| Does sex get better after you hit 40? Posted: 7/24/2008 5:48:47 AM | | I don't know that it's gotten better, but seeing I have no real hang-ups about sex-my body naked-his body naked-and I'm not into games-yeah, in that sense I suppose it's better. Course, the man I see now is pretty awesome between the sheets so I feel pretty lucky about that-and seeing I know what I like and I have no issues expressing it-that could also be a reason why sex appears to better now-but I think I had just as much fun in my 20's and 30's. | |

| Does sex get better after you hit 40? Posted: 7/24/2008 6:05:13 AM | I think one thing that improves it is the biggest sex organ the brain improves out of sight. The girl I love has not forgotten but has got over the fact she is beautiful and has a body that would make you want to travel and just wants to please and be pleased with the comfort of being able to direct and be directed. Not afraid to say what she thinks at any time and what she wants which stirs that large organ, what a combination, you just love who they are and want to give all you got so it improves out of sight once you reach that level of maturity, no doubt  | |

| Does sex get better after you hit 40? Posted: 7/24/2008 6:52:16 AM | Another fishie made me take a gander at this thread again, and I saw:
What do you do now that you didn't do then?
Or is it just the intensity of feeling when the same things happen?
Do we enjoy pleasurable sensations more after we hit a certain age? ...or is it more of a contrast because we're relaxed more than we were when we were younger when we do other things and this makes the intensity more enjoyable *I'm just "fishin'" for reasons here... U tell US what you think!*
What do I do NOW, that I did not then?! Women don't kiss and tell! ;) But let me just say this...I am more open to my sexuality...I do not concern myself if something is "taboo" or "kinky" to others...I appreciate that since sex is between two consenting adults, that THOSE are the only two that should matter! ;)
The intensity? Nah...I think it is a deeper appreciation for the sexual connection you can have with someone...less of an "act" and more of a "desire" for lack of better words. (as a youngster, I prolly had sex at times when I thought it was "expected" or because I thought it might "fix" something in a relationship....no more of that!)
But overall, I think it really is more about being more comfy in my own skin...appreciating that something so natural and that has been around since existence, can be so beautiful and awesome! :) | |

| Does sex get better after you hit 40? Posted: 7/24/2008 10:12:25 AM | My FIRST question here is : WHY would a bunch of people UNDER 40 yrs of age feel the neeed to post an "answer" to this question? Are all the threads at 'TARDS.COM full or what?
What was the question again ... ? Oh ya.
Generally for women YES
Generally for men NO - unless we learn to lose the teeniebopper attitude that all things sexual eminate from our di¢ks. The piping can (and does) work just fine but as ya get older you realize that making love is like a battle. Use ALL your resources or risk losing everything to someone who does. That's just an observation.

| Does sex get better after you hit 40? Posted: 7/24/2008 5:28:49 PM | I can honestly say that sex is amazing since the last ten years...I am now fifty-eight. I am more in touch (no pun intended) with my own sexuality than I have ever been. In turn, I am more apt to be aware of signals and body language of my partner. The sex is more fun and more of a sharing experience than it has ever been - actually it's great. Any guy my age who thinks that women in their forties and fifties or even sixties aren't more fun and sensual and just downright phenominal are missing something...you ladies rock!!
Peace...I gotta go take a shower...

What a tease you are. Over 40, sexy as hell and has a sex drive higher then most American male teenagers. The men must be all over you.
But I think women are different physiologically then men as we age so I would doubt many men over 40 years of age is more sexual then women over 40.
From my understanding women produce less estrogen from their ovaries as they age and more from aromatase enzyme and as women age, many have more circulating androgen levels which can increase their sex drives. Basically they have less circulating estrogen and more circulating androgens such as Dehydrotestosterone(which is a male hormone) and this makes them hotter.
Men as we age we produce less androgens, our androgen receptors are less functioning so we have less active androgens in areas where need and more in areas where not needed. Mainly in the scalp and prostate. Plus as we age we produce more female hormones such as progesterone, estrodial and estrone so we are less sexually active. | |

| Does sex get better after you hit 40? Posted: 7/26/2008 8:36:40 AM | | It had better become better after 40....because as of late its sure as heck isn't frequent. I guess the saying quality over quantity starts to play a role. | |
|
| Does sex get better after you hit 40? Posted: 7/26/2008 9:19:27 AM | as most people above already stated: ABSOLUTELY
sex has always been good but around my late 30s... mindblowing nirvanic bliss...
i know what i want sexually and its not always about penetration | |

| Does sex get better after you hit 40? Posted: 7/26/2008 9:22:00 AM | Quote: Only for the women. For men, we peak at around 19 or 20.
best sexual encounters were with men (on in his late 40s the other in his early 50s) so i guess that debunks that 'myth' -  | |

| Does sex get better after you hit 40? Posted: 7/26/2008 9:40:15 AM | I have found that it does get better. You have more patience and enjoy all the minute pleasures even more. When I was young, it was more of being in a hurry to feel that moment of climax. Now I find that its not so much the destination, but the wonderful trip getting there. I have discovered that I also prefer the older ladies than the young ones . They seem to enjoy taking their time and have no trouble letting a guy know what is working for them. To me, there is nothing more arousing that a mature woman (35 and up). | |

| Does sex get better after you hit 40? Posted: 7/26/2008 3:27:29 PM | I don't think it has to do as much with the sexual revolution as age becoming less relevant. In my 20's, I thought sex couldn't get any better; giving or receiving. Then in my 30's, the same. And 40's. Now in my 50's, it's STILL great; at least as of last night.
So yes, it gets a lot better; and I'm finding that women who were considered as elderly (in their 30's...) by me when I was younger, I'm finding hotter as they put on some years. I find them a LOT sexier than a 20-something, as a total package. | |

| Does sex get better after you hit 40? Posted: 7/26/2008 4:21:50 PM | It did for me, but that also coincided with getting away from a husband who was self-centered and uncaring in bed.
Since that time, I've had two long-term relationships and some flings and the sex just keeps getting better. I'm wondering: am I picking progressively better lovers or am *I* getting better? Perhaps a little of both. Each one has brought something different to the bedroom and I've gained experience and confidence. I'm more relaxed & know better what works. At the rate things are going, I'm going to be out of control when I'm 80. | |

| Does sex get better after you hit 40? Posted: 7/26/2008 4:48:19 PM | Hello Mr. Internet
You have me laughing my ass off. Sex is more enjoyable now even if it is not as easy as it once was. There is no more BS to worry about. You can take your time and enjoy foreplay and both men and women have learned how to enjoy their bodies. I am sorry you are carrying around an unused garden hose now. Think about it...really no pregnancy problems to worry about and hopefully you have learned to communicate what is good and not instead of guessing. And it gets better at 50 as long as you don't try to act like you are 20.... | |

| Does sex get better after you hit 40? Posted: 7/26/2008 4:52:20 PM | Is thinking that turning 40 next week may not be so bad after all the positive posts on how great sex is in your 40's... My 30's were pretty damn good, so, hearing this has me very excited lol. | |
