After 30, Does Your Sexual Organs, And Other Sex Units, Decrease in Function?

[Krill]

Yeah, but all of them still incluse the "open innuendoes"

[DaShi]

You all have dirty minds, I haven't seen a single sexual post from AC.

Yep.

Also, don't forget that a good portion of my posts have no innuendo at all. Mostly stuff about law, politics, and computers.

Sexy law, sexy politics, and sexy computers

Having turned 30 recently I really hope not. No sign yet.

More over 70s 'are enjoying sex'

More over 70s 'are enjoying sex'

More couples over 70 are having sex - and finding it satisfying - than in previous generations, a British Medical Journal survey suggests.

Swedish researchers asked 1,500 older people across a 30-year period about their sex lives.

The number of people saying they had sex increased - as did the number of women reporting having orgasms.

A UK expert said the older people of today grew up in more sexually liberated eras.

We still have this stereotype of elderly people with their bath chairs and canes, staggering around, who couldn't possibly be having sex - but that isn't the case

Although there are plenty of studies about sexual "problems" associated with old age, there is relatively little research about "normal" sexual behaviour later in life.

The scientists from the University of Gothenburg in Sweden interviewed 70-year-olds in 1971-2, 1976-7, 1992-3 and 2000-2001.

They found that the number of 70-year-olds reporting sexual intercourse rose in men and women, married and unmarried.

More than two-thirds - 68% - of married men in the most recent survey said they had sex, an increase from 52%, while the percentage of married women having sex rose from 38% to 56%.

The number of men reporting physical problems, such as erectile dysfunction or ejaculation dysfunction increased.

The number of women who said they were highly satisfied with their sex lives rose too.

When sexual intercourse stopped, both men and women tended to blame men, in line with the findings from earlier surveys.

Professor Peggy Kleinplatz, from the University of Ottawa, said that doctors should now be trained to ask all patients - regardless of their age - about any sexual concerns.

She said: "Sex is an important and positive part of the lives of their 70-year-old participants, and more so for the current cohort of men and women than for their predecessors in 1971."

Sexual stereotype

Dr Petra Boynton, a specialist in the psychology of sex and relationships at University College London, said it was important to remember that someone turning 70 in the year 2000 would have been influenced by the more free sexual attitudes of the 1960s and 1970s - and also perhaps fitter and healthier than those in their 70s in previous decades.

She said: "We still have this stereotype of elderly people with their bath chairs and canes, staggering around, who couldn't possibly be having sex - but that isn't the case."

She pointed out that the study did not record the frequency of sex for any of those surveyed, simply whether they were having sex at all, and focused on penetrative sex, rather than other types of sex which might be favoured by older people.

"I am slightly concerned that this will be interpreted in a way that suggests that if you're not having sex in your 70s, you are doing something wrong.

"There are still plenty of people who choose not to have sex."

Meanwhile, a report by Finnish researchers says older men who have more sex will experience fewer erection problems.

A five-year study, published in the American Journal of Medicine, of 989 men aged 55-75 in Pirkanmaa, Finland, showed that having sexual intercourse less than once per week doubled the risk of erectile dysfunction, compared to having sex once per week.

After 30, Does Your Sexual Organs, And Other Sex Units, Decrease in Function?

Is it really strictly necessary to do 30 in order to answer that.

[Theben]

I'm sure sleepy appreciates your resurrection of this thread on his special day.

No, they still serve the same function.

Functionality, however, is a different story.

ACK!

Yes my question was asked and answer thanks, but but I am worried about these women and their biological clocks and might as well post about it here. My question is whether the term biological clock arose because women feel a literal tingly sensation (like shin splints) when they don't have sex for a while and are getting old. This is not to be confused with horniess because they're old. Can anyone confirm if biological clock ticking means literal sensation or figurative, psychological mentality cooked up in a textbook?

[Theben]

yes,

[Wiglaf]

YOU ARE BEYOND USELESS, LIKE MY PHYSICS TEACHER WHO WOULD ANSWER 'EITHER OR ' QUESTIONS BY SMUGLY SAYING 'YES' AND THEN ASKING THE NEAREST HOT GUY TO SUCK HIM OFF WHILE HE READ FROM THE BOOK VERBATIM, LITERALLY ALL THE MEN SAW THIS AND KNEW WHAT WAS GOING ON, EVEN A VIDEO WAS TAKEN, AND HE STILL TEACHES, HE STILL, HE STILL TEACHES.

[Winston]

Just make sure it goes off once a day and there's no reason to worry about the biological clock ticking.

[Wiglaf]

Are you Nostradamus? Should I spend a year decoding that?

[Winston]

It bloody works, Wiglaf, and you know it.
