While sex is highly regarded as an important ingredient for the survival of marriage, gospel singer, Philipa Baafi believes that sex does not play a major role in the success of marriage.

In a recent interview on Capecoast-based Property FM, the award-winning singer noted that other things such as decision-making and having an understanding spouse are the secret to marital success and longevity, not sex.

“Most often, I say that sex plays just a minimal role because after you get married, you become like siblings to each other. The Bible says can two walk together except they agree and so how can I journey on in life if my husband doesn’t share similar ideas with me it’ll be difficult,” she stated.

According to Philipa Baafi, she married her husband because he shared in her life vision and things would have turned out differently for them if they didn’t understand themselves.

“During courtship, I realised that my husband understood my vision because if it wasn’t so like things will be very difficult and so I made him aware of what I wanted to do."

“So the most important thing is decision making and so you have to get someone you both understand each other which is a very important aspect. Though the beauty of the person counts and the other things you want to consider but they’re secondary but understanding each other is primary,” Philipa Baafi stated.

Philipa Baafi was inducted into the Medical and Dental Council as Physician Assistant on Thursday, August 3.
