Breast Ironing in Cameron

Imagine being a young girl, maybe nine or ten years old, and having to get your breasts “ironed”. Having your mother forcing you down under her weight while she presses hot stone against your chest. This is the reality of about 25% of females growing up in the country of Cameron today. The thought process behind the practice, is to deter sexual activity, thus preventing teenage pregnancy in young girls. It’s amazing how women are victimized in order to prevent male aggressors from raping and impregnating them. The negative effects of breast ironing are numerous and most commonly result in women having severely misshapen breasts and damage to the breast tissue. Brest ironing is very common in Cameron and has been practiced for many years throughout the country. The inner feminist in me finds it absurd that women should have to be the ones to “prevent men from coming on to them”.
Men are never held accountable for their actions when it involves unplanned pregnancies. The woman and her growing uterus are ridiculed and sneered at while the male who fathered the baby is free from such attacks. I’ve never heard of parents actively trying to prevent boys from having sex and making children out of wedlock. Girls are the ones who have birth control pills shoved down their throats & condoms thrown at their feet. However, such is the world that we live in and the umbrella of double standards which we are forced to huddle under.
It’s really unfortunate to know that parents refuse to talk with their children about sexual activity. An educated child is probably more likely to abstain from sexual activity than one who is ignorant and following the advice of their ignorant friends. Permanently altering a child’s body to look unappealing to the opposite sex seems like more trouble than it’s worth. For one, if a girl is beautiful she’ll be attractive regardless of breast size. Second, I doubt anyone that wishes harm upon another person is concerned about how small or large their victim’s breasts happen to be. While breast ironing is appalling to me (and plenty of others) there are people in Cameron who swear by this method of “pregnancy prevention” and see nothing wrong with it. Here’s the video, what say you?

It’s really a shame what women have to go through because of men. I can’t imagine that happening in our culture, and yet it does in so many other ways. I agree with you, men are not accounted for their actions, and thus we have to suffer to avoid the pain/humiliation that comes with them.
