Gospel singer Selina Boateng recently discussed the health benefits of sex during an interview with Taller Dee on the Journey to Heaven show on No.1 FM, 105.3.
Boateng described sex as a form of medicine, noting that it can have physiological benefits.
She shared that doctors sometimes inquire about sexual activity when diagnosing illnesses, emphasizing that sex can release hormones that alleviate headaches and depression.
“Sex is medicinal. It’s medicine,” she said.
To buttress, she added: “Sometimes when you report sick to the hospital, the doctor asks if you’ve had sex. Yes, I’ve been asked that before.”
The sexual activity releases “hormones,” Selina noted. “The feelings you get from sex, there’s medicine in it.”
Sexual acts like “smooching,” she said, can take away various forms of “headaches and depression”.
“If you’re married, you have every right to use sex,” she said, admonishing, however, “If you’re not married, it is immoral to do it. It is not against the Bible when you’re married.”
Selina Boateng encouraged spouses “to freely give sex” to their partners “no matter where they find themselves”.
However, “don’t do it in public in the full glare of others for whatever reason,” she said, urging respect for public decency laws.
She highlighted that sexual activities, including simple acts like kissing, can be therapeutic and help in relaxation, attributing this to the biological processes designed by God.
Boateng stressed that sex is an integral part of human experience and should be enjoyed within marriage.
She encouraged married couples to embrace their sexual relationship fully while respecting public decency laws and maintaining privacy.
The singer also mentioned that she has personally found sex to be a way to unwind after performances, as long as the opportunity arises.
