AFRİKA’DA KADIN SÜNNETİ TARTIŞMASI: ANTROPOLOJİK YAKLAŞIM

Öz

Dünya Sağlık Örgütü'ne göre Kadın Sünnetinin (FGM) uygulandığı bölgelerde uygulamanın altından yatan bir takım kültürel, tarihi ve dini nedenler bulunmaktadır. Fakat uygulama ile ilgili tartışmalar çoğunlukla son yıllara aittir. Uygulama, kadınların dış cinsel organlarının dini, kültürel ve hatta tedavi edici nedenlerle kısmen veya tamamen bu kısımlardan çıkarılmasıyla gerçekleşmektedir. Her ne kadar kadın sünnetinin arkasında kültürel ve dini nedenler yatıyor olsa dabu uygulama kadınlara önemli ölçüde zarar verebilir ve bu zararlar yaygın enfeksiyon, kısırlık gibi komplikasyonlara neden olabilir ve HIV-Aids gibi hastalıkların yayılma şansını artırabilir. Gelenek, özellikle kadın sünnetine bir tür kadın hakları şiddeti olarak itiraz edildiği Afrika ritüellerine ait ilgili bir hikayenin popüler hale gelmesiyle kamuoyunda ün kazanmıştır. Antropolojik perspektifte, muhtemelen kadın sünneti töresindeki en büyük komplikasyon, kadınların büyük bir kısmının bu fenomene inanması, savunması ve uygulamasıdır. Bu çalışmada, literatür taraması yapılarak kadın sünneti, antropolojik yaklaşımla incelenmektedir.
