In these tough economic times, Kenyans are going extra miles to moonlight and put an extra coin in their pockets. With their entrepreneurial spirit, which was even acknowledged by outgoing US president Barack Obama during a recent Global Entrepreneurship Summit in Nairobi, anything goes, so long as it’s legal and income generating.
Just the other day, crazy members of a popular, wild Facebook group where city women congregate to gossip and discuss matters below the belt, their sexual cravings, fetishes and frustrations, were advising each other on the remedies they use to ‘tighten’ and keep their ‘pits of pleasure’ odourless and generally spice up intimacy.
To the shock of many, some members revealed that they use cows’ saliva and rabbits’ urine, strepsils, among many other odd things, for the aforementioned purposes, opening a lengthy debate that went viral on social media. It is, however, the speed and zeal with which some entrepreneurial Kenyans jumped on the idea and began selling rabbit urine!
A closer scrutiny on social media and particularly OLX, a popular free online classifieds platform where users advertise ‘used goods’ and even sell services, revealed that many locals are now selling rabbit urine for approximately Sh100 a litre to such women.
According to one seller, the waste, if the list he posted is anything to go by, is not only good for helping women tighten their ‘pits of pleasure’, it is a sure-fire to help men boost their immune system, fire up their libido and make the aging ones more virile.

One is, however, left wondering, why rabbit pee? Why not urine from any other rodent or mammal? Well, the little available literature shows scientists have proved rabbit urine is good fertilizer that can be used to enhance crop nourishment.
However, there is no literature or scientific proof available on whether or not rabbit pee has medicinal properties that can help ‘tighten’ the muscles of a woman’s ‘pit of pleasure’ or to boost and fire up a man’s libido.
But just like sell and use of quail eggs threw Kenyans into a frenzy a while back over its suspected medicinal properties for various ailments, especially on matters below the belt, rabbit urine is now taking Kenyans by storm. And, seemingly, we are yet to see the worst!
