Senior Sex: An Idea Whose Time Has Cum!

This headline should clue you into my style of viewing sex for older adults. Don’t you think it’s about time we stopped behaving as if sex is only for the young? That’s the dreary message we’ve been handed, and I, for one, want to shatter that ridiculous idea.

A little over a year ago, I was featured in a skin-tight gold bathing suit for a Dolce & Gabbana ad. I thought nothing of it. After all, I swim almost every day, and have been doing it for over 25 years. Suddenly I was tagged as a Cougar, and instead of being derided, I was adulated. I practically became a public service announcement for the beauty and desirability of the older woman.  Suited me just fine! (bathing suited)

And who was most pleased by this super sexy senior? The young, that’s who. Every day I get emails and am stopped on the street for hugs…and even autographs. Can you imagine how great it is to hear that they are thrilled and inspired and want to be like me when they grow up.

I’m pleased to be on the front lines of this sexual revolution. More and more older women are dropping their shame about being sexual (and their underwear too!). They’re shortening their skirts, flaunting their cleavage, and loving their mature bodies.

Inappropriate? Who says so?

And what’s more… who cares?
