Prominent Ghanaian highlife singer, Akosua Agyapong, has voiced her opinion on the topic of abstaining from s3x before marriage, suggesting that this idea should be reconsidered due to the potential problems it can create in marriages.
S3x is often regarded as a vital aspect of a healthy relationship and marriage. Some individuals adhere to the principle of “No s3x before marriage” out of a desire to lead a religious lifestyle and follow God’s commandments. On the other hand, there are those who believe in engaging in sexûal relationships before marriage, as they consider it important to fully understand their partner before committing to a lifelong union.
Akosua Agyapong has expressed that the notion of abstaining from s3x before marriage should be changed due to the issues it can bring about in marital relationships. During her appearance as a guest on Ghone’s Duvet show, she stated, “We have to change that ‘No s3x before marriage.’ They have to change it. It causes problems a lot.”
The singer went on to provide reasons to support her viewpoint. From her perspective, engaging in sexûal activity before marriage allows both partners to identify any potential issues in their sexûal lives and work together to address them. This proactive approach can help prevent future problems in the marital relationship.
Following Akosua Agyapong’s remarks, some individuals on social media disagreed with her statement, as they strongly believe in the practice of abstaining from s3x until marriage. A selection of their comments reflect their differing opinions:
“Adults without the fear of God is one of the reasons why the youth are struggling. What sense do they have to direct the younger ones coming after them?! If you’re a young person watching this nonsense, be advised and warned. S3x before marriage destroys destiny. It opens the door for Satan and his demons to steal blessings and ruin one’s life. You might be thinking that you had sex before and nothing happened. Well, Adam ate the apple, and here we are. It does something to your soul called spiritual death. So think before you act. Those people up there have lost it, and you know what they say, ‘misery loves company.'”
“God have mercy on them for they do not know what they are doing. This is something God is against, and our parents are telling us to practice it. Shame.”
“‘No s3x before marriage’ is not man’s law; it is God’s direct instruction. How can she call on us to change it? Comparing s3x, a sacred bond, to cars and houses?”
