  • Wadhii Podcast Episode 2: Religion and African Sexuality
    Dec 20 2024

    Abigail Arunga talks to Neo Musangi, a scholar and researcher of African sexualities and genders. This episode is an exploration into religion, and African sexuality. We know that Africans have been traditionally polygamous and polyamorous for many years - why don't we talk about our relationship diversities, ever? What happened to our previous arrangements and sexualities - the use of rot among the Luo, marriages of women to other women among the Kamba, or the planting of the spear as sexual signage amongst the Maasai, for example? Why and how did these things change, and more importantly, where is the research?

  • Ginger Garlic - To Circumcise or Not?
    Jan 4 2024

    Circumcision is almost a universal practice in Kenya with over 80% of men in the country said to have undergone the cut. For many in the country, the cut is tied to cultural practices, a mark of the transition from childhood to adulthood. This is a stark contrast to global trends where just about a third of the men in the world are circumcised and circumcision around the world is mostly tied to religious reasons and, in some cases, medical reasons.


    So, which way should one go? Cynthia and Linda dissect this rather sensitive topic in the latest episode of Ginger Garlic.
