Fashion designer Veekee James faces backlash for urging women not to deny their husbands sex, even when exhausted. Her comments at a bridal shower have triggered heated online conversations about consent and marital expectations.
- Veekee James advised women to comply with their husbands’ sexual needs, even when too tired.
- Her comments surfaced during a bridal shower speech to her sister-in-law.
- Critics say the advice ignores the importance of mutual consent in marriages.
Many women online expressed discomfort, calling the advice tone-deaf and reflective of societal pressure on women to perform sexually in marriage regardless of emotional or physical readiness. Others argued Veekee was speaking from personal experience, not prescribing norms.
