did you also know that woman are castrated as early as five years old and permanently dismembered?

It was an article about a famous model. Really horrific, and something I never realized was occurring.
