Sexuality and Aging
Sexuality is usually intense in the young and in the new relationships. In a new relationship, a young couple is full of curiosity and desire for each other. They look for opportunities to have sex anytime and anywhere. They are always motivated and in the mood for sex. It never matters if one will wake up early to work or school, or how late they went to bed the night before. It never matters if they have been exhausted after a long day of travel, work, or after hiking 20 miles. They would have a quickie or a long lasted sex at any time anywhere in the house.
By the time a relationship gets olde the couple also ages. Even though love may become stronger between the two, sex becomes less spontaneous, less intense, and more of a routine and a chore. The busy life schedule and many responsibilities get in the way of the spontaneity and the frequency of sex in the older couples. With age, testosterone levels drop hence libido and the need for sex decrease too. It takes longer and gets harder for older couples to get aroused, and sex might become a chore.
The jokes are funny because they summarize the facts about sex in the elder. Often the two would cover up the lack of desire or mood with excuses like “I am tired and exhausted,” or “I am so stressed out about work or a problem,” “the kids are outside,” or the most famous excuse “I have a headache.” Sex becomes less and less essential or frequent in the elderly because of boredom, fatigue, lack of libido, physical weakness, impotence, or giving priority to other life duties.
