Hi, I'm Ned Cross again, and I'm 80 years old, and I enjoy a very, very healthy sexual life. I guess many people feel like that they're not going to have sex after 80 or 75 or whatever. And I say, why not? It's enjoyable, feels damn good. Why not do it if you can muster the erection and all the things that go with it? And that's what Dr. Truong has helped me with. So now, I guess what I'm saying is life after 80. Maybe the word is life begins at 80. That that's the way I feel. I'm not ready to give up. I want to go on, and I want to go do it all with sex as often as I can, which for me and my girlfriend, maybe three to five times a week. We enjoy the heck out of it.
How old's your girlfriend?
Huh?
How old's your girlfriend?
I'm 80 and she's 80. I'm three months older than her. I was born October 5, 1940. She was born January 5, 1941.
And what are the benefits that you see from having sex at this age?
Well, first of all, the sexual energy playing gives you more energy in your life, and it gives you something to be looking forward to. It keeps pulling you forward, forward. Instead of you sitting and not going anywhere, it just pulls you forward because you're looking forward to it. Well, at least I am and she is. Anything else? Got.
