"She Sex is an important gathering of women's voices. On one hand
the writing is a celebration of sexual fulfillment and curiosity
ranging from Atiya's poem, "Differentology," about sex with a lover
who transitions from a male to a female, and to Zahra I. Airall's
story, "Over the Hill and Through the Wood" about an older woman
finding sexual gratification for the first time. But the anthology
does not shy away from the ways that sex is used as a weapon
against women. Both Delesse Francis and Shakirah Bourne write
stories of intimacy and emotion about ways that sexual power can be
used as a primary tool to control women and seed self-doubt in
girls. I hope young women around the Caribbean get a chance to read
this book and have heated discussions about the beauty of sexual
pleasure and vulnerability of that very beauty. The collection also
does important work by introducing some writers to a wider
audience." Tiphanie Yanique, author of "How to Escape from a Leper
Colony"
