What Age is Sexual Retirement Age






Sexual retirement is a sad affair. Human beings become sexually active when they are ready and this age differs for everyone, according to psychological articles. Certain cultures and religions encourage sex at a very early age to produce the maximum number of children and others impose a strict set of ethics upon sexual activity, rather like sexual Terms and Conditions with a rigid code of behavior intended to uphold morality. Baby boomers came along and exploded the sexual revolution, making the World a free platform for rebellion and freedom for sexual choices in even the strictest communities.

In most social groups and especially in religious communities, there are certain guidelines in place for the cessation of sexual activity. Where a woman might lose interest in sex at an earlier age than her partner or husband, social codes imply that he must respect her choice to remain celibate, regardless of whether she is likely to change her mind or not. However, baby boomers tend to ask why such a woman might wish to retire from her bedroom interests and also explore the question of whether her decision is prompted by moral or health issues.

Back in the days before baby boomers started making waves over issues of sexual independence, ladies who felt they wished to hang up their saddles simply informed their husbands that they were no longer available for ‘that sort of thing’. The husbands politely went elsewhere for their fun and never mentioned the matter again, if they knew what was good for them…
