  • Finnish Riitta and Ugandan Catherine have something in common; work, a shared home and a sense of humor. Riitta has been working in Uganda for more than 25 years, and soon it is time for her to retire and to return to Finland. Before that, Riitta and Catherine will invite religious leaders to a course in which they challenge the priests and the imams to a straightforward, taboo breaking discussion on women’s right to their bodies and lives.

    This story touched my heart on so many levels! I love Ritta, "Kata," and Daizy for their courage and determination! How is Ritta now? I'm so proud of Kata and Daizy and everyone working with them to educate families !

    Wow, I didn't expect to watch the entire thing but I found myself not able to turn it off. What a great story. I wonder what happened with Ritta. Is she still in Finland? Has she ever gone back to visit Kara? You 2 parting ways must have been incredibly hard, do you keep in touch? Would be interested to know if there was any kind of follow up to this. Well done ladies! Very inspiring!

    Someone can make an allegation, which then makes them spend time, energy, and focus on a distraction. So sad.

    Wow I am actually jealous lol. Please any men that are watching give your opinions. I am a Canadian woman that has 4 children and 1 grandchild and unfortunately even though sex is not the most natural thing as it’s how we are made, I have never been comfortable with my own sexuality. I feel dirty and ashamed to enjoy sex and to ask for the the sexual acts that I like. Luckily I haven’t passed this on to my own children. Of course I am sure it is mostly because I was sexually abused but I have always been embarrassed of my genitalia and having a period as I have always assumed that guys are disgusted by me. TMI?
