Plenty of seniors worry about the day they won’t be able to "do it" anymore — but don’t worry so much, because great sex doesn’t have to come with an expiration date.
Of course, leave it to clueless sex researchers to try to tell you otherwise. In a cockamamie new study, they claim to have concocted a measure they call the "sexually active life expectancy."
That’s right — they’re already planning the funeral for your sex life.
Mark you calendars: These researchers claim in the journal BMJ that men aged 55 right now can expect 15 more years of sex… while women the same age get just 10.6 years.
The researchers also say that men have better sex as they get older. Women? Well, what’d you expect — after all, they tap out right around the time they start collecting social security checks, according to that nonsensical "life expectancy."
And already, some women are griping.
"Why should men be having better sex than women? Viagra came out for men. Where’s the female equivalent?" an indignant Dr. Eva Ritvo, vice chair of psychiatry at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine, told HealthDay.
She’s a psychiatrist, so it’s no great shock that she’s obsessed with popping pills. But this isn’t about meds, and it’s certainly not an equal rights issue. Men and women alike can have great sex without drugs well into their golden years… because your sex life doesn’t have to end at 65, 70 or even 80.
In a lot of ways, it’s just beginning.
Hey, you have to do something with all the free time you get when you retire… and sex is the best way to keep naturally active, stay healthy and lower your risk for heart disease and other conditions.
If you want the ultimate guide to great sex, forget meds and read the Douglass Report instead. If you’re not a subscriber, click here now to read the April issue. It’s packed for the sack — filled with everything you need to know to get your love life smoking.
Remember, sex isn’t like bread or cheese with an expiration date… it’s like good scotch — it only gets better with age.
