The Sex Lives of African Women by Nana Darkoa Sekyiamah

dark emotional informative reflective sad fast-paced

4.0

What an amazing journey of self discovery, healing and freedom. I still have no words to describe how this book has changed me but I know it did. It opened my mind and taught me different ways of living, different relationship dynamics, different ways of experimenting sex and aging. It has also broken my heart with so many stories of abused women, some of them while still little girls, some of them with the consent of their own mother, who should know better and protect, and stories about the prejudice african women suffer when living abroad, being seeing as good women to have sex with but not to be married with, even by african men. This book is a reminder that violence against women is very real and still present on our society.
