Gay sex better with age

Aging queers take heart: sex doesn't end after middle age!

“My sex is better than it has ever been,” says Jim Deva. At 60, Deva doesn't accept the notion that older people should "sit in the back of the room and be very polite.”

In fact, “I don’t give a shit what they think,” he says.

“They [the young generation] really don’t think of us as sexual in any way,” he explains. “But older gay men and lesbians are extremely sexual. Far more than they have ever been in their entire life.”

80-year-old Clyde Rowett couldn't agree more. "It's quality not quantity now," he says. “As we go through life, our behaviours change, and as our behaviours change our priorities change and our experience and knowledge base expands.”

So even when you retire, your pecker doesn't have to!
