Ep. #16 | Sex for Grades A case study on Ghana, On the backdrops of African traditional gender roles, internalized misogyny, female genital mutilation Ft. Tshima

She's back! Welcome back! My sister and I are back in this two-episode special. In this episode, we dig into how sex-for grades have become a thing in Africa and how men are using their positions of power to assault and exploit their female students, with our lens shifting specifically to Ghana. What is the kind of environment that even allows for something like this to happen? We look at the role of African Traditionalism with its customs such as female genital mutilation and imposed gender roles and how these perpetuate internalized misogyny and the abandonment of young women in Africa.
