Allowing Random Men Call You “Sexy” Disrespectful, Says Nigerian Actress

High-flying Nollywood actress, Luchy Donalds is a very beautiful woman by almost any standard and this is a fact not lost on her.

She’s a woman who must be used to compliments on account of her beauty but you may as soon run afoul of her sooner that you realize as she does not take kindly to some compliments, especially from some random men.

Luchy told Potpourri in an interview that being called or described as “sexy” by a man is a form of disrespect to her.

She explains: “Compliments are supposed to be like little confidence boosters. A compliment is when someone expresses their admiration for how well we did something or how well we look.

“A kind word really does go a long way. Especially, when we are single and it comes from the opposite sex.

“But not everything that comes from the opposite sex our culture deems endearing is a compliment. Like being called “sexy!” “Sexy” in our society has become a replacement adjective for “beautiful” or “nice-looking”, but I have to be honest with you—this type of compliment to describe a woman’s beauty is totally inappropriate.

For a man to call you (a woman he isn’t married to) “sexy”, is him expressing his unrighteous lustful desires toward you and The Scriptures are clearly against being drawn away by the lusts of the flesh. As women, we are to be respected (and act) as dignified beings created by The Most High. We are to teach others how to respect us by controlling what we allow. And allowing random men to call you “sexy” is a form of disrespect.”

When asked what she cherishes about herself and looks, Luchy praises her beautiful face, body and figure, reasserting that she knows she’s beautiful.

“God Almighty has blessed me with beauty and I know that goes a long way but most important is my talent. This is paramount because with beauty and no talent, your brand as an actor will not sell. So my talent speaks for me and that sells me,” she said.

The actress said she has featured in over 200 films and that she cannot remember them all. Some of them however, include “Mr Arrogant”, “The Miss & The Mistress”, “Kong’s Wife”, “Chisom the Wife Material” , “Too Hard to Forget”, “Forgiven Heart”, “Eno my Calabar Love”, etc.
