Posted: 8/20/2009 3:07:06 PM | azout, I think you're right... to a degree.
There's a difference between"attraction," "sex" and "libido." Libido refers to instinctual physical desire, an awareness of a physical need that drives one to seek fulfillment of that need.
Sex is the fulfilling of that instinct, and we all have a choice whether to fulfill the need by sex with another person, or not, and if so, what we would like that person to be comprised of (i.e., attraction, whether conscious choice or subconscious).
From Websters:
libido: 1. all of the instinctual energies and desires that are derived from the id. 2. sexual instinct or drive.

You guys are a wealth of information!
And if I might add that, when you have one's heart and mind in the mix of passion...
then, one's libibo's are in that higher plane......and that,pulp and all ....... is about good as it gets........ imo | |

Is it common for someone 57 years old to want sex almost every day or sometimes twice a day??
I would say no, it's not common.
when you have one's heart and mind in the mix of passion...
then, one's libibo's are in that higher plane
and this is not common either... but much preferred.  | |

Your posts, not only on this thread, leave me with the distinct impression that you have a lack of respect for and trust in men. Then you would be quite wrong. Actually, I love men ... but am picky as to whom I share my body with.
For anyone to gather such an attitude from my posts just shows they are feeling personally attacked. Let it go. I'm not attacking anyone.
Those who know me ... know that I just call things the way I see them. There's any number of people on my profile who will attest to that. I would invite anyone (not just the poster I am responding to) to contact any man/lady who has written a testimonial for me ... they all know me well ... one gentleman was even a platonic roommate.
OT ...
I'm all for the libido thing ... I want a man who has one and can actually act on it ... and not just turn it into "wishful thinking".
If men take good care of themselves and don't get fat and sloppy (which contributes greatly to the diabetes and heart problems ... which does a real number on erectile function) ... then most would not have a problem.
Vascular health is very important to erectile function. Unfortunately during the years that men should be keeping that in mind, most have a tendency not to pay attention and just pursue the "food lines" or the "all you can eat joints" ... followed by way too many hours spent on the couch or sitting in front a computers instead of out on a bike, or pushing a lawn mower (instead of riding one) or just sitting on the side lines instead of out there actually playing a sport.
I dance and ride a bike ... and I actively pursue men who participate in such activities. I also totally enjoy helping with DIY projects and have been known to start such projects while in a relationship ... just to get a man off his butt. | |

Posted: 8/21/2009 9:56:47 AM | I believe the libido, like a fine wine, improves with age...savored by the sip as opposed to the gulp of youth, a refinement that requires the variance only age can give...and since I plan to use mine well in to my 80's.... i'm just sayin | |

Posted: 8/21/2009 3:25:30 PM | | I would say I'm not surprised to see this. Its the most basic of human needs according to Maslow's hierarchy of needs. I say hey be happy most of us young folks like seeing that in older people hey! :D | |

If they're attempting to use "the pill" ... better make sure the "ticker" is in good shape, so be sure to check for heart medications. Also, don't forget ... a lot of the guys who are using "the pill" are diabetic or also having problems with depression. Check for that kind of medication as well. Of course, that doesn't include the overweight guys ... most of them also need "the pill" too ... but that's something you can see right away as opposed to what one finds out "after the fact"
OT ...
Libido is all fine and dandy ... it only means that the thought is present. Whether or not the action can actually follow ... a total other story in itself.
Ummmm ... actions speak louder than words ... or in this case ... thoughts. | |

My *personal* experience dealing with men with ED, is that if the libido is good and strong, *action* will follow. . . . Perhaps not poking, but action comes in many many forms, lol! The Universe is very wise. For those, men and women, who have mistaken poking for either love making or sex, I feel a great deal of pity.
Carry on.

Posted: 8/22/2009 2:29:43 PM | If libido is nothing but oral.................there is no reason I need to deal with that only. Each to their own, but I am a all or nothing person as far as mates go.
"who have mistaken poking for either love making or sex"
For those who want to live like that enjoy, but I will pass. | |

Posted: 8/22/2009 3:12:47 PM |  I'm wondering how many men are getting to use their libido and what percentage are being told to "put that thing away"?  | |

I am wondering how many men lived with that during their last marriage, and expect that that is all there is. | |
