I was incredibly flattered when Joan Price, who wrote the first book about sex over 60, Naked at Our Age, got in touch about coming on the show to publicise the recently relaunched and expanded edition of the award-winning, Sex After Grief: Navigating your Sexuality after Losing your Beloved.Joan Price is a true trailblazer in the world of senior sexuality and I am very much following in her footsteps when it comes to tackling the taboos around sex in later life. During our conversation, Joan shared her inspiring journey into writing about senior sexuality, and why she has reworked her latest book, bravely tackling the challenges of navigating grief and intimacy. She offered some fantastic advice for anyone looking to embrace their sexuality and explore new relationships after a loss. We emphasised how crucial it is to have honest conversations about our desires, boundaries, and the exciting possibilities of reinventing our sexuality later in life. She will definitely be coming back onto Sex Advice for Seniors in the New Year!Here are some key takeaways from our conversation:* Grief can deeply affect our sexual desires and relationships, but it doesn't have to define them.* The pandemic has changed how we grieve and connect with others.* Clear communication about what we want and need in new relationships is essential.* Older people can discover new and fulfilling ways to explore their sexuality after the death of a partner.* Talking about death can actually help ease guilt for those left behind.* Approaching dating as a fun experiment rather than a heavy commitment can take the pressure off.Here's a quick rundown of the chapters we covered:00:00 - Introduction to Senior Sexuality06:00 - Navigating Grief and Sexuality11:55 - Understanding Sexual Urges After Loss17:55 - Communicating Desires and Boundaries24:01 - Reinventing Sexuality in Later Life30:07 - Dating in the Modern Agehttps://www.joanprice.com* Newly updated: Sex after Grief: Navigating Your Sexuality after Losing Your Beloved* Author of award-winning Naked at Our Age: Talking Out Loud about Senior Sex* Now on BlueSky https://bsky.app/profile/joanprice.bsky.social* For senior sex news and views, subscribe to Joan's newsletter: https://witty-feather-67285.myflodesk.com/sun5wbx417 Get full access to Sex Advice for Seniors at www.sexadviceforseniors.com/subscribe

A straight man was horrified to discover that he wasn't attracted to his hook-up when she took her clothes off. She extracted a confession from him, and he was honest about his sudden repulsion. Was this the right thing to do?  A woman would like to help her 70 year-old mother choose and navigate dating apps.

Sex After Grief: NavigatingYour Sexuality After Losing Your Beloved⁠  Sex is complicated enough when it's easy—but when we're in grief, it's especially mysterious and confusing. How do we nurture ourselves as sexual beings when we're grieving the death of a partner? Why does taking care of ourselves sexually even matter at a time when we'd rather hide under the covers and wail? What do we do with those sexual feelings that arise despite our misery? How do we know when it's time to open ourselves to a new sexual relationship, whether it's a friend with benefits or a new love connection? And how do we do it? Joan Price's award-winning Sex After Grief: Navigating Your Sexuality After Losing Your Beloved is the first book to address sex and grief together and treat sex as a normal, positive, life-affirming part of emerging from grief.

When people think about what their sex lives will look like as they get older, they usually don't see much to look forward to. They tend to think about problems that might arise and how sex may become more challenging. However, this line of thinking is all wrong. Sex can actually get better with age. In fact, many seniors report that they're having the best sex of their lives! And many of the tools and strategies that they're using can be helpful at any age for reigniting passion, improving sexual communication, and having more pleasurable sex than ever before. So today we're going to be exploring tips for better sex no matter where you are in your life. My guest is Joan Price, a self-described advocate for ageless sexuality. Joan is the author of four books about senior sex, including the award-winning  Naked at Our Age: Talking Out Loud about Senior Sex. She is a popular public speaker and sex educator who has been expanding our minds about sex and aging since 2005. Some of the topics we explore in this show include: How (and why) sex can get better with age. How to start healthy conversations about sex, whether you're in a new or long-term relationship. How to talk about sex with your doctor or healthcare provider. How redefining sex can open the door to more pleasure. What to do when the old ways of approaching sex just aren't working for you anymore. Why sex toys are an essential component of satisfying sex, especially as we get older.

