For Kurdish Girls, a Painful Ancient Ritual - Wash. Post

[mcity]

Sheelan Anwar Omer, 7, enters a room looking for the party her mother had promised. As a local woman closed the door behind her, her mother told her to take off her underwear. This Kurdish neighborhood considers female circumcision

All I can think of is "that is a horrible, horrible party". If you click through to the second image, you can actually see the neighbour woman closing the door and the look of joy on Sheelan's face, right before her childhood dies.
