Mainichi Daily News: An alarming 10 percent of high school students who have had a sexual experience are infected with the sexually transmitted disease chlamydia, a Health, Labor and Welfare Ministry research team has found.

Teresa Wiltz, The Washington Post: Eroticism certainly played a part in Lynndie England's torture of the prisoners at Abu Ghraib. Sexual humiliation was a big part of the game. So what then are we to make of her? Is she just a cultural bogeywoman, a Halloween costume that so many of us donned last October? Or is she emblematic of something more, the old funhouse mirror reflecting back at us?

Altnet.org: How was Liberating Masturbation received when you first published it in 1974?
Betty Dodson: Basically, I was overwhelmed at the success, particularly because I was publishing it myself because no one would touch it. The book was seen as a joke so I had to get accustomed to being everyone's favorite joke. The concept of talking about masturbation -- men thought it was hysterical and women though it was repulsive.

IPS: Until 2003, Salmou Himadou was one of those who carried out the reviled practice of female genital mutilation, also referred to as female circumcision, in Niger. But two years ago she laid down tools with the help of a non-governmental organisation (NGO) which has realised that finances, as much as tradition, are at the heart of this practice.
"The NGO gave me a 50,000 CFA franc (about 100 dollars) loan to fund a new business. Thank God, I’m making a lot more money selling spices than I was as a circumcisor," Himadou, who hails from the southern region of Tillaberi, told IPS.

PRNewswire: Female genital cutting is on the
decline in some areas, and practices are changing, according to a new report.
Also known as female circumcision and female genital mutilation, female
genital cutting (FGC) varies among ethnic groups and has been widely
misunderstood, says the report.
"FGC is practiced in only about 25 countries in Africa and in some
immigrant populations in Europe and North America. FGC is nearly universal in
just a few countries like Egypt and Guinea. In other African countries, FGC
prevalence varies from 5 to 75 percent of women," says Dr. Stan Yoder, author
of the report.
