THE VIRGIN MYTH

In Karma the little gypsy girl falls into the hands of the demented Mumbai madam, Mrs. Pawar, who intends to sell her to the highest bidder as a cure for HIV/AIDS.

In many countries of the world today people believe that if a man, infected with HIV/AIDS has sex with a virgin then he will be cured.  You can read about domestic violence activist, Betty Makoni, who suffered rape at six years old. The Zimbabwean is quoted as saying, “The youngest girl I ever came across was a day-old baby who was raped.”

Betty Makoni’s organization, the Girl-Child Network has over 700 girl’s clubs in Zimbabwe to help “transform victims into leaders.”

In sex trafficking situations, little girls are sold to HIV/AIDS infected men who rape them hoping for a cure. Afterwards the girl’s vaginas are sewn up by their owners—not by a doctor and without anesthesia . . . and they are resold. The sewing up of freshly torn flesh insures that the next rapist will have the satisfaction and reassurance of hearing the girl’s screams and seeing blood.
