On Sunday, Pope Francis condemned female genital mutilation and the trafficking of women for prostitution. He called the act humiliating and putting down women’s dignity. Moreover, he urged the officials to do everything possible to end both. “This practice, which is unfortunately common in various parts of the world, humiliates the dignity of a woman and gravely attacks her physical integrity,” Francis let out, speaking on the UN International Day of Zero Tolerance for Female Genital Mutilation (FGM).
