Going bananas for condoms?
Condoms galore!
What colour pack would you like?

I’m currently attending the XVIII International Aids Conference in Vienna and came across these great images (at least I think they are).
Oops, somehow I caught my reflection in this picture hence the strange orangey/reddish tinge

Enjoy!
P.S: I did think to myself, I wish Nana Kofi was here to take these pictures for me

“It’s not very often one gets to decide what their dick will look like”. With this chuckle-inducing thought and a half smile playing at my lips, I pulled open the unimposing glass doors of Babeland and stepped in. I was on a mission, to find a harness and dildo combination that was simple and straightforward enough for first time (girl-on-girl) use.
In spite of the shop’s unfortunate ‘playboy-mansion-esque’ name, my first impressions were very positive. The space was open, brightly lit and awash in calming pink and yellow pastel hues, the subtle (+)(-) logo cleverly hinted at the goods, and the three salesgirls chatting by the book section greeted me with very cheery hellos. I …

I found myself getting irritated Saturday afternoon, I was at my favourite Auntie’s grooming & nails centre (Q’ticules & Nails, 8 Volta Street, Airport Residential) and the radio was tuned to Joy FM which was transmitting a live feed of the presentations being made at their Bridal Fair. I hadn’t been irritated throughout the presentations. In fact I had enjoyed the presentation by Bernice Sam who spoke about the legal aspects of marriage and reminded the audience and Joy Fm that the Bridal Fair needed to be more diverse in recognizing that in Ghana there are 3 legal forms of marriage – traditional, Christian and Islamic. That led me to turn and say to my …

I have to confess, I have political ambitions. 2 years ago I thought maybe I should aim to be a Member of Parliament and work my way to being a Minister (I quite fancy being Minister for Information). The ultimate of course would be to run for President but as a person with dual nationality that office is out of my reach. I then started this blog (on a whim) and thought ‘I guess I can’t run for public office again’.
One of the strategies used to control women’s behaviour is labeling. So much import is placed by society on how a woman is supposed to act, and straying beyond certain parameters can lead to …

*SIGH*
I’m not even sure where to begin with this article. Sometimes, someone brings something so absurd or fascinating to your attention that it captivates you for a few days.  Yesterday morning, I found myself gob-smacked by an article that was passed along by a reader to Nana and I. The following link ( http://news.myjoyonline.com/politics/201006/47648.asp ) chronicles the verbal smack down between Ursula Owusu and John Jinapor in which he intimates that she has engaged in prostitution to fund the building of her house in response to her comment that some NDC politicians had been able to build homes within 6 months of coming into power.
Now, if this had been the response of some Average Joe, …

A friend cracked me up some time ago when she said to me,
‘Nana I don’t want to fall in love with X. Tell me what to do’.
Yes, falling in love with the man you’re shagging is a bad idea. A very bad idea, especially when the relationship revolves purely or mainly around sex.
Quite a few women I have spoken to tell me that the longer they sleep with someone, the more they begin to connect with them emotionally. An emotional connection in a buddy relationship is problematic for a number of reasons. Here are some hypothetical (yet true to life) situations that make falling in love with your buddy difficult:
• Your relationship …

I woke up at 2 a.m. feeling a little offended. For whatever reason, images of naked Black women have been racing through my head all night and I can’t seem to shake them. And by ‘naked’, I mean full frontal and butt cheek nudity.
If you were to step into my subconscious dream world, you might get a better understanding of what I’m talking about. You could do that…or you could flip on Nat Geo (the National Geographic channel) to get a gander of I’m talking about. I’m talking about ‘tribal nudity’, folks. In other words, Black boobs.
I’m a little offended because whenever there is a wide shot of a bevy of Black beauties scampering …

A few weeks ago i became ‘re-acquainted’ with my cousin Boakyewaa Glover when i bumped into her at a bar in Accra. She invited me to the launch of her book ‘Circles’ (which I’m totally engrossed in at the moment), and coincidentally we were both invited to a radio station the day after her book launched to speak on why so many ‘accomplished’ women are single. We followed up by meeting later for a drink and since we’re fans of each others writing decided to do a tag post. Check out www.boakyewaaglover.com for her version of Sexual Lessons and see below for my side of the tale:

From one ex (ex is a term i am …

I really need your advice. I’ve been seeing this guy for 6months now, he’s cute, nice , caring, and very generous. The main problem is the sex is so crappy, sometimes I end up crying. We have foreplay and as soon as his penis goes in he
goes flaccid within 2mins. This happens all the time. Even when he manages to stay hard he never comes. In the 6 months I have been with him he has never come. I’m confused as I believe I will cheat on him really soon but I really like him.
Please help me.
