Sex

Welcome fatfairy,what can i say had a lull myself at 61 lost my sex drive ,thanks to my loverly partner at 64 i am back on track if you know what i mean!! don`t give up.

So there is hope! thank goodness for that. What was the magic ingredient, do you think?

Is there one ?

did anyone else hear the sociologist talking about teenagers using mobile phones as part of their sex lives. I had heard something of this before from school staff who tell kids not to send their friends pictures of them having sex!!! I thought this was maybe a local phenomenon but NO!
Apparently it is quite normal part of teenage flirtation to send each other provocative photos of themselves. Some of the boys apparently said that you should not include your face in the shots. !!!!!
Now there is something for the over 50s to think about...

Not including face in shot - reminds me of old joke which I shall put on joke thread not here. I daresay you all remember it.

nanachrissy I like your idea very much...and to not have to listen to an OG grumbling, as men do!!!!

Just thinking about 'the sex talk' that parents are supposed to give their kids. When I was a young lass, the only thing Mum told me was a hundred different versions of 'thou shalt not'.

When my sons reached that dangerous age, my only talk to them was various versions of 'Don't trust the pill, always use a condom'

How times have changed.

For the better.

JessM,i use gransnet instead.Faye please explain "as men do!!!!" to a man ?.

I quite fancy a last naughty fling before the grave. Got to thinking yesterday how nice it would be to have some excitement - are you shocked?

No I'm not shocked :-) you go for it girl!

Hi fatfairy, this is an interesting quote from Marlene Dietrich:

"A man would prefer to come home to an unmade bed and a happy woman than to a neatly made bed and an angry woman."

Thats good if I find an unfortunate victim of my feral lust I can say Nanny said 'go for it'

just sat reading this thread really made me laugh dont think your ever too old for sex just lucky if your getting any

If more people (of whatever age) realised that it's OK not to be sexually active there would be a lot less angst in the world! The OH and I have a loving relationship, but after 43 years, there's more to life than all that thrashing about and worrying about lubricants and whether he can or he can't..... It's a biological function - enjoyable, but why bother to keep at it? Humans are programmed to copulate in order to procreate. When we are past it - forget it!

I don't care who is programmed to do what and when,I've been married for nearly 40yrs and have no intention of giving up our siesta's and long week-end lie ins.
Go for it susiecb

Why do I keep gravitating to this thread?

Post-menopausal sex = increased risk of prostate cancer and various STDs (Fact) - come on peeps - give your nether regions a rest!

hey number,see you having a little spy as well as me it brightens up the afternoon don't you agree ?

oh fatfairy,i am now starting to worry i thought we were just going through a 'dry spell' Help !!!

Go for it susiecb

...can only agree with acanthus.....good book and a cup of tea, moi.....

I think we should all do whatever we like at our time of life! Usually we ladies(I use the term very loosely!) have looked after people most of our lives and put ourselves second, so now go for it whatever IT maybe!
Sometimes I feel like a wild session (Haha, it doesn't last long!) and sometimes it's the baggy nighty and a cup of cocoa.

DH says that the 'medicine' that they gave him when he did in his National Service days has at last started to work....I've not seen any difference, though!

...bromide?

It's nice to be able to still 'get it on' occasionally after 45 years... makes us both feel a bit special. There are times when it doesn't work out, but that's ok too.
