“Soapy and Side-Chicks Can Help Men Live Longer” – Nigerian Doctor Sparks Debate

Dr. Rasheed Abassi has ignited a heated online debate after stating on the Morayo Show that masturbation, referred to colloquially as "soapy," can contribute to longer life for men over 50. Citing scientific research, he argued that regular ejaculation supports overall health, particularly in preventing cardiac and prostate issues. Abassi emphasized that the human body functions best when used regularly, comparing sexual inactivity to owning a luxury car and never driving it—eventually, parts deteriorate from disuse. He listed masturbation, pornography, and having side-chicks as viable options for maintaining sexual health, especially for unmarried men.

While acknowledging religious objections, particularly from Christian teachings, Abassi maintained that medical science operates independently of faith. "There is nothing wrong with soapy for men," he stated, referencing studies that show health benefits for men over 50 who engage in occasional masturbation. When challenged on promoting behavior that contradicts moral teachings, he responded, "The scientific community is very mindful of this, That does not stop them from going away from facts." He urged individuals to weigh scientific evidence against personal beliefs when making decisions about their bodies. His full comment included: "In order for us to live long, avoid cardiac problems, avoid prostate problems, and live long enough to enjoy the children you've raised with all your hustle, my brother, find a solution. The solutions are out there. Pornography is one, having side-chick is another one and soapy too is there."
