Sex is powerful and spiritual, plays a big role in traditional rituals

In Luo culture, sex is highly encouraged before any big life-altering decision is made.

Luo elder, Omollo K’Odege explains that is required by customs to spend the first night with his wife when he builds a new home.

“From that night, no woman would ever have sex with a man in that same house. It means the house belonged to the woman. Even if the woman left, and the man married another woman, he has to build a new house for his new wife, and can’t sleep with her in his other wife’s house.
