Women (and Sex) Get Better With Age – Observing Life Stages
Posted by Allura Joy on Jan 4 in Sex and Relationships, Women
Just like fine wine and cheese, women also get better with age – and so does the sex! Women especially seem to enjoy sex much more when they are older and more experienced. Throughout our life stages, we have various areas of focus and interests. During our younger years, much of our our time and energy is spent exploring our freedom and indulging excessively. Or many of us are disciplined to be completely focused on academic and personal development. Curiosity about sex is generally fulfilled by amateur experimentation learned from various media and locker room talk.
Our first intimate interactions consist of trying to figure out what we’re doing and becoming comfortable with openly sharing our bodies with another. Most young women feel extremely insecure about how they look, as they tend to compare themselves to peers, as well as airbrushed supermodels in magazines and on television. Lacking self-confidence and experience, young women are generally not as knowledgeable or skillful in the bedroom. They tend to get too caught up in their heads and are unable to fully enjoy the passion and potential of intense intimacy.
Earlier in life, sex is mostly hormone driven, but as a person ages it becomes much more about sensuality. Traditionally, couples begin their families in their 20’s and spend the next 15-20 years consumed with domestic duties and kid-related activities. Men are generally focused on money and careers, feeling overly stressed in providing for their families. Women juggle careers, family and various interests. Couples struggle to stay in balance with parental obligations, finances and maintaining a busy lifestyle. To nourish a healthy personal relationship is not often a priority; let alone entertaining a hot steamy sex life.
As children evolve into teenagers, they no longer need their parents as much – becoming more independent and spending time away from home. This empty nest stage is an opportune time to re-evaluate the marriage, as it generally goes one way or the other. Divorce is more prevalent with this family dynamic, as the “glue” that held the family together is gradually disbanding. Some couples may find themselves falling in love with each other all over again – enjoying a renewed sense of freedom and intimacy that they didn’t have before. As their lives slow down, there’s more time to focus on rekindling their relationship and exploring a deeper intimate connection.
Whether a long-time married woman or a divorcee, middle-aged women seem to enjoy sex much more often than when they were younger. They tend to be more comfortable with their bodies, and are more self-confident and secure than most younger women. With an empowered attitude and obvious projection of sexual energy, older women (who take good care of themselves) can easily attract the attention of old and young men alike. They know what they want and can be explicitly directive with men in how to pleasure them. Most men can appreciate that, as it takes the guesswork out of how to best satisfy their lover.
Studies confirm that middle-aged women are more sexually active as compared to young women; findings indicate women between 31 and 54 are able to enjoy better orgasms than women aged between 18 and 30. Also, as women age, they are more likely to experience vaginal and G-spot orgasms more often and more intensely. Most young women under 30 have much higher estrogen levels and their vaginal lining is too thick to allow direct stimulation of their G-spot nerves. As the estrogen level begins to decline in women after 30, the vaginal lining becomes thinner and the G-spot becomes more accessible. As a result, most women become more easily sexually stimulated as they age.
Rather than worry about aging and concern yourself with becoming less desirable, focus more on staying active, healthy and vibrant. The better you feel, the better you look, and the sexier you will be! Embrace the aging process with a positive joyful attitude, and others will notice the quality of person you are, more so than the number of years you represent. For more energy, vibrancy, motivation and contentment, try taking a daily supplement such as Add Lib to help you feel better physically, mentally and emotionally. Sometimes we need a little boost to enjoy the quality of life we all deserve.
