Mobile phones for communicating with sexual partners.

Quote number Topic Quote
Quote 8 Call, text, and WhatsApp “I would say in three ways. I would call her. I would text her or would go to WhatsApp and send her an audio on WhatsApp.”
Quote 9 Meeting my partner “In most cases, I first call my sex partner to meet with her. I don’t see any other plan I would consider meeting my sex partner without a phone call. If her mobile phone number is switched off, I must wait until it is switched on.”
Quote 10 Back to school “Now for example, we shall go back at school on 4th of February, for the first two weeks we are usually not busy because they are still registering and receiving students and we are waiting for results. So, over the weekend, I have the phone it is here (she shows it to the interviewer), I call him, or he calls me and tells me that I am going to come, and I also tell him that it is fine to come since we are mature.”
Quote 11 A partner in a different community “I call her wherever she is or I can send her a message and tell her that I want you to come and see me next week. She can give me her program and tell me that I will not be able to make it. If she accepts, I send her transport and she comes then we meet. In case she comes, she spends time with me on that day and then she goes back. I give her transport then she goes back. We keep communicating over the phone.”
