I hope I can still walk when I'm 80 let alone get jiggy... University of Chicago researchers have surveyed more than 3000 older Americans on their sex lives. The study paints one of the most complete pictures ever of the sexual activities of people between ages 57 and 85. Americans are having sex in their 60s, their 70s, even into their 80s. Researcher Linda Waite says the study provides an important benchmark to understand what normal sexuality is as people age. "The population of the U.S. and many, many other countries in the world is aging," said Waite. "Aging adults are healthier than they've ever been. And this study tells us what older adults experience and how they feel about it." "An interesting finding is that among those who were sexually active, the frequency of sexual activity, was two to three times a month or more. So what that suggests is that if one has a partner, the frequency of sexual activity doesn't change a whole lot across age groups." The researchers found that sexual activity does decline with age. Among women, for example, between ages 57 and 64, a solid majority — 62 percent — said they had had some kind of sexual activity with a partner in the past year; but among women over 75, that declined to 17 percent. Researchers note that much of that decline is related to poor health in old age or the death of a partner, not necessarily to a loss of interest.
Don't hate on old people for having sex. Don't hate the player hate the game. LOL, I hope I can still get some when I'm that old.
