In an earlier post, I talked about the sexual changes that come with ageing. Those changes may mean that you need to do things a little differently in order to get the same results.
If you're a woman who has always taken for granted that your man would be ‘ready to go’ whenever you gave the signal, you may now find that he needs a little more stimulation to get things up and running. That doesn’t mean that you are any less desirable or that your man isn’t interested – it just means that the engine needs to be revved up a little more than in the past. Use the opportunity to extend foreplay – lavish him with touch and use a firm grip on his penis.
Women, too, need more foreplay than in the past. If you're a man whose partner could easily reach orgasm with 15-20 minutes of foreplay in earlier days, you may now find that same partner needing 30 minutes or more of stimulation. That doesn’t mean you've lost your touch – her body has just become a little slower to respond. She may also need the help of a lubricant such as Astroglide to help things along.
This is a great time in life to slow things down a bit between the sheets and enjoy the buildup as much as the finale. There’s a world of pleasure to be taken long before getting to the big “O”.

What DOES Change?
People often want to know what sexual changes are a 'normal' part of getting older. There is a heckuva lot of variety out there, but there are some pretty predictable changes in your sexuality as you age.
Both men and women typically experience a gradual decrease in their sexual drive. Men usually experience fewer spontaneous erections and may need more sexual stimulation to achieve an erection. Erections may not be as firm as in younger days and there can be difficulty for some in maintaining an erection. Orgasm is sometimes delayed - which can actually have the benefit of helping some couples get more in synch.
Women, too, often need more foreplay to get turned on and to be able to reach orgasm. Post-menopausal women may have difficulty with lubrication (which can be easily managed with K-Y jelly).
None of these changes spell an end to your sex life - and with the right accomodations, you can have a rich sexual life well into old age (whatever that is!).
