9 Reasons Senior Communities are Getting Wild

6) Sex is Good For Seniors

There is now a public conversation about sex and people understand that it is a healthy activity. A few years back, Britain’s official health service used the slogan ’an orgasm a day keeps the doctor away’ to encourage people to be more sexually active. Seniors are heeding the advice.

Yes, sex is now like the proverbial apple. And it’s not the funny lad next door saying; it’s Britain’s official health service. And the Brits aren’t alone. Doctors all over the world are now rhapsodizing about the virtues of sex. It keeps your blood pressure in check and it serves as a very good cardiovascular exercise. All this has brought about a positive awareness. People have started seeing sex as a constructive, healthy activity instead of an expression of man’s untamable lust. And thanks to this image-building — older people, who are usually health-conscious, are now loosening up with no qualms: it’s a perfectly healthy activity.
