Re: Baby Boomers.... and sex

That would be my personal choice. You can have fun, but use your head and take all necessary precautions. Which is what I believe the original post advocated.

I don't think the intent of the information given in the link was meant to be an approval, or disapproval of sex between seniors.. The morality of sex.. or sex with someone other than a spouse is not the issue. The issue is that Seniors are living longer and healthier.. and they are having sex.. they are also getting STDs and it's on the rise in this age group. Folks should be aware that sex causes more than just pregnancy and take the necessary precautions.

Re: Baby Boomers.... and sex

Ugh the thought of putting yerself about truly sickens me - but that's my bag - no one elses, do what you like but don't moan to me when it all collapses around you ........

Re: Baby Boomers.... and sex

I have to ask... You aren't referring to me with that comment are you?

Re: Baby Boomers.... and sex

No !
No - definitely not - you're a married woman and to be respected

Re: Baby Boomers.... and sex

Well thank you... but I don't find single women having sex a reason to disrespect them either. I do think that a certain level of discression is necessary.. as well as common sense. Men have been "fooling around" since the beginning of time without many eyebrows being raised. Women are the other half of that component.. and should have the same ability if they desire. There is a difference in participating in a sexual relationship... and being a prostitute.

Re: Baby Boomers.... and sex

Bit tired of hearing about 'well men do it' ..... So ! .......Doesn't mean women have to lower themselves to be equal to that behaviour.
I feel just as strongly towards male sluts - many children have been born as a result of a quick fix - I see 'nothing' endearing about it ........

Re: Baby Boomers.... and sex

I find I have more respect for prostitutes than some of the men and women dashing from person to person these days.

Something really worries me is how celibacy and virginity are made to sound so wrong and laughed at. We don't have freedom really as we can't be free to just not do it !

Re: Baby Boomers.... and sex

Couldn't have put it better meself - well I didn't ......

Re: Baby Boomers.... and sex

More respect for prostitutes???

People on here are talking about 'dangers'. Well, many prostitutes are on drugs, sharing needles, passing STD's around, & risking getting beaten up, robbed or killed! Some have kids. Unbelievable!

And as far as tired of hearing about women doing it if they want or "don't moan to me", who said anyone would?

Men & women can live anyway they choose, they're big, grown up people. Calling people "sluts" because they choose to 'date' various people is pretty ignorant & judgemental in my books.

Re: Baby Boomers.... and sex

Yes more respect for prostitutes who generally are doing a job keeping themselves clean and safe. I feel sorry for the ones you are talking about but they are not the entire population, many are very serious about their profession.

And yes people are adults and can do what they want doesn't mean we all have to like that or encourage it.

As I said previously they seem to have no problem calling those who are celibate or virgins out for their sexual decisions so they can hardly moan if they are judged too.
