    I drive for Uber and a young woman in a sorority said she told her sorority sisters that she went through general mutilation and they now treat her cold. They avoid her. That’s so awful on so many levels.

    • @fayrefitness5416
      @fayrefitness5416 2 роки тому

      I bet those same sorority girls become mothers who cut their sons. They who ostracize a girl for being mutilated, will in turn mutilate their male infants. All of it needs to stop. Cutting children to conform to society, cutting children as a covenant with God, cutting children to diminish sexual pleasure... it's all the same. The intent might vary, but it's all an unnecessary, barbaric act on a non-consenting child.

      sororities and fraternities should be avoided. they are all underneath the same umbrella and are puppets to the highest fraternity of them all: masonry. people think they are joining them to get a leg up in the world but the higher you go the more messed up and satanic it is when you get in too deep.

      Well at least now she knows that that soro bs ain't all that.. imagine if they could use her story to create more awareness... those dumb girls are sleeping on a huge opportunity to be celebrated in the future... they are so short sighted.. I pray that girl finds a real sisterhood.
