Like a fine wine, new research has shown that women become more sexually satisfied with age.
Before all of our male readers begin to jump for joy of what to expect from their ladies later in life, the results show that older women can also have a decreased sex drive.
So how does this make sense; the older women get, the more they enjoy sex but the less they want it?! We can hear you ladies; “Yes, we’re satisfied that we’re not having sex!” Well this isn’t what the research shows… read on!
The recent American study looked at the sex lives of over 800 women in varying stages of ‘middle age.’ Women within their 80’s were also included but the average ages of the participants were within their mid-60’s.
It was found that women that had been through the menopause were more prone to desiring sex less, although this was noted to occur prior to the menopause also. Surprisingly to some almost half of the participants said they hardly ever wanted sex!
However, in a turn on events, 61% of women said that they enjoy the sex that they do have and that 67% of older women reach orgasm nearly every time they have sex. Now that’s what we like to hear!
The study outlined that the research indicates it is indeed the quality of the sex that women are more concerned about which is possibly due to their connection and the sustenance of their relationship.
We can imagine that if this study included the use of the Love Swing or a variety of vibrators that there would be a very different result! We are always happy to offer a helping hand with a vibrator or two!
