Rev. John Kofi Bosomtwe of the Liberty Assemblies of God in Kumasi has advised males having sexual dysfunction to reconsider marriage unless their spouse is a virgin.
The pastor stressed the importance of sexual health in marital unity and cautioned that if the lady has prior sexual experience, problems may occur.
Rev. Bosomtwe’s sermon, which has now gone viral on social media, emphasised the necessity of a good sexual relationship in sustaining a happy and secure marriage.
If you notice that your manhood isn’t working, don’t rush into marriage. This does not imply that your inability to achieve an erection prohibits you from engaging in sexual activities. However, it is critical to seek help and learn how to handle the situation.
The Assemblies of God pastor agreed that while erectile dysfunction does not always exclude sexual engagement, it must be carefully managed, especially if the partner has prior sexual experience.
The preacher went on to say that marrying a virgin could help with any issues because she would have no prior sexual experience to compare to.
He warned, however, that a woman with a sexual history may experience discontent, which could lead to mocking or conflict in the relationship.
A virgin partner provides no risk; you are safe in such a situation. However, if the woman has had past sexual encounters, she may struggle to adjust, potentially causing friction.
Rev. Bosomtwe also emphasised the broader benefits of a fulfilling sexual relationship, stating that it promotes emotional connection and charity among spouses.
A good sex life helps to build the marriage bond. Men who have a fulfilling sexual connection tend to be more kind and generous to their wives.
The pastor’s words provoked extensive discussion on social media, with many people commenting on the confluence of sexual health, marriage, and societal expectations.
While some have appreciated his candour, others have questioned the consequences of his advice, particularly the emphasis on a woman’s sexual history.
