I started off this blog with eight ways a wife could be a good lover to her husband or partner. In my opinion, men don’t get enough attention in the bedroom as they should. However, with this blog, I hope that will change.
Sex changes as we age, and that is good news; that means we mature. When we are younger we have performance anxieties, and many common sex problems occur far more than when we are older. Men and women are still alive, vital and sexy at age 40, 50, 60 and beyond; and they’re sexually confident and experienced, too. As long as we don’t lose our zest for life we won’t miss our desire for lovemaking.
I find many couples ages 40, 50, 60 are on the threshold of a fuller, richer and more mature sex life than they have enjoyed in the past.
J.D. Block, Ph. D., states that adult-only sex can be emotionally satisfying and thrilling physically. And as our bodies forgo a physiological change that dictates that we make certain adaptation to our style of lovemaking, we are also the beneficiaries of some potent sexual benefits at mid-age.
The doctor points out the benefit of mid-age sex… I don’t like the word midlife.
- Greater sophistication about our own and partner’s sexuality
- Increased capability of communicating our sexual and emotional needs without fear of looking silly or being rejected or misunderstood by the one we love
- Improved sexual responsiveness in women and a corresponding improved ability to control ejaculation in men
- Greater willingness to experiment with sexual variations
- Lessened inhibitions and increased ability to have fun during lovemaking
- Far greater technical proficiency as a lover
Now that’s a mouth full; however, this gives us a taste of what we should be looking toward in our mid-age sex life. I don’t like the word midlife.
