Taking Control in the Bedroom

Uzma Jafri
About this episode
Three Muslim moms take on the glass ceiling of sexuality, exploring taboos on Muslim women’s sexuality and addressing the truths and half truths about it. Rather than have sex happen TO them, moms deserve to experience sex as active and important recipients of sex as a God given right. Hear Zaiba and Uzma channel their inner adolescent as they learn to talk about sex, baby, just like grown ups!

Aalia truly brings on the blush by discussing sexual paraphernalia by Pure Romance that you won’t talk about at an average Muslim tea party.
