"IRIN | In-Depth: Razor's Edge - The Controversy of Female Genital Mutilation | AFRICA: When Culture Harms the Girls - the Globalisation of Female Genital Mutilation | AFRICA | Children | Gender Issues." IRIN • Humanitarian News and Analysis from Africa, Asia and the Middle East - Updated Daily. 05 Mar. 2005. <http://www.irinnews.org/IndepthMain.aspx?reportid=62462&indepthid=15>.
"WHO | Female Genital Mutilation." Feb. 2010. <http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs241/en/>.
Both of these websites are written and funded by humanitarian organizations and both are advocating against female circumcision. They analyze the procedure of the practice and discuss its numerous health consequences. WHO discusses the poor international response, while IRIN focuses on personal stories of circumcised females. Each one provides good information to define female circumcision and to develop the "so what" question.
