The Taboo of Casual Dating & Free Loving in African Culture

Things get juicy when Joy from Joy Talks Love and Journalist/Aspiring Men's Relationship Coach Nicholas Asingwire examine sociocultural factors that impact dating and sexual experiences of African men and women. In African culture, we are taught as people, and as a society, that we should find a suitable mate, fall in love, get married, and if you are so inclined, have children, and live happily ever after. The reality is that younger generations who are more liberated are taking different paths and following very non-traditional routes when it comes to dating in general. In this episode, we explore why is it looked down upon if someone takes a different path?
