Men worldwide are naturally polygamous. That is why men cheat. Because our sexual appetite is more robust than that of women. Monogamy is a relatively recent concept in man’s evolution, and our bodies have not caught up with it, which is why prostate cancer is higher in countries where monogamy is the norm and lowest in nations where polygamy is prevalent......See Full Story>>.....See Full Story>>
Please fact-check me: The Middle East and North Africa, also known as the MENA Region, has the lowest prostate cancer rates on Earth. They also have lower measures of prostate-specific antigen than Black or White males.
The risk of developing prostate cancer is 27% for Black males, 12% for White males, and 7% for Asian males in the MENA Region. Please assume I am lying and fact-check me.
And it is not just the MENA region. When you look at the prevalence of prostate cancer by geographical zones, everywhere Islam is strong, prostate cancer is weak. This includes Asia, North Africa, and the Indian subcontinent. Of course, you should know that Islam goes hand in hand with polygamy.
Now, notice I said polygamy. I did not say promiscuity. Men like Balthazar Ebanga, who have multiple sexual partners that they are not married to, are likely to have even higher rates of prostate cancer than monogamous men, because of the linkages of STIs with prostate cancer. The reason is because they sleep with women who are themselves promiscuous.
What I am saying, and which is supported by research, is that polygamous men who marry women who are faithful to them in the polygamous relationship are less likely to have prostate cancer than monogamous men. This is because, as research has established, men who ejaculate regularly tend to have a significantly lower risk of prostate cancer.
Again, please fact-check me.
But there are things you can still do even within the bounds of monogamy to reduce your prostate cancer risks and improve your personal enjoyment.
If you are a man with a healthy libido, it is risky to marry a woman who is of the same age as you. It is also risky, but less so, to marry a woman who is just a few years younger than you. However, it will be absolutely disastrous to marry a lady that is older than you. You say you are in love? Listen, love cannot control your libido.
You, as a man, will retain your libido into your eighties and possibly nineties if God spares your life. But women do not retain theirs that long. I do not think it is fair. But gender libido imbalance is a fact of life and I deal in facts, not emotions.
So, if you marry a woman who is your age mate or older than you, and she loses her libido after menopause, but you retain yours, what are you going to do? Start disturbing Unilag girls? That is why there should be a healthy age gap between husband and wife for a viable marriage.
And listen, do not let any pastor or church tell you God is against polygamy. Almost all the major prophets of Scripture were polygamous, yet they had excellent relationships with God, including David, who had eight wives and still managed to be a ‘Man after God’s Heart’.
They will tell you that it is the Old Testament. Please fact-check me: The term Old Testament was invented two hundred years after Yeshua (Jesus) left this world. God did not divide His word into the Old and New Testaments. Men, like you and I, did that.
God does not hate polygamy. It is extramarital and premarital relations that He hates.
