You must have heard of the stories of students in some universities in Accra, Koforidua and Kumasi filming themselves whiles engaged in one sexual activity or another.Such cases have become quite common in recent times because of the advent of mobile phones fitted with video cameras. And it’s not only in Ghana alone.A few days ago, a top management staff of a leading telecommunication company in Uganda was fired after pictures – taken with his mobile phone – were circulated showing him having sex with a subordinate.These cases raise a number of questions and one of the most intriguing ones is: Why will anyone film themselves whiles engaged in an activity as intimate as sex?Joy News’ reporter Steven Anti posed this question to Rwo Quest (not real name), someone who has been regularly filming his sexual activities and he had this to say:“I and my girlfriend sometimes watch Adult movies together but after a while she began feeling bad about it that she’d always come to the room and catch me so she wants us to find an alternative.“I’ll have to confess that my performance varies with days and there are times when I have been extremely impressive and I have wondered to myself on a number of days to keep those on record,” he said.Quest said he is sometimes drive to “capture marvellous moments,” of his sex life.But an increasing number of people who have filmed themselves during sex have fallen into serious trouble.Recently two female university students were seriously embarrassed when raunchy videos they had allowed their boyfriends to take were widely circulated.Despite these reports, it seems there are a good number of people who would not want to live the fantasy of having themselves filmed whiles having sex.“I think it is a sickening spirit and I think it is not needed in our community."“I think it is not something to be exposed to the public because the moment you take an image it is possible that somebody can get access to it.”“Your private part is only meant for your husband.”Those were the reactions of some persons Joy News caught up with in the streets of Accra.But is it right to film a sexual activity? Can we say it’s all in good fun or it’s a sickening endeavour which must not be encouraged.An Accra-based clinical psychologist, Aku Hayfron says “I wouldn’t advocate for such a thing to happen unless of course it is for some therapeutic reasons.”This is a Joy FM feature by Steve Anti and Francisca ForsonFiifi Koomson contributed scripting.
