Mature fruit means it is sweet, that is ready, in its best time to eat. In humans, maturation induces a state similar: it is a moment where the person may experience a kind of special sweetness and different with their senses and sexuality.

The age imposes all kinds of changes, from anatomical to physiological and psychological, which are transforming the sexual responses of both men and women. However, stimulation and appropriate communication with intimate partners can achieve very satisfactory and pleasant after the elderly.

However, many times, prejudice and social and personal factors both prevent the enjoyment of sexuality and sensuality after this age, as they have all kind of complex trials and sins that hinder and constrain the enjoyment of sharing intimately with the couple after 60 years.

Sexuality of the Elderly might certainly be different from that practiced in youth: changes in the woman's body, for example, penetration can be painful because at menopause is there is no longer segregation of female hormones that stimulate sexual appetite and cause the lubrication of the vagina. In addition, the vagina begins to return inelastic, the lips of the vagina reduce their thickness, uterine contractions are annoying, and the clitoris, while maintaining the response to excitation, it contracts faster after orgasm. In the male changes also occur after the male menopause, and although many men maintain their sexual craving for a long time, there comes a time when the contacts close to the couple approaches are often more widely spaced, and can vary their pace and intensity.

Because of all these changes, sexuality can start to turn into something more sensual than sexual, they may begin to raise other kinds of emotions and feelings such as tenderness and a different way of experiencing love and affection. All this still is an important intimate and sexual sharing with partner, an activity that can provide very pleasing benefits, the problem is that oneself prevents sexual or sensual life continuing, when this can be as long as life existence. The continuity in intimate relationships as a source of enjoyment, discovery and expression of love after the elderly is neither bad nor should not cause undue distress or reject, this body communication remains, until one wants, one way to approach , knowledge and expression of affection.

The sensuality in the elderly:

• Helps the person to connect emotionally with the things around him/her.
• Causes feelings of courage and exploration.
• Renew the curiosity and creativity (the body and senses are the vehicle of experience and knowledge).
• The powers of the mind are kept alive for much longer.
• Improve health states, may even vanish ailments, aches, etc.
• Encourages the understanding and observation.
• It generates a nutritional approach to the mind.
• Avoid emotional coldness, bitterness and loneliness.

What can prevent the enjoyment of sensuality after the elderly?

• Taking drugs
• Illness, aches and pains
• Assuming that you cannot explore or discover new things with the body.
• Becoming susceptible and easily influenced by prejudice and denials that society imposes by what family, religion, the media are saying negatively about intimate relationships of women and older men.
• You assume that positions as love, sensuality and romance are just things of youth or to a certain time.

While everything changes, we must certainly assume that sex changes and becomes something else over time, but this should not be an obstacle to enjoy the bodily sensations, but a normal and natural process which can be combined with the state of insight and understanding which often lacks in youth, and can enrich far in meeting with the couple.

At this point, you can take further advantage as the body is not so distracted by sex scandals of fervent youth and can reach a softening of the way through the intimate encounter with the couple: the absence of heated sexuality can begin to give way to feelings such as tenderness, love that is not sexual, a different sensitivity of the senses, reflection, creativity and the rapprochement between two people without the erotic tinge, which can be enriched in every way the life of a partner.

These new modes of feeling about the couple are indeed those who can help keep the soul alive and burning, fertile, renewed, youthful and spirited. Enjoying a mature sexuality, with new nuances, it just requires an attitude, an intention for lighting the incense of the senses in other areas, to explore an emotion there is, perhaps, behind the fervent youth sexuality, which can be something very retro but food for the spirit and soul.
