SEX ? ~ well, its like this ... if you find someone you want to get it on with you are lucky!

What has age got to do with sex? I have a high sex drive and have had an active sex life for the best part. For me i couldn;t imagine being in a relationship without it. I have had couple of partners that have had problems erections etc, but we still managed to have a fulfilling sex life

Well said. As far as sex goes I tell people I maybe old but Im not dead. I love sex as much at 51 as I did at 21. I will say I prefer to be in a committed relationship. Dont like it when men just think because they bought you dinner and or a movie you "owe" them sex.

Personally. I love sex . Think its a natural thing between 2 or more people

Well said, and I think it applies to under 50's too! From a woman's perspective, as I cannot speak for men - even though I read through some answers and it seems that it works for both sexes I guess it is personal, perhaps age related? and what your (in general) expectations are, but without a good connection and some type of trust/relationship it is purely mechanical, meaningless and stale!

I guess I still need training. I was going to say I agree with Sharon. I think age is irrelevant.

I know love and lust don't always keep the same company.

Desperate is not a sexual preference.

But seduction isn't making someone do what they don'��t want to do.
Seduction is enticing someone into doing what they secretly want to do already.

The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions.

Wisdom doesn't automatically come with old age. Nothing does - except wrinkles. It's true, some wines improve with age. But only if the grapes were good in the first place.

Personally i think if you have a problem with having sex it should be in your introductions!! I've made it 58 years in life (medication free) and believe i'm one of "the lucky ones" in doing this! I wish everyone that is on medication could do without at our age or any age!! But shouldn't we all be honest with one-n-other in starting a relationship? Didn't we all have that problem with LYERS when we were younger?
(Oh- by the way, i need my viagra first- my womb dropped,and it hurts-etc.) in the first week this should be known that its medically impossible!! But then again "once a lyre" may go to the grave "with a lyre"!! None of us are Children anymore,And shouldn't act like it!! "I've lived a good life,i will die a good death, with or without you!!"

Yes
To me sex is still very important. Gotta have it lol

you get the sex before you died we all need it

Sex is very enjoyable with the right person at my age I still want it. But Im not gonna bang the first guy that comes along either.

Sex and Seniors: The 70-Year Itch
By Loren Stein, M.A.
Summarized by me;
Sexual intimacy among older Americans is a subject that people don't talk about much. The silence, say experts, allows misconceptions to flourish -- including the widespread assumption that seniors lose interest in sex and are, or should be, asexual.
But armed with a spate of studies that help dispel the myth that older people don't have sex or enjoy it, experts say the negative stereotypes couldn't be farther from the truth.
"There is no age limit on sexuality and sexual activity," reports Stephanie A. Sanders, PhD, associate director of the sexual research group The Kinsey Institute. While the frequency or ability to perform sexually will generally decline modestly as seniors experience the normal physiological changes that accompany aging, reports show that the majority of men and women between the ages of 50 and 80 are still enthusiastic about sex and intimacy.
An expert says "If you stay interested, stay healthy, stay off medications, and have a good mate, then you can have good sex all the way to the end of life,". A Duke University study shows that some 20 percent of people over 65 have sex lives that are better than ever before, he adds.
And although not everyone wants or needs an active sex life, many people continue to be sexual all their lives. "There's strong data all over: It's a matter of survival," says Dr. Bortz. "People that have sex live longer. Married people live longer. People need people. The more intimate the connection, the more powerful the effects."
But older people may encounter an obstacle they hadn't expected: their adult children, who may be less than pleased to see their aging parents as sexual beings. Such judgmental attitudes prevent many older people from moving in with each other or even having their partner over, according to Dr. Jack Parlow, a retired clinical psychologist in Toronto.

PD: I so agree with you.

The only thing I would change is, sex is "only" enjoyable with the right person at "any" age...
