For crying out loud, what would you expect? Every other commercial on the TV is for a sexual enhancer like Via-gro or See-Alice. We also have to endure the ads for heightened female pleasure. The americans are lined up at the Mexican drug counters buying Viagra. So you see the ads work to stimulate the appetite and the appetite stimulates urges, so we end up with half the old geezers in america walking around with 4 hour erections.
The big benefactor? The pharmacuetical companies.

I have to admit, I found the article absolutely hilarious!  How old was the person that wrote this?  I could only read so much before I almost died of laughter.  Oh, I’m sorry, did anyone really think “seniors” don’t like or have sex?  Maybe they should’ve worked as a nurse’s aid….oh, excuse me, now they’re CNA’s, totally certified to give “seniors” a bath.  Which by the way some enjoy WAY TOO MUCH, at least that’s what I hear.  As for “educating” young people…...I really don’t think they want to “go there”.  Frankly, I agree.  I have young adult children and…..well, you see…...I guess I just prefer to “rake their signifigant others over the coals” for their integrity and ........well…...I really don’t have a whole lot of concern otherwise.  I mean these things speak for themselves.  I see the feeling is mutual.  Enjoy

Guess that means up to 40% of the old women have more than one partner

A couple of days ago, the Globe and Mail in Toronto had an online question related to the “Sex for Wrinklies” article. They asked, “Do you expect to have an active sex life when you’re in your 70’s and 80’s?”.

The results were:
Yes - approx 30%
No - approx 30%
I don’t have an active sex life now - approx. 37%.

All I know is, there aren’t any of those women around Canton TX. ...dammit anyhow…
Read an article last year about the Nursing Homes in AZ having a problem with residents sneaking off to get some. Quoted Viagra as being the root of the problem.
Why is old folks wanting to enjoy sex a problem? I know Republican’s are dead set against it…which explains why they are always getting their tallywhacker caught somewhere it shouldn’t be, I reckon.

Oh, ask that woman in Washington, AR. She has the list…...

But, seriously, the survey found a close link between sex and health. Yes, the hormones are what we all are motivated by and in many subtle and not-so-subtle ways. This applies throughout life from puberty. Its not the amount of sex of any kind but the stimulation which is energising. That has a significance apart from actual orgasms which tend to use and deplete energy.

Of course, another issue is that many people are so relationship-dependent that they need to have a partner in order to have any reason for living. That is something which is basically psychological. People need to mix with each other but so many are isolated as they grow older. That happens to many even in their 40’s and 50’s.

What is extraordinarily important and which we need to pay more attention to, though, is the way we teach children and young adults to respect themselves as they are allowed instead to become the victims of irresponsible sex, porn, bars, and a host of exploitative commercial imperatives which society needs less of.
