It’s shocking to believe that today, in comparison to thirty years ago, more and more senior citizens are staying active in sex.
A recent study in Sweden shows that senior citizens’ outlook on sex activity has changed, drastically. This study was conducted on 70 year-olds from 1970 up until recently. Reason to understand this change has sprouted from the simple notation that the seniors interviewed in the 1970’s were born during an era when sexuality was not discussed. However, the most recent group of 70 year-olds that were surveyed were in their thirties during the 1960’s—the decade of sexual revolution.
The modern, sexually active seventy year-olds that were interviewed reported fewer problems in sex than those who were less sexually active. Also, the study found that seniors are more active in sex and are healthier today, with an increased life expectancy of five years for men, and four years for women.
Not one of the lucky sexually active seventy year olds and would like to be? You’d do well to contact the Boston Medical Group Telemedicine.
