Can same-sex marriage be considered an African practice? Women Marrying Women in Northern Ghana dares to explore this complex question from a uniquely Ghanaian perspective. Dr. Eva Mmah Agana investigates the little-known but culturally significant practice of woman-to-woman marriage among the Frafra people of Ghana’s Upper East Region—offering deep insight into its social, cultural, and non-sexual contexts.
This groundbreaking book contributes powerfully to ongoing conversations around identity, sexuality, and culture by:
✨ Unpacking traditional gender roles and marital systems
✨ Differentiating between same-sex unions and sexual orientation
✨ Exploring why Ghana maintains such strong resistance to Western notions of homosexuality
✨ Reframing what is often misunderstood as “homosexual” in African traditions
With scholarly depth and cultural sensitivity, this work challenges conventional narratives and offers fresh understanding rooted in African anthropology and sociology.
