Controversial Nollywood actress Kudirat Ogunro has set social media ablaze with her provocative claim that women who abstain from s3x lose their beauty. In a now-viral post made on Thursday, June 19, 2025, the outspoken actress advised women to “adjust,” insisting that their glow and appearance depend largely on their s3xual activity.
The actress, known for her blunt personality, didn’t mince words: “Lack of s3x reduces a woman’s beauty. Please adjust. I’ve said my own.” Her comment triggered a firestorm of debates across X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, and Instagram, with users dissecting the psychological, cultural, and biological implications of her claim.
While a segment of netizens supported Ogunro’s assertion, suggesting that a healthy s3x life can enhance mood, boost self-esteem, and release endorphins that contribute to physical radiance, others accused her of promoting reductive and misogynistic narratives. Critics argue that linking a woman’s physical appearance solely to s3x perpetuates harmful stereotypes and undermines the diverse sources of confidence and beauty.
Health experts, however, say there’s some truth to the physiological effects of s3x. Studies from institutions like Harvard Medical School and Mayo Clinic suggest that regular s3x may help reduce stress, improve skin by increasing blood circulation, and even support hormonal balance. Still, experts caution against oversimplifying beauty as a product of bedroom activity alone.
Ogunro’s post has also reignited discussions on female agency, body autonomy, and societal expectations around beauty. Feminist voices called the statement tone-deaf and accused the actress of reinforcing the notion that women’s worth or appearance must be validated through intimacy — often male-centered.
This is not the first time Ogunro has stirred controversy. In 2023, she faced backlash for stating that a woman’s happiness is tied to her man’s financial generosity. With this new claim, she once again positions herself at the center of Nigeria’s ongoing cultural war on gender, s3x, and perception.
As debates continue to rage, one thing remains clear: Kudirat Ogunro’s comments have forced a national conversation about beauty standards, intimacy, and the limits of celebrity influence in shaping narratives that affect how women see themselves.
