Older People Enjoying Sex
People Over 70 Are Enjoying More Sex Than Ever
If you think that sexual desire diminishes with age, you are wrong, for a new study has found that couples over 70s are having more sex than ever. People in their 70’s are happy with their sex life.
“The study shows that most older people consider sexual activity and associated feelings to be a natural part of later life, “according to the lead researcher Nils Beckman of University of Gothenburg in Sweden.
For their study, the researchers surveyed over1500 septuagenarians who were asked about their sex lives including their sexual activity, marital satisfaction as well as sexual dysfunction over 30 years from 1971 to 2001.
They found that the number of men and women continuing to have sexual intercourses into the old age has increased in both sexes. Among married men, it rose from 52 to 68% and among married women from 38 to 56%. The unmarried also enjoys more sex, rising from 34 to 54 % among men. Unmarried women over 70 saw the biggest rise in sexual activity – more than tenfold - from 0.8 to 12%, the Independent reported.
Substantial proportions repot having sex once a week or more, 31% of sexually active men and 26% of women.
However female sexual satisfaction has increased more than the satisfaction among men..
Interestingly not only women, also men blame themselves when sexual intercourse stops between them. Though men are performing better thanks to anti-impotence drugs, like generic Viagra, generic Cialis, generic Levitra, Kamagra, etc. with them and use them prior to the sexual interaction as per the doctor’s suggestion. These drugs give a stiff erection for a good amount of time and also get extra energy. These drugs allow more blood flow to the penis. As more blood flow into it and less flows out, the arteries in the penis enlarge which results in an erection.
They are enjoying themselves less, the study found.
