Dear Bunmi, My husband and I have been married for 12 years and have children. Recently, he’s become more and more obsessed with sex – he wants it all of the time and I’ve just found out he sometimes spikes my drink to make me hornier in bed. I still love him, but what can I […]

Excessive hair growth embarrasses me!

Excessive hair growth embarrasses me!

For quite a while now I’ve got what looks like a dark moustache on my upper lip and, recently, I’ve started to sprout hairs on the chin and my chest.

Hubby redefines adultery

Dear Bunmi, Is it adultery if a married man goes out once a week with a woman who is also married? My husband swears no love-making is involved and that he and his secretary are just ‘good friends’.

Could hubby use Viagra at 75?

Dear Bunmi, I used to enjoy sex with my husband of almost 50 years, until recently when he has trouble getting an erection. Sex before then used to be maybe once a month and it brought us enough satisfaction. Do you think Viagra could give our sex life a boost?  He’s now 75 years old. Mariam, […]
