Are you ever too old to have sex?

Both men and women can continue to have sex to any age, according to experts, providing that both you and your partner are in good physical health and you are not hurting each other.
Even if intercourse is not possible, physical intimacy can take many forms. Sometimes getting older really does mean getting wiser about the many ways in which partners can bring each other pleasure.

Old Dads
The world’s oldest known father was an Australian called Les Colley, who was 92 when his ninth child was born. He died in 1998, just before his 100th birthday.

The world’s oldest new dad, an East Indian named Nanu Ram Jogi, has fathered his 21st child at the age of 90. He says that he plans to continue breeding for at least another decade.

Freedom for the Older Woman
Women find new freedom after menopause relieves them of the fear of getting pregnant. They can no longer bear children, unlike men who can continue to produce sperm indefinitely. Exceptions are women past menopause, who have been artificially inseminated or had in Vitro Fertilization.

They're doing it
A recent global aging survey of married men and women showed that 87% of married men and 89% of married women in the 60-64 age range are sexually active. Those numbers drop with advancing years, but 29% of men and 25% of women over the age of 80 are still sexually active.

It's good for you
Now studies are showing that sex is good for "older people." One recent study showed that men who have more than two orgasms per week have lower mortality statistics. But these numbers only demonstrate a correlation between sexual activity and longevity, they do not prove that sex prolongs life. What is probably true is that people who are well, and vigorous enough to engage in sexual activity are also healthier in general.

So keep giving each other pleasure and happiness, regardless of your age. If you're 85, you may not be able to assume all the positions in the Kama Sutra, but there is no reason not to enjoy your life to the last breath.
