Desert Flower (2009)
6/10
Cultural imperialism and double standards
15 April 2017
This films is one of the worst examples of people forgetting that when you point one finger at something, three fingers points back at you...

Sure I find circumcision disgusting too, and it is good that the story is told.

BUT telling the story using a women sick with underweight like a KZ prisoner, claiming her looks as pretty, sort of destroys the whole project...

OTHER cultures attacks of the female body to suit its ideals we shall see as disgusting, but OUR cultures ideals suppressing females by malnutrition are tooted as positive....

Embarrassing that this obvious dilemma is completely ignored, how blind of our own faults can anyone get? Double standards at its worst?
