Actor Baaj Adebule Reveals Emotional Toll Of ‘Disvirgining’ A Lady
Nollywood actor Baaj Adebule recently opened up about his perspective on marrying a virgin, describing the experience of initiating physical intimacy as “traumatic” for men.
Speaking on Pulse Hot Takes, Adebule shed light on the emotional toll that the ‘disvirgining’ process can have on a man.
Adebule expressed his reluctance to marry a virgin, stating, “I don’t want to marry a virgin because, first, obviously, you will have to do the ‘disvirgining,’ which is something I’ve been through before and it is quite traumatic.”
He urged a shift in perspective, emphasising the need to consider both the woman’s and man’s experiences in discussions about virginity.
The actor continued, “When people think about it, they only think about the lady, obviously because she’s the one that has to go through it. But nobody thinks about the guy and what he goes through to do it. It is a very terrible experience for a guy.”
Highlighting the importance of acknowledging the emotional and psychological impact on men in such situations, Adebule called for a more balanced dialogue on the subject. Despite his reservations about marrying a virgin, he acknowledged the significance of personal choices and the discipline required to maintain virginity.
“I think being a virgin is something you can be proud of, as is the case of a person who works out and looks pretty good. She should be proud of that. So if it’s not something that is easy to achieve and takes discipline, then it’s something to be proud of,” Adebule concluded.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has granted bail to the controversial cross-dresser, Idris Okuneye, popularly known as Bobrisky.
Bobrisky was intercepted and taken off an Amsterdam-bound KLM flight at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos on Thursday night while trying to depart for London, United Kingdom.
The cross-dresser promptly informed his followers on social media about the incident, claiming he sustained injuries during the arrest.

Bobrisky wrote, “Nigerians, help me, EFCC just arrested me. I’m badly injured.”
He was subsequently flown to the headquarters of the EFCC in Abuja, where he was interrogated on his bribery allegations against the commission.
In a voice note shared by a controversial social critic, Martins Otse, aka VeryDarkMan, Bobrisky allegedly said he bribed EFCC officers with N15m to drop money laundering charges against him.
BIZTELLERS gathered that Bobrisky perfected his bail late Friday night and was subsequently released.
The EFCC’s spokesperson, Dele Oyewale confirmed Bobrisky’s release on Saturday but declined further comments.
However, a source familiar with the matter said the cross-dresser denied bribing the EFCC in his confessional statement made at the commission’s headquarters.
The source added that the cross-dresser challenged the person who posted the voice note to defend it.
“He denied everything about releasing money to any official as a bribe to drop the money laundering charges against him. He denied it in his statement. He said the fellow who posted the voice note should come over to justify it. He said nobody requested money from him in the EFCC and he didn’t give anyone anything”, said the source.
