DEBUNKING MYTHS AROUND SEX & AGING
Our sexuality and desire evolve as we do. Both need to accommodate the myriad of physical, emotional and social changes that happen in middle-age and beyond.
Dr. Laurie Betito joins us to deep dive into this topic, including:
Common myths about sex and aging
The evolution of sex for individuals, including physical and desire changes
The phases in a long-term relationship: from lust to long term, changes in the WAY we desire
Spontaneous vs responsive desire
What changes to expect as your body ages, and what impact that has on sex
It's never too soon - or too late - to prioritize your own pleasure
The truth behind "Use it or Lose it"... [hint USE IT!]
Why sex is often better as we age and/or mature in our own confidence
Sex in your 40s, 50, 60s can be the best ever but it requires a different skill-set -- more communication, longer foreplay, different positions, sexual toys and aids -- to stay hot
One study says women with happy, active sex lives look an average of 7 years younger than their peers (!!)
We are MORE satisfied, more FREE, more COMFORTABLE, have more of a VOICE, and more CONFIDENCE as we mature and evolve.
