The bizarre and savage practice of "breast ironing"

Barbaric:

BBC News on Friday examined the practice of “breast ironing” — which some mothers do to their daughters in Cameroon in an attempt to prevent sexual advances of boys and men — and a recently launched campaign to curb the practice. According to BBC News, breast ironing involves “pounding and massaging the developing breasts of young girls,” most often with a wooden pestle and sometimes with heated bananas or coconut shells. Statistics show that 26% of girls in Cameroon undergo the practice during puberty, BBC News reports.
