Today, I want to address a subject that is often considered taboo or sensitive, especially for women: Sex. Yes, you heard me correctly. Sex. And not just any sex, but sex after Menopause.
Silva Joke appeared as a guest in the latest episode of the Africa Magic documentary series, Rabors forever, where she discussed the benefits of sex for older women. Surrounded by her peers, she debunked the popular narrative that men need younger women as they age because women are more active. Silva added that not only is the narrative false, but the reality is the opposite.

You see, there is this stereotype that also says that sexual activities become less attractive to women as they age. That women lose their libido, their desire, their passion and their pleasure as they age. This sex is something that only young and beautiful women can enjoy and deserve. That older women should just accept their fate and take a back seat, making way for the younger generation.
“Once you go through menopause, first of all, you’re more relaxed. You’re not taking anything chemical, none of that. And then you’re not taking any chemicals for pregnancy. So you say you’re comfortable not to be sexually active. You’re so much more relaxed. There are things for dryness. Lubricants for both parties,” she added.
She said: “Someone decided to say, ‘People should accept the fact that men are: one, polygamous by nature, and also the older a man gets, the more he needs a younger woman because the Older woman is not as active.’
Well, I’m here to tell you that this stereotype is not only false, but also harmful and disrespectful to women of all ages. And I have a very powerful example to prove it: the legendary Nollywood actress Silva Joke.
Silva Joke is one of the most respected and celebrated actresses in Nigeria and Africa. She has been in the industry for over 40 years, starring in countless films and television shows, winning numerous awards and accolades, and inspiring millions of fans with his talent and grace. She is also married to another Nollywood icon, Olu Jacobs. They are one of the most admired and loved couples in the world of entertainment.
But what you may not know about Joke Silva is that she is also a strong advocate for women’s rights and empowerment. She has spoken out on various issues affecting women, such as domestic violence, sexual harassment, gender equality and reproductive health. And one of the things she’s been very open about is her sex life.
Yes, you read that right. Joke Silva has been very candid about her sexual experiences and preferences as an older woman.
Joke Silva debunks the stereotype that sexual activities become less attractive for women as they age. It shows us that sex is not something that diminishes or disappears with age, but rather something that evolves and improves with time. She shows us that sex is not something that only belongs to the young and beautiful, but rather something that is universal and inclusive to all women. She shows us that sex is not something that should be shamed or silenced, but rather something that should be celebrated and embraced.
Joke Silva is not only a Nollywood legend but also a sex-positive role model for women of all ages. It gives women the means to own their sexuality, express their desires, seek their pleasure and enjoy their body. She challenges society’s norms and expectations of what it means to be a woman, especially an older woman. She breaks down barriers and stereotypes that limit and oppress women’s sexual freedom and happiness.
And I think it’s amazing.
The veteran also debunked the misconception that men are polygamous by nature and therefore should be allowed to have multiple female partners. His statements were approved by the 66 years old host Betty Irabor and the other female guests present during the Interview.
