Pangea’s Last Apache Afrosocial
The theme was called #BeTheBodyArt; one we will definitely revisit because everyone had so much fun. And while we were not sure at the time that it was the last Apache AfroSocial (we knew we were going to do something else but weren’t sure what) we knew it was the end of an era. Now its time to build new adventures in afrosensuality. Will you join us?

As recent as last year I could not stand the word “Pussy” and I did not use it. I would always use the word “Vagina”or “Yoni”; however people always told me that “Vagina” sounded too clinical and I quickly got bored with the word “Yoni”. “Yoni” is cool but...
