I feel as if I'm going through a mid-life crisis. I don't feel very attractive and it's like I'm frigid or something. I'm aging and it makes me very sad.

I wrote about my life just as I remembered it. I named names and it's very detailed. Hundreds of Sudanese refugees and people from Africa say that my journey is very similar to theirs.

I met rich men and they became my boyfriends. When I was a kept woman'it was a relationship.

I value men and I don't necessarily want to adopt the man's role, but I do want to see women's humanity honored and respected.

Even though I couldn't speak English, there were many times that my black-American parents could read my mind and I could read theirs.

I love cooking for men and making love with them'not just reproductive lovemaking but I like sex for the sake of freaking out with men.
