Sex and the over-60s


Usually people associate sex with young people; they forget or they try to block the image of older adults having sex.  The reality is: older people have sex, we want to or not.

Life expectancy has increased in many parts of the world and this brings the sexual age increases the same way. On a less favourable view, sexually transmitted diseases like syphilis and HIV also increases among people of the elderly.

The idea of beauty is something that is closely related to this issue because often the simple image of the old bodies cannot imagine this kind of thing.
But age is actually a big plus for this activity, older adults no longer have their children in their homes, many seniors are retired, and most women do not need to worry about getting pregnant, despite this, menopause itself can become a problem for crises that can affect women through lack of libido or the need for certain special products. Despite this, there are arguments in favour of older women achieve more satisfying sexual experience.

Until now it is impossible to determine an age limit for sex like it does not exist either an age to find love.

  1. I think many time, as a society, we place limits according to what we believe is appropriate. Therefore the issue of sexuality in the elderly can in itself represent so many things that we think should be tailored to certain age.

  2. I think the fact that people don't want to imagine sex between old people, answer to a social imaginary in wich physical appearance is more asocciated with sex than love.
