Description: "As women, we all have a story within us about a sexual experience that was unforgettable. Perhaps it was incredible, earth shattering, life-changing, and wonderful. Perhaps it wasn't romantic or pleasurable, but awkward, painful, or forced upon us. Many of us have kept our experiences secret because, by exposing our stories, we expose ourselves and our feelings around sex. In My First Time, southern African women have shared their stories about their significant first time experiences of sex and sexuality."--Back cover.
