A lady’s post advising couples not to kiss or engage in any form of physical intimacy before marriage, as it is a sin, sparked diverse reactions. Among the responses, one controversial comment stood out: “As a girl wey I be I go do everything bf marriage,” meaning she intends to engage in every sexual activity before marriage. While everyone has a right to their personal beliefs, such a statement normalizes premarital sex as a casual act rather than a personal or moral decision.
It dismisses the essence of self-control and the values some people choose to uphold. More importantly, it sends a wrong message to younger audiences who might see it as empowerment when it’s actually encouraging moral recklessness. True empowerment lies in making informed and responsible choices — not in doing everything simply because one can.
