In this episode, I take an honest look at the tou’a practice, focusing on the difficult topic many avoid, the tou’a who willingly engages in relationships with married faikava men.

I share real testimonials from wives who were cheated on, betrayed, or even abandoned when their husbands ran away with tou’as, revealing the deep emotional trauma and lasting impact on women and children left to suffer in silence.

I also address the troubling silence from some Tongan churches, questioning where the accountability and moral leadership are when families are being destroyed.

This episode is part of the ongoing Ban Tou’a advocacy to expose harm, break the silence, and push for lasting change in our communities.