Ever wondered why we glorify sex as being a practice for the teens and 20s, when research suggests people have better sex in their 40s, 50s and beyond?

Senior Sex Joan tells us that being a senior sex advocate is her third career. She lived as a high school English teacher until a car accident made her acutely aware of the privilege of being able to be and stay mobile. She tells us that insight inspired her to become a fitness trainer, group exercise instructor, and health and fitness writer. After falling into what she calls a “planet-shattering” romance at the age of 57, she understood that great sex was a crucial element of romance at any age. Her research into overcoming the challenges of senior sex and increasing the passion and intensity of senior sex revealed an empty market niche, encouraging her to jump into the market by sharing her own experiences and adding her own research to the topic of senior sex. She explores the misconception that sex is no longer experienced in old. She says that many believe that when people are older, they give up their sex lives and take up crocheting instead. “I have nothing against crocheting,” she says, “but it's not sex.” Challenges of Senior Sex Joan admits that senior sex is not the same as the sex people have in their twenties. Bodies age and change, and she suggests that our sexual history can impact our sex lives. She tells us that many people presume their sex lives are irrevocably declining when their knee arthritis prevents their favorite position, they take too long to orgasm, their erections are unreliable, penetration can become uncomfortable or intercourse may not feel as good as it used to. Joan believes that hurdles like these can be overcome when they're acknowledged out loud and discussed with our partners. She admits that sometimes these are medical issues, while others are best solved with creativity, research, and an enthusiastic partner's work. Responsive Desire Joan mentions that many elderly men and women insist that their desire to have sex is gone. To combat this belief, Joan describes writing a blog post on hotoctopuss.com about the difference between spontaneous desire and responsive desire. Many people believe that if spontaneous desire goes away, they no longer want to have sex, but that's inaccurate. Responsive desire, she explains, exists when your body begins to engage in sexual activities, and you slowly develop a real desire and passion for sex while you're engaging in the act. Spontaneous desire, where a person knows they're aroused and wants to have sex actively, often fades with age due to the hormones encouraging sexual reproduction declining. People who only experience responsive desire claim that they never really care about sex until they're actually doing it—at which point they care very much! Joan argues that this responsive desire is just as intense and valuable as spontaneous desire, it just appears during instead of prior to sex. Joan's webinars talk about communicating needs, knowing your needs, as well as scheduling sex, and creating responsive desire. She says that her books, blogs, and webinars help people respond to and understand their current needs and abilities, and guides people through the conversation. Benefits of Senior Sex Joan assures us that senior sex can be better than the sex young people have because the elderly know what they like sexually and in other areas, they've learned to communicate very well, and they've gained the perspective to understand many problems as easy to overcome or as entirely unproblematic. She implies that elderly men and women have outgrown the shame and reticence most young people feel about sex. In her work, she notices older people are better at truly focusing on the pleasure their bodies are capable of creating, while young people are often fretting about minor bodily imperfections or other insecurities instead of being fully in the present moment. That isn't to say no seniors have hang-ups about sex. Jane describes the prejudices her generation internalized about the topic. She informs us that her generation was told not to talk about or have sex until you're married and that women who don't have orgasms during intercourse—as most women can't—were called frigid. She says she is currently working on a webinar to work through this process and help seniors find the words to talk about attaining great sex. Scheduling Sex Joan believes that especially for couples without spontaneous sexual desire, it can be sexually rejuvenating to set a date for sex. She explains that seniors can see that date on the calendar and that will cause them to think about sex more often. Scheduling sex also allows for planning the event with special underwear or a romantic setting or any number of other, enjoyable ways to improve sex and foreplay. Joan suggests scheduling time to talk about sex and the physical and emotional changes that occur as people age. She insists that this can't be accusatory. It's meant to inform your partner about your changing body and needs and to invite your partner to do the same. Sex Surveys and Seniors Joan has been disappointed by surveys surrounding sex, because they often don't poll the elderly about their sex practices at all. When they do include the elderly, she mentions that they don't ask the right questions. Usually, she says, they ask whether you're sexually active, which is a nebulous term. She believes it would be illuminating if people writing surveys would ask what kinds of sexual activities people are utilizing at different ages. On air, she considers that she could do some of this research herself. Another worthwhile survey question Joan suggests is, “What is interfering with your sexual pleasure?” Joan suggests that trouble reaching orgasm, not having a partner, and not having a vibrator could all be included in such an open-ended question. Losing a Partner She says her book, Sex After Grief was written after she lost her great love. Joan found herself trying many, many things to try to come back to her sexuality after losing her husband. She recounts her journey and shares the methods others used to overcome grief. She explains that there are many ways to regain your sexuality after the death of a partner, and though no single path exists, this book will help you navigate the loss of your partner and the return to your sexual self with insight and compassion. Sex in Nursing Homes Joan has written some about sex inside nursing homes, where you're kept apart from others, cannot lock the door, and are given no privacy. She says there are a few nursing homes where sexual rights are a priority, based upon the belief that assisted living home residents should not be treated as prisoners. She says that it's important to research nursing and assisted living facilities to determine whether they have policies in place to enable sexual activity in their facilities. Sexual Rights She explains that it's important for the elderly to discuss what sexual rights their partners have before their mental state deteriorates or their body becomes too infirm to allow sexual activity. She says that if their partner can't provide sexual or romantic love, or they themselves are too senile to remember their spouse, it's important to make decisions about whether their partners finding love elsewhere is blessed or discouraged. Background Joan Price is an advocate of ageless sexuality encouraging seniors to reclaim and rejuvenate their sex lives. A public advocate of senior sex since 2005, Joan has written five books to help and sexually engage seniors: Sex After Grief: Navigating Your Sexuality After Losing Your Beloved, The Ultimate Guide to Sex After Fifty: How to Maintain—or Regain!—a Spicy, Satisfying Sex Life, Naked at Our Age: Talking Out Loud about Senior Sex, Better than I Ever Expected: Straight Talk about Sex After Sixty, and Ageless Erotica. Joan narrated and collaborated with Jessica Drake on her award-winning, explicit educational film “Jessica Drake's Guide to Wicked Sex: Senior Sex.” Joan maintains a newsletter and a blog on senior sex, and she created an entertaining, free webinar to encourage safer sex among the elderly.

