I’m A Survivor of Female Genital Mutilation Part 2

In Part 2 of this week’s episode of The Professional Homegirl Podcast, Eboné’s guest shares the devastating impact of female genital mutilation (FGM) on her mental health, including body dysmorphia and sexual trauma. She bravely reveals her first sexual experience, which resulted from marital rape from her first husband. However, over time, she shifted her mindset on sex, from faking orgasms to exploring her sexuality, which made sex more pleasurable. Eboné’s guest also opens up about how FGM affected her relationship with God and how her religion shifted her thoughts on her ideal man. The conversation also delves into the challenges she faced during her pregnancy, both mentally and physically, and how delivery felt like she was experiencing FGM all over again. Furthermore, she emphasizes the importance of ending FGM through education and providing support to survivors of female genital mutilation while encouraging them to seek justice.
