most of the countries that its practiced in hate the US and therefore hate the UN, you don't take advice from people u don't like. and all those supermodels like iman and waris dirie that are trying to stop this in their country (somalia), well their efforts are really futile. somalis view these women as sell-outs, they are a very proud people and for a women that the view as a disgrace (cuz she poses half naked, and had a kid outta wedlock) to offer them advice is a slap in the face. the only way this practice will stop is with more education and the women of the countries to want it to stop.
