THERE’S no reason for your sex life to suffer when you turn 50, in fact most people say they reach a peak of sexual satisfaction after celebrating their half-century birthday.
Sex for the over-50s is an interesting topic of conversation
But what happened to the over-50s enjoying sex? Just because the grey hairs have started sneaking through, doesn’t mean it’s time to pack-up the raunchy underwear and forget sex forever.
We take a look at seven top reasons why sex in your 50s is one of the best and most satisfying eras of your life.
More satisfied: A National Council on Ageing survey reports, among people age 60 and over who have regular intercourse, 74 percent of the men and 70 percent of the women find their sex lives more satisfying than when they were in their forties.

On National Orgasm Day we asked a sexpert if women in their 50s could orgasm like they did in their 20s – and THIS was the answer.
Many say the older you get, the more confident and fabulous the sex
