do men lose interest in sex as they grow older?

I am posing this question because I find less interest in sex now compare to a decade ago. I used to chase women like kites on the beach. I just don't feel any interest in pursuing them at bars anymore.

Am I losing it ?

 

[Warrior74]

No. otherwise you wouldn't have 80 year old men dying and leaving fortunes to stupid playboy models.

Maybe you should meet women outside of bars. Probably just burned out on the bar scene.

In my case it's now way more about qaulity, than qauntity. Back in the day if it was female and breathing, I'd hit it. I'd also play all the required games to do so.

For years now I've realized that sex is just an aspect of my life, not the reason I'm alive.

I no longer want to drive every new car I see, or have the latest electronic device that just came out, or hit every piece of tail that walks by.

I now drive the best car I can afford, and don't wake up in the morning, look over and wonder WTF was I thinking?????

When I do choose to have sex, it's with a woman who is the total package. Looks, style, and brains. I'm still VERY interested in sex with that caliber of woman.

Sounds like you're more selective, not lower sex drive. I believe tastes get more refined as you gain more experience, ie older.

Sex? No.....I can still fukk like a porn star.

Women? That's a different story. I am not NEARLY as interested in women themselves as i was when I was 20.

 

[speakeasy]

Sex drive lowers with age. It will probably never go to zero unless you live to be 115 or something, but don't think it's going to be the same as it was when you were 17.

I'm turning 33 next month. It's hard to get an erection just from thinking about sex anymore. When I was a teen, just seeing a girl in a form fitting clothes could give me a boner.

 

[Juando]

Same interest in sex as ever, more discriminating about women.

Twenty years ago I made a commitment to staying healthy, being in shape, and I believe that has made a difference.

My new 31 y.o. actress/dancer gf can't get enough of me and I attribute it to the above, combined with the right outlook.

It's not rocket science.

Yes. But.

I don't get a boner, usually, JUST by seeing a girl in a revealing outfit.

BUT, I will get a boner if that girl is sitting with me, flirting, and I'm thinking I'm three steps away from getting her into bed.

That, my friend, is a wiley boner, rather than a willey-nilley boner- much more efficient, on purpose, and targeted toward a satisfying conclusion.

Interesting distinction.

 

[sodbuster]

I'm almost 50,I'm still interested in sex,but I'm not going to put up with the BS I used to to get it. The women now? hard to find many I'd want. If it was sex alone with no attached relationship? maybe I'd be more interested, but "free" sex isnt

 

[Scaramouche]

Dear Picard,
Some very good observations here....living in the same,by your standards,small community for most of my life,I would say the most promiscuous kids at 16 are now the several times divorced but still sexually active old guys....I still enjoy svx on a daily basis if I can get it and have no problems keeping it up,thanks to a natural diet and working out....sure it is not as deleriously pleasurable as in the past but still the greatest pleasure in life....As to other guys my age,many are falling by the wayside,prostate problems start to kick in at 50 or so and back and hip problems in the manual workers,also some fellows (Surprisingly many of the fittest and finest looking)just lose their Libido....at 50 most Caucasian women start to cut down on Svx and so it becomes a case of use it or lose it...The good news is that ones choice gets bigger than ever,ones ability to sort out the bad eggs and time wasters improves,and that together with not having to worry about Premature Ejaculation makes life for a philanderer very interesting So hit that gym,keep the weight down and eat naturally.

do men lose interest in sex as they grow older?

Nah, but I am not interested in having sex with women who are as old as me...ewww ! ha ha !

 

[Matt Rogers]

If you are losing interest in sex as you age the causes are more likely to be any number of the following:

Stress (a huge libido killer)
Weight gain (fat men have lower testosterone levels)
Lack of exercise (good for fighting stress, keeping your weight down and getting the blood flowing)
Too much boozing (when you are young it doesn't have an effect but if you are drinking regularly that will cut your sex drive way down as you age)
Either too much or too little sex....Chinese medicine thinks in your thirties three times a week is best, compared to every day when you are 18. But equally you don't use it you lose it.

Cue the music- "Vivaaaa Viagra!......Vivaaaa Viagra!"

Seriously, when you get older and lose the "marriage goal" mentality and stop becoming dependent upon women for your happiness, you begin to realize that women come and go, they eat, sleep, and sh!t like the rest of us, they cheat just like men do, they are sneaky and manipulative, and most of them don't look nearly as hot the morning after.

When you start to see women for what they are as opposed to the fantasy society has sold us, you realize that a lot of the time, the BS you have to put up with isn't worth the reward (sex) a lot of the time. Sometimes it's better to focus on other things and wait for the low maintenance freebees that come along from time to time. Sometimes you meet an interesting woman and you might put a little more time into her.

"Pu$$y as a goal" is just as soul sapping and energy consuming as "marriage as a goal". My goal is ME. Women and sex are secondary.

 

[Night Owl]

I must be the odd one out - at nearly 50 I get boners all the time - and now I don't chase after it, they chase after me. I am quite a catch, but play extremely hard to get.. hence I can have it any time I want. Sex is an itch, and there is always some hot babe out there dying to itch it for you.

The only thing that will stop me is the coffin lid, which will not before I reach 99 plus !!

 

[Latinoman]

Men SHOULD not lose interest in sex as they grow old.

Sadly...women do lose interest (menopause) as they grow old.

 

[RedPill]

Warning: Viagra won't make your old wife hot again. Make sure you're healthy enough for sexual activity and not just a lazy piece of sh1t with low testosterone. Ask your doctor if you take nitrates for chest pains, as this may result in an unsafe drop in blood pressure - nobody wants to die with a boner.

 

[lookyoung]

Men don't lose interest in sex as they age but sex is a little different when your younger. Lets face it guys you can't compare the sex drive of an average 21 year old to the average 41 year old. When I have sex with a girl now and I am 32 I average 2 nuts. I take a lot longer to ***. When I was 21 I would average 3-4 times. I would even *** keep my dik in the girls pu$$y and get it hard after 15 seconds and fuk her for the next 45 minutes. If I bust now I doubt I would be able to get it hard that fast like I was when I was 21. It would probably take me at least 2 minutes as opposed to 15 seconds.

That being said I think I am a better lover now than I was when I was 21.

That's the key point. As we become more mature, we just don't go through all the BS that we used to. We do either of these things:

[1] Overcome sexual desire, putting out minds in other things, and only let it out when we are in the appropriate situation (e.g., when we meet an interesting woman that shows good IOI.)

[2] Get married or into some sort of long term serious relationship, and we quench our desire through her

[3] Take the Charlie Sheen route and decide that sex is just a pleasurable activity, like skiing or playing video games, and hire women to pleasure us until we find a woman meeting the requirements of [2]

But the key is that we become no longer ruled by our sex drive. Instead we rule over it.

 

[Rollo Tomassi]

To this day I'm baffled that the pharmaceutical industry would ever invest in developing drugs that would make guys hornier than they already are. I understand Viagra helps men with erectile dysfunction, but c'mon.

Humanity would be far better served by developing a drug to increase a woman's libido that wouldn't have the side effect of having them grow mustaches or turn their ****s into penises.

Edit: Of course I suppose we've made prior attempts in our past,...Tequila comes to mind,...
