And it’s always been only one part of a healthy relationship.

Why?

When I look at most 70 year olds, I cannot picture them being so interested in knocking boots. I’m sure there are exceptions, but I would imagine the average individual over 70 is not super interested in getting laid 3x+ weekly.

I very well could be wrong here too; I’ve only just turned 30 so my experience is precisely 0.

I don’t find that guy sexually appealing. He’s out of my target age range. That said, as I get older I definitely find older men attractive - very much so. Meanwhile, young men look child-like to me. Too soft, too smooth - and I’m talking about fully adult men here.

I like men my age-ish, so it changes as I do. In a few years I’m sure Mr. Sisson would be very appealing (assuming he stopped aging to wait for me).

I don’t love that I’m unable to bring my young body to bed with my husband, but all (physical) indications are that he finds me attractive still. I’m working hard to resist the urge to hide my flaws and trust that he feels as I do, which is that I’m lucky to have someone as altogether fantastic as he is, in all the arenas of our shared lives. I honestly don’t care about the changes in him that have come with age.

There are definitely exceptions, and I’ve been exposed to enough of them (through work, friends) to believe that they’re not rare. I actually think retirement allows for more sexy time, since time is abundant and fatigue is reduced.

I did read a survey saying something like married couples in their 60’s have more sex than those in their 40’s and 50’s, or something to that nature. (I’m probably butchering numbers here)

I am speaking in generalities though. Most couples, under say 60, are busy with work and family. Outside of 60? You likely don’t have any kids living in your house and likely don’t have to work. It does lend itself to getting busy more often, which is pretty awesome tbh.

There are definitely upsides to aging. And I say that in complete earnestness.

You know who he is, so…

And it wasn’t about being a handsome man, but the whole rebel thing.

One more thing, you seem to have some grudge against me, I don’t know why, but I suggest you let it go. You lack the wit and intelligence for it to end well for you.

Strictly hearsay. But I’m told by people who’ve worked in nursing/old age homes that promiscuity is rampant/an issue(?) in those hotbeds of amorality.

…I can’t wait to hit my 70s…

Bullying! White supremacy rearing it’s ugly head!

I remember thinking the same thing about 30 year olds and 40 year olds once upon a time, then I became them and realized I’m still the same person at my core.

Novelty has worn off for some things, others have been “conquered” in a been there, done that sort of way et cetera, but the same inner desires (health, strength, success, pussy and so on) exist intact. I doubt any of it will change.

Research “STD transmission” at retirement homes.

Exactly. Someone needs to tell that white man to stop oppressing me with his words. It’s like literally lynching me.

He’s not white. He’s a descendant of the gods.

Only half white, unfortunately.

Your comments just make me laugh. I don’t hold grudges against internet strangers. I also think I’m literally the only poster who has ever defended anything you’ve said.

I’m not going to date you.

That’s okay. You’re too old for me anyway.

Thanks for the tag. I don’t have much brain power or time at the moment to write my own stuff, but considering female masochism and lust for dominant men were discussed above, I’m reminded of F. Roger Devlin’s essay “On the Question of Female Masochism”.

Some quotes:

“We are attracted to qualities in the opposite sex which our own sex lacks. For many women, this means an attraction to male brutality. Such women may claim to want a sensitive fellow who is in touch with his feelings, but this bears no relation to their behavior. What women say about men comes from their cerebral cortex; how they choose men depends upon their evolutionary more primitive limbic system. Even campus feminists choose arrogant jocks to “hook up” with, not male feminists in touch with their emotions. I have heard it suggested that the best reason not to strike a woman today is that you will never be able to get rid of her afterwards. :rofl:

“Why don’t such women simply tell their men that they find violence and dominance exciting? Perhaps it would destroy the fantasy to say “I’m in the mood, so could you please slap me around for a bit?” In most cases, the women are probably just behaving instinctively, not understanding their own motivations. In any case, it would obviously be useful for well-intentioned husbands to understand this aspect of women’s sexuality. It might prevent more serious violence and even save a few marriages.”

“If you put a woman like this in a room with a dozen men, within five minutes she would be exclusively focused on the meanest, most domineering and brutal fellow in the room.”

I think this is a myth. It isn’t good guys coming last. It’s docile guys that allow themselves to be walked all over that come last. Knowingly being in the friendzone doesn’t make you a good guy, it makes you a doormat.

I would add that it’s the guys who choose assholes who come last.

Same with toxic masculinity. It’s not masculine men who are toxic, it’s assholes who are toxic. Avoid them!

Leave the girl assholes to the boy assholes and vice versa.
