"6 Reasons Sex Gets Better With Age, According To Science" by Joshuamassodi(m): 8:56pm On Feb 15, 2018 |
Sex is for the beautiful and the young. At
least according to every other sex scene
that plays out on TV. But despite what
people tend to believe, sex doesn’t go
downhill after 30. In fact, many recent
cases have found that like wine, sex gets
better with age. A new study of 828 Brits
conducted by dating site,
IllicitEncounters.com, found that 37
percent of women and 34 percent of men
revealed that the best age to have sex is in
your 40s.
“20-year-olds are having plenty of sex, but
the 40-year-olds are actually enjoying it,” a
spokesperson from Illicit Encounters said.
“40-year-olds have fewer hang-ups than
20-year-olds, and more experience under
their wing – they really know what they
want out of their intimate life – and that’s
great sex!”
Illicit Encounters isn’t the first to reveal this
tidbit of information. Recently, many
studies have come out revealing what your
parents already know, that sex gets better
with age.
Here are six science-backed facts to prove
it:
1. Women Have A Better
Chance Of Climaxing
Take it from people who are
going through it now, as
your age increases, so does
your enjoyment for sex. In
fact, a survey found that 54
percent of women felt that
sex gets better with age. An
OkCupid study conducted in
2011 even found that
women in their early 20s
had about a 40 percent
chance of having difficulty
reaching an orgasm, while
that percentage dropped to
around 20 percent for
women in their 40s.
2. Women Become More
Confident
One of the reasons why
many experts believe sex
gets better as we grow
older is because we tend to
be more confident in
ourselves. I think everyone
can attest to the fact that
sex in your 20s is about
experimentation . It’s about
trying new things and
exploring your likes and
your dislikes. It can also be
awkward as hell. But as you
age, you’ve been there, done
that. You know what you
like and what you don’t like.
You also become more
comfortable in who you are
and your sexuality.
According to couples’ counselor, Tara
Saglio, “By the time they’re older, people
have usually come to terms with many of
their insecurities about body image.
They’re also likely to have less performance
anxiety. The worries all men and women
have — am I boring in bed? Do I look OK?
Too hairy? – are less acute.”
3. With Confidence Comes A
Sense Of Adventure Thus,
Wilder Sex.
A study conducted by Health
Plus magazine of people 45-
plus found that older
women were more
adventurous . In fact, 89
percent of women admitted
to liking various positions
and locations. Of course,
those women also said that
sex was better in their 40s
than it had been in their
20s.
4. Genital Primes Are Much
Different Than Sexual
Primes.
According to sex therapist,
David Schnarch, there’s a big
different between ones’
genital prime and ones’
sexual prime . Men reach
their genital prime in their
late teens or early 20s. They
get aroused more quickly
and can have sex much
more frequently because
they’re in their physical
prime. However, their minds
aren’t set to experience
good sex. According to
Schnarch, guys in their 20s
are too impulsive, insecure,
and inexperienced that they
don’t truly reach their sexual
primes until they’re middle
aged.
5. Married Sex = Better Sex
A study conducted by
women’s magazine, Your
Life, interviewed
professional British women
35 and over on their
attitudes toward sex. While
75 percent of women said
they were happy with their
sex lives, that number
jumped to 82 percent for
women who were currently
in relationships, and
married women seemed to
be the happiest overall.
Priya and Bob Tourkow, a couple who’s
been together for 15 years and run
retreats focused on reconnecting partners,
told The Telegraph UK, “Everything slows
down whether you like it or not. But as
you get older, sex has the potential to be
deeper, more loving experience without
the franticness that young people
experience. There’s a real magic in that.”
6. Sexual Satisfaction
Increases As You Age
In a study published by
researchers at the University
of Manchester, 80 percent of
sexually active men over 50
admit to being satisfied
with their sex lives, while
85 percent of sexually active
women between the ages of
60 to 69 are satisfied with
theirs. According to the
study, among the 79-plus
group, 90 percent of survey
participants admitted to
being satisfied with their
sex lives. Yes, as much as
you hate to admit, your
grandparents may be
getting a little lovin’
themselves. |
