A topic that we love to discuss here at How You Feeling: Disappointment. We complain about people disappointing us with their actions, or lack thereof. So why do we accept it? Why don't we have the conversations that will hopefully correct the behaviour? If it matters enough to us to be bothered by it, and complain about it, why do we hesitate to confront? 

Author, sex educator, and historian Habeeb Akande joins me to discuss his book, Kunyaza - The Secret To Female Pleasure. His mission is to close the gender pleasure gap and teach people how to be sexually satisfied with traditional cultural practices. His book aims to center, celebrate, and venerate the Black woman's narrative through their contributions, as well as debunk the stigma of female pleasure.

The How You Feeling podcast has always been a sort of investigation into how we are feeling and what we should be doing to make a change, if necessary. In this episode, Fran talks about solitude. The struggle with balancing solitude with healthy social practices. Many people find it very difficult to be alone. Or the idea of being single for any length of time scares them. Often times, there is a reason they struggle with solitude. Sometimes we need to challenge ourselves to find happiness with one's self. Being alone doesn't make you lonely.

In a recent email, an event was brought to my attention, called "Girl, Keep Your Legs Closed" tour. If that title doesn't scream shame and judgement, I don't know what does. How can we create safe spaces for anyone to share thoughts, concerns, questions and be open about their sexuality - regardless of their decision to have sex - if we come at them with fire and brimstone? Shame has no place in female sexuality, especially Black Female sexuality.
