A funny and frank discussion about sex and dating in Africa.
“Where there is danger, I love it,” Queer activist and writer Solange Kibibi says. “Because sex is more interesting where it’s risky.”
Director Kwame Asiedu who has recently moved to Accra from London feels ‘the love that I'm receiving from everybody here is definitely elevating my spirit.’ So why does he still find dating challenging?
“If you're looking for that version of sex, sexuality, relationship traditionalness, I think it's a scary place to be right now,” says journalist and entrepreneur Vickie Remoe, as she explains why she thinks her dating life is full of twentysomethings.
They unpack all that, more, and some share some spicy sexy secrets.
