Ghanaian gospel artist Selina Boateng has spoken out about the physiological benefits of sex, describing it as a form of medicine for both the body and mind. In an interview with Taller Dee on No.1 FM's Journey to Heaven program, the singer highlighted the positive effects of sexual intimacy, particularly within marriage."Sex is medicinal.
It's medicine," Selina stated, adding that doctors often inquire about sexual activity during health check-ups. "Sometimes when you report being sick to the hospital, the doctor asks if you've had sex.
Yes, I've been asked that before." The 'Alpha and Omega' hitmaker further detailed that sexual activity releases hormones that promote well-being.
According to her intimate acts like "smooching" can help relieve stress-related issues such as headaches and depression. "It can relax your mind in such a beautiful way.
It is part of the biological process.
God made it so," she noted.The gospel music star stressed on the fact that sex is a vital aspect of human life that should not be overlooked. "Sex is indispensable and cannot be taken out of the human experience," she said, advocating for its importance in marriage.
She was, however, clear about her stance on premarital sex, stating that it is immoral and against biblical teachings. "If you're married, you have every right to use sex… If you're not married, it is immoral to do it.
It is not against the Bible when you're married," she stressed.
While encouraging married couples to freely share intimacy, Selina advised against public displays of sexual acts, citing respect for public decency.
She also revealed that, when possible, she uses sex to relax after performances. "Don't do it in public in the full glare of others for whatever reason," she cautioned.
