I loved reading this article in the NY Times last week by Nancy Freedman Price:  “Yes, We Do.  Even at Our Age.”  It confirms what Peggy Kleinplatz, Ph.D. said about her research into sex in long-term relationships; see my last post, “Great Sex:  Researcher Tells All“  Sex as we age is about:

• Expressions of caring
• The never-ending need for the touch of another human being
• Recreation and relaxation
• Sharing an intimate experience
• Celebrating life

Honestly, I know that it may be difficult for a younger person to imagine being sexual past, say, 50.  I know that you look ahead and wonder how anyone can find a somewhat flabby, wrinkled partner that you’ve known for years to be a hot commodity.

Read the article.  You’ll understand.  Comment.
