More about what we talked about:
- Why Joan Price sees herself as an advocate for ageless sexuality
- The lack of resources for elderly folks about sex? It's why Joan found herself writing books about the topic on her own (including Naked at Our Age: Talking About Senior Sex)
- Joan offers solutions to the problems with older age sexuality. These include, for men, if erections aren't dependable, there are many other ways to express yourself sexually. For women, if you're not in the mood, Joan says have sex anyway; "get aroused and desire will follow."
- You might not need Viagra. Is it possible that your erectile dysfunction is a symptom of a completely different problem? Consult a medical professional before jumping directly to Viagra, Joan says.
- Communication, communication, communication! Joan believes communication is key for elderly partners; to express to your partner about body changes and increasing arousal.
- Joan notes some seniors of sex believe, "If it's not like it used to be, it's over!" Joan stresses that great sex in the later years is possible as well with good experimentation and creativity.
- What is Joan excited about in the future? She's editing a book of erotica with characters over fifty by writers over fifty, with her goal beginning to change society's view and her generation's view of older people having sex.
