We advocate for a country free of oppressive and discriminative laws against LBQGNC persons while accessing quality health services.

L.E.H.A


🔹12 years ago, the Kenyan Constitution in Artic
🔹12 years ago, the Kenyan Constitution in Article 81 (b) stated that "not more than two thirds of the members of elective or appointive bodies shall be of the same gender" And in Article 27 (8) says that the state is required to take legislative and other measures to impliment the principle that not more than two thirds of the members of elective public bodies should be of the same gender.
🦋This law was prompted by the fact that due to underrepresentation of women in position of power, a country lacks to progress, economically, politically or socially as a good chunk of its population is not actively participating in critical decision making processes.#NothingForUsWithoutUs! 
But to date this is yet to be reflected in our parliament as there is no specific legislation that operationalizes this constitutional provision on gender equality. 

As Women and girls we have the right to engage in civil society, vote, be elected to government offices and serve on boards. We need to continue investing in women's and girls right to political participation as it is a necessary step in achieving global gender equality!

DEBATE 2022(June 18th)

Motion: This house believes that the best means to protect LGBTIQ+ identifying and perceived children is through training educational practitioners.

This was part of the discussion after the debate where the audience was given a chance to discuss the motion, ask questions to the debaters and give input on how best we can tackle the issue of discrimination and stigma on LGBTIQ kids and SOGIE persons in general.

We all have that friend or we are that friend, who always makes jokes about their experiences but instead of laughing, everyone in the room is left concerned and horrified (shoutout to all Saggittarius)

Comedy can be a cathartic way of dealing with trauma but it should not be the only way. Most of the methods we use to deal with our trauma like drinking, going out with friends, sex, do nothing but make us forget about the trauma for a while, but it is always there.

Dealing with our traumas is a process, as most of them stem from our childhood. This process should involve love, tenderness, care, support and patience. Have a support system that you can fall back on when you feel like you need some assistance. Also talking to a therapist or psychologist is a healthy way of coping with our traumas.

Shoutout to everyone out there who is doing their best to show up for themselves and heal the part of themselves they cannot talk about💜

If you would like to talk to someone professionally(therapist/psychologist) do DM us.

"After an orgasm, I am also much calmer"
"When I want to sleep I masturbate"

Masturbation makes your body release "feel good" hormones that give you a temporary mood boost which can elevate your mental health. In this post we explore the different ways that masturbating can help get you out of feeling grumpy mood or feeling depressed and having you feeling good.

Tukumbuke May bado ni Masturbation month so tuendelee kuexplore and pleasure our bodies.
