Regaining one’s virginity is all the rage amongst Muslim women in France. A quick 30-minute operation termed ‘hymenoplasty’ allows non-virgins to have their hymen re-sewn, meaning these women are technical virgins once again.
Sitting in a cafe near the Champs Elysees, the 26-year-old French-born woman of Algerian descent looks like any other Parisian. But two months ago, she did something none of her friends have done. She had her hymen re-sewn, technically making her a virgin again.
This 30-minute outpatient procedure, called "hymenoplasty" and costing between 1,500 and 3,000 euros ($2,000-$4,000), is increasingly popular among young women of North African descent in France.
