Doesn't Look So Promising?

Is it really downhill from here(mid 50s)(wife mid 40s)? 

 

[Kinnock]

For men, if you exercise regularly and eat a healthy diet of fresh young women, the downward gradient can be reduced to a plateau.

[LaosLover]

Very encouraging that the line's descent slackens around age 70 for half a decade before going into a complete free fall. That dotted line portion at the end is worrying.

 

But Picasso was still hitting it in his 80's so why not me? Or maybe it's just all oral at the end. I can think of worse fates.

 

Big Daddy in Cat On a Hot Tin Roof said life's sex encounters were all numbered. Sad but true.

That's why they invented Viagra.

If the wife is only in her 40s and not interested I suspect more to it than hormones.

 

As for myself, I'm way older than you and still desire it as much as in my 20s, but a prostatectomy did to me what a lack of hormones did for other men.

The graph explains more than any words why most older men don't get on a plane to Asia.

Correct, there's plenty you can do to mitigate that drop off  - but most people are too lazy to put in the effort.

Yes, there is something to 'use it or lose it' as to sex drive but maybe just as importantly...

 

At 50-60 you can fool yourself as to being middle aged... but by age 65-70+ there is no denying that you have already reached the pinnacle not only of prowess but of life in general. And for most of us it is a downhill process lined with aches and pains and loss of comforts as we physically deteriorate, and a realistic sense of vulnerability increases. 

 

Some people keep in pretty good shape, others have mental decline. It becomes a minefield out there.

The big relief apparently is about age 55 when men stop thinking about sex every 12 seconds, or whatever, it is and stop chasing short skirts. 

 

Jon Stewart, of the Jon Stewart Show, said it is a huge relief.

Every 14 seconds after 55?

I wouldn't dream of taking a drug to get it up. I prefer to let nature take it's course.

Nah, I've passed 55 and am now old. Thinking anything else is foolish.

A fair number do too. 

My father said on a recent trip that he's like to come here when my mother dies!

a fellow's dad came here at 90, wheelchair bound, the price of help was the reason... when the nurse walked him down the road in Pattaya, the old fellow said, "Wow, I wish I came here when I was 80!"

I made it to 63 before the rot (very suddenly) set in.

Before then I was still cycling 30Km every day or trail running in the mountains.

 

At 66 the best I can manage is walking 6Km/day.

How the Brit government can consider moving the state pension age to 70 years old is totally incomprehensible.

I have a few years until then so we'll see. To be honest, I am happy to reach 56, as many  friends said I'd be dead by 30. 

It's 75 I'm not looking forward to, as that is when my father went downhill, and many men I know.

Happily Jon Stewart only represents himself. It's not so with other men.

However, I've never "chased" any female, whatever that actually means, and a beautiful woman is beautiful in any length skirt.

I'm not there yet, but when it happens it'll no doubt be at the worst possible time. We can prepare for it, but I reckon it'll be worse than I can imagine.

If I looked up the date of my prostate op I could tell you the exact day my life went down the gurgler.

 

The government will do whatever it likes re pensions because politicians have a great parliamentary pension to look forward to, and I bet that won't get pushed back or reduced. I doubt they care much about those that they are supposed to serve, and I haven't seen much caring from the government in the past 2 years. They even screwed me on having my pension paid in Thailand, so I had to go back to the boring land.

That's sad. I considered myself no more than middle aged till at least 65. I certainly never lacked energy the way I do now. I only have to look at a shovel and I feel tired. The worst of it is that I rarely get to the end of any movie started after 9 pm without falling asleep.

Why is there a slight tick 'up' in the Viagra line past 60?

I still run 25 km a week and play other sports. I don't feel old at all, it's just I accept I am. Women in their 20s don't look at me like they used to, but still to be called Papa, I dread that day.

TBH that's not much exercise.

I'm doing 6Km/day at 66 (42Km/week)

At 55 I was doing around 12Km/day.

Define "downhill"

I can confirm that 20 years ago I was horny all the time. Now not (all the time) anymore.

Is that good or bad?

Personally I think it's good. Because if I think now about the time when I was young and the late night adventures to Thermae and other places and what I f$#%# at that time I don't really want to remember that too clearly anymore.

Now if I go out and I meet a girl who makes me horny, fine. And if not that is also fine, no "I need to find something/anything" anymore.

[Pravda]

Seriously who cares. Sex has to be some ultimate punishment for men. Imagine being a slave to your own body 24 hours a day even when you dream. My best friend at the University who was behind on his studies once told me I would have gotten so far if I didn't have a dck. Can you even enjoy sex when you have to take Viagra? Honestly you people should be honest with yourselves. I tried the blue pill a few times and didn't like it at all. It totally numbs your baby maker and the whole act feels extremely forced. Do you guys take it to show it to your mates back home or perhaps this group how better you are than the rest?

 

Waste of time and DGAF!

 

Personally I want to spend my old days in peace drinking coffee as far away from Thailand as possible.
