"We often go to relationships thinking that we’re going to become one with the other person, but that is just not a good idea. People don’t become one, people become themselves, and so part of the work is to understand that the other person is also evolving into themselves, just as you are also evolving into yourself, and that evolution is very often not the same."

"I have carved out a life in which I haven’t given birth but I have people whom I have mothered and continue to mother. I have people who view me as a mother figure and I see them as my children."

"African culture says women should not be sexually forward, but men love sexually forward women. The difference is that while they would date such a woman, they wouldn’t marry her, and so there is a difference because they don’t respect you. As a sexually liberated woman I am more than my vagina and I have found it hard to meet African men who view me as such."
