Comments on: What shall I blog on next? http://adventuresfrom.com/2009/04/23/what-shall-i-blog-on-next.html We think there is a serious lack of relevant and useful information about the sexuality of African women.

However, apart from the mess (and the fact that cunnilingus would be a no-no - unless you're REALLY freaky) I see no problems with it. Also isn't pregnancy almost impossible under those circumstances? (Yay for condom-less sex! Don't y'all agree that it feels so much better?) Just be damn sure neither of you has HIV :)<br /><br />Speaking of cunnilingus, how do people feel about rimming (anilingus)? Anyone tried it?

Towels tend to be reasonably absorbent, so your juices wont seep into the sheets. Then again who cares about a few bloodstained sheets if you can have that wonderful O. Furthermore, a purely delicious advantage of sex during your menses, is you don't have to worry about lubrication and that makes it all the more sweeter! I really don't think there should be any issues with it. I'm curious to find out what you and others think. Would be interesting to hear about the abstinence thing too. Apart from psychological "re-virginisation", like Nana Yaw mentioned, there is actual physical re-virginisation where people get a surgical procedure to sew back their hymens... What a world we live in! <br /><br />A sex shop in Ghana? No kidding! Just before I read your comment Esi, I swore to myself,there's no way that there'll be a sex shop in gh, which is why Nana has to come to America to do her sex toy shopping. I'm totally blown away by this. I've been away for far too long!

I love your curious, intelligent, up front approach. Where have you been all my blog-life? :)<br /><br />I vote for No2. Why? Because it's The African Womans' Conundrum and I think it would make for interesting reading if you blogged about it. I totally get some of the reasons why some women may want to abtsain/remain celibate and I respect those reasons. It just puzzles me as to why no sex = good and having sex automatcally = bad. Not having sex has little to do with being a 'good girl' - what does that really mean? - and does not guarantee in anyway that you'll get married. Just like having sex does not mean you won't make a damn good wife one day...<br /><br />Who gets to decide who's good and who's not; and why is sex the deciding factor? How does that explain abstainers with selfish, dark hearts and indulgers with rigorously high moral codes?<br /><br /><br />Also, re paying for the cow you already have for free... According to the parents of a certain friend of mine, it is advisable to try before you buy. They don't want to hear that just because their daughter is being 'good' she ends up pledging the rest of her life to someone with whom she has no sexual chemistry whatsoever, or worse...someone who 'fires blanks'.<br /><br />Really curious to see what you think...
