Kunyaza - sexual term from Rwanda

A BBC radio programme has just introduced me to the above term. The programme was about sexual pleasure. As l understand it, the term means to give a woman pleasure by making her 'squirt'. How about that?!

The two young women hosting the programme - which they warned the listener would be a bit unorthodox (for the BBC) - fell down in one respect. They used the term on radio without spelling it. It took me a few minutes of googling to find it. Anyway, there's plenty up there ...

They also mentioned that the clitoris has 8,000 nerve endings. Impressive, huh?

The 8000 number has been floating around the internet for years.

Anyway guys, add the term 'kunyaza' to your lexicon - and practise it often. (No, l don't mean practise saying it!)

Refers to:

"In May 2020, the BBC World Service broadcast The Orgasm Gap, as part of its Life Changes season. The two female reporters, named only as Lily and Kay, explore the omission of sexual pleasure from sex education in the UK, and travel to Rwanda to find out about Kunyaza, as a practise which focusses on female sexual pleasure, leading the woman to orgasm, and to ‘squirt’, what is referred to as ‘sacred water’. There they interviewed the sexologist Vestine Dusabe, but were concerned to discover that labia elongation was an associated cultural practise."

Here is that episode:
