Virginity test today

INKS WITH THE MOTHERLAND IN THE PROCESS! » LET’S GO BACK TO BLACK VIRGINITY AND SAVE OUR BLACK GIRLS HEARTBREAK! -THESE ZULU GIRLS ARE REVIVING THE AFRICAN TRADITION OF VIRGINITY!- FROM EASYSEASYGOES.BLOGSPOT.COM By Yeye Akilimali Funua Olade    Monday, March 9, 2009 Physical Virginity Tests in Africa!!!!!! To all Ladies out there – anyone of you dare to take this tests ?????????? Thousands of girls in South Africa are queuing up each month to prove that they are virgins, reviving an African tradition seen by many as the answer to the scourge of AIDS. Bare-breasted teenagers wearing nothing but strings of beads and colourful loincloths regularly submit to the ordeal of having a stranger check if their hymens are intact, leaping for joy when the test confirms that they are still virgins. (After the tests are done – these girls who passed are given certificates!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) Advocates say the revival of the rite, which had died out in all but a few rural areas late in the 20th century, is the most effective way to stop the spread of teenage pregnancies and the deadly HIV virus, believed to affect one in 10 South Africans. Opponents argue that the practice is unconstitutional, unhygienic and violates the human rights of those being tested. “Those who are behind the comeback…say that if we test young girls to see if they are virgins they will be fearful and will not engage in sexual activity,” said Phumelele Ntombela-Nzinande, former deputy head of the Commission for Gender Equality. “We are arguing that this practice undermines the principles of equality, freedom and human dignity. It is difficult to tell whether or not a girl has had intercourse and after touching about 600 girls you can easily transfer infections.” Girls between the age of seven and 26 lie on a mat in front of the woman doing the test, which only takes a few seconds. It is often carried out with bare hands and the tester seldom washes them. Girls who pass get white stars pasted on their foreheads and a certificate confirming their virginity. “We have come here to celebrate and keep our culture going,” 16- year-old Brenda Mkhize told Reuters television after her test. “It’s better to be a virgin than to have AIDS and have a baby at the age of 16…we don’t see any reason to sleep with a guy, and I think I will stay like this until I get married.” Mkhize was one of hundreds of girls attending a virginity celebration at a sports stadium near Durban in December. Afterwards, the girls sang and danced in traditional Zulu fashion. “We are here because we are proud of ourselves, because we are virgins,” another girl said. Any volunteers from Asia for this tests?????? Well physical virginity tests were also reported in India as shown in the video above dated August 3rd, 2009. That so called tests received widespread condemnations by leaders and elders. Posted by bebek at 4:07 AM
