I wanted to look up certain individuals that had gone through FGM. I heard the Waris Dirie was actually a very successful and famous person that went through FGM. I thought this source was useful in telling me about her. I would not use this for cause and effect of FGM.
Wang, Sheng. "Female Genital Mutilation - Medhunters Medical Community." On Target Jobs. Med Hunters. Web. 4 Dec. 2009.
I used this source to get the medical definition of FGM. Showed caused and effects of FGM. Was especially useful in giving descriptive detail about FGM. Would not use this site to look up anything else though. Didn’t show much of what would happen to a woman emotionally.
Unfpa. "Promoting Gender Equality." Population Issues. Unfpa. Web. 25 Nov. 2009.
This source gave a lot of useful information. A bunch of links to different issues reguarding FGM. Really good for looking up straight forward facts. It is not biased.
"Mosaic of Solutions Ending Abuse in Intimate and Family Relationships." Mosaic of Solution. 2009. Web. 2009.
This website showed the worth of women in societies and what measures are being takin to change issues. Not good if you want to know about FGM. This is more of a website showing how they are helping with FGM.
El-Naggar, Mona. "Voices Rise in Egypt to Shield Girls From an Old Tradition." The New York TImes. New York Times, 21 Sept. 2007. Web. 25 Nov. 2009.
This is just a article talking about Egypt today and FGM. Shows how many girls are being mutilated a year and why they are being mutilated. Also shows what people are trying to do to change this harmful practice.
"Pelvic Inflammatory Disease." Experts for Everyday Emergencies. Emedicinehealth. Web. Dec. 2009.
I didn't know what PID was so I looked up PID. This is good for getting medical facts about a certain disease. Is not good if I want to know about FGM. PID is caused by FGM. Shows what long term complications PID can cause. More like a website for medical diagnoses and precautions.
