Butt out over virginity tests, minister told

[schumi]

Durban - “Butt out.” That was the blunt retort from cultural organisations to Social Development Minister Bathabile Dlamini after her call for a review of the practice of virginity testing.

“Enough is enough,” said Nomagugu Ngobese, of the Nomkhubulwane culture and youth development organisation.

“We are sick and tired of being spoon-fed policies that were drafted without us that are destroying our society,” she said.

In an article published on IOL on Wednesday and in the Daily Maverick online edition, Dlamini said: “Forced virginity testing is unlawful, will not stop the spread of Aids and offensive.”

The call to review the practice could be viewed as a slight to King Zwelithini, who revived the practice more than a decade ago.
