In the olden days young people in the Ndebele communities of Zimbabwe observed a standard safe sex practice known as ukuhlobonga/ukuphelela emathangazini (intercrural sex/coitus interfemoris/ thigh sex/thigh job).
However, if it happened that they went beyond the thighs and the girl got pregnant, there were certain steps that had to be taken to report the pregnancy to the young man’s family, ukubika isisu. The girl informed her aunt or elder sister who in turn informed her parents. https://cite.org.zw/reporting-a-pregnancy-the-zimbabwean-ndebele-customary-way/.
