A woman argues that sex remains worth having into your 60s and beyond, not for reproduction but for pleasure, endorphins, health, and connection with partners. She stresses it's a personal choice, not an obligation.
Why still have sex in your 60s? That's often a question I get asked. Can you believe it? Why we should still want to carry on bonking when we're past baby-making age? Well, for a number of reasons. One is because it's really fun. Sex makes you feel good. It fills your body with endorphins. It keeps you happy and keeps you healthy. And of course, it helps you bond with your partner, whether they're serious or more casual, and generally it's just good for you. So why shouldn't we still do it? That's what I say, why shouldn't we? And let's face it, if we want to carry on doing it— and not everybody does, I admit— but if you do want to do it, go ahead, you can keep doing it for as long as you live. And isn't that a wonderful, wonderful thing?
