No one has ever been truthful about his/her sex life. It’s all hypes, lies and self praise. O yea, sex!!! What you dread to hear discussed, but you are such an addict. I mean we are all having sex, aren’t we? 
It’s a sexual world. Sex is the most sellable commodity in the world right now. The biggest industry is the porn hub. Sells much more than Garri and my beloved Afang soup. We post nice write ups on our social media timelines, but we’re so “sexting” in our inbox. We’re all craving for sex partners, flings and hits. 
Interestingly, no one is being truthful about their sex escapades. There is this exaggeration and self pride that comes with sexual talks. Guys will hype themselves that they could go 3 straight hours without ‘cuming’ (bros na wood you knack?). 
Some will tell you how the lady was so screaming he had to pity and let her be. The ladies will lie how painful sex is and that it hurts. Some will say they hate sex, and all that(if e d pain, wetin make you still d do am? Na by force?) But aunty is never satisfied even if you be snoop and keeps multiple partners. 

These lies has led a lot of young people into taking sex-enhancing pills and hard drugs so they can also last for three hours and get a lady cry. The Tramadols, man powers and what have you are easily bought in every drug store. These drugs are damaging and weakens cells in the body. Truth be told, no man last three hours o. Its a fat lie from the pit of hell. Even porn tapes are cut and join nii. Its not a straight knacking. 
I want to talk to my contemporaries. This sex is not a competition. If you are a two minutes man, Bros is not your fault. More so, sex is a mind affair than a physical combat. If you eat well, have good sleep and a mastery of your mind, you will have amazing sex. I am of the personal view that we shouldn’t have sex for “fuck” sake, I for one prefer love making. Just know today that no one has ever told you the truth about his/her sex life. It’s all lies and hypes. Be yourself, don’t go and kill your self by your self. 
My name is beatitudes. I am a realist.
