My name is Hodan Kader-Hussein, and I'm a young Somali-American Muslim woman living in the City of Boston, Massachusetts. I work in real estate, after graduating from Northeastern University with my bachelor's degree in the field of business administration, and my husband Yasser Hussein works for the MBTA as a supervisor for their mechanical engineering division. Like a lot of couples, we've reached a bit of an impasse in our sexual and romantic life. That's why we've decided to try new things.
My marriage is important to me, I want to make that perfectly clear. My hubby Yasser Hussein and I recently got ourselves a condo in Boston's pricy Back Bay Area, and we are hoping to start a family soon. The way I figure it, a couple's sex life is something to be managed with special care, not unlike a business. Believe me when I tell you that I take my marriage and my sex life seriously.
Like very few women in today's world, I believe in mating for life. I don't commit easily but when I do commit, I'm dangerously committed. You see, when I chose Yasser Hussein to be my lawfully wedded husband, I took those vows seriously. Nothing under Jannah will ever come between us, this I swear. To save my sex life and my marriage, I'm rolling my sleeves and getting to work...the wickedly fun way.
Last week, I turned the tables on my hubby Yasser, going against fourteen centuries of Islamic cultural traditional and gender norms by dominating my husband in the bedroom. What do I mean by that, ladies and gentlemen? Please allow me to explain. In our Islamic faith, women are supposed to be submissive and men are supposed to be dominant. That's the norm. Well, Yasser and I found it wickedly fun to flip the script, let me tell you that much.