It’s meant to inform your partner about your changing body and needs and to invite your partner to do the same.Sex Surveys and SeniorsJoan has been disappointed by surveys surrounding sex, because they often don’t poll the elderly about their sex practices at all. When they do include the elderly, she mentions that they don’t ask the right questions. Usually, she says, they ask whether you’re sexually active, which is a nebulous term.She believes it would be illuminating if people writing surveys would ask what kinds of sexual activities people are utilizing at different ages. On air, she considers that she could do some of this research herself.Another worthwhile survey question Joan suggests is, “What is interfering with your sexual pleasure?” Joan suggests that trouble reaching orgasm, not having a partner, and not having a vibrator could all be included in such an open-ended question.Losing a PartnerShe says her book, Sex After Grief was written after she lost her great love. Joan found herself trying many, many things to try to come back to her sexuality after losing her husband. She recounts her journey and shares the methods others used to overcome grief. She explains that there are many ways to regain your sexuality after the death of a partner, and though no single path exists, this book will help you navigate the loss of your partner and the return to your sexual self with insight and compassion.Sex in Nursing HomesJoan has written some about sex inside nursing homes, where you’re kept apart from others, cannot lock the door, and are given no privacy. She says there are a few nursing homes where sexual rights are a priority, based upon the belief that assisted living home residents should not be treated as prisoners. She says that it’s important to research nursing and assisted living facilities to determine whether they have policies in place to enable sexual activity in their facilities.Sexual RightsShe explains that it’s important for the elderly to discuss what sexual rights their partners have before their mental state deteriorates or their body becomes too infirm to allow sexual activity. She says that if their partner can’t provide sexual or romantic love, or they themselves are too senile to remember their spouse, it’s important to make decisions about whether their partners finding love elsewhere is blessed or discouraged.BackgroundJoan Price is an advocate of ageless sexuality encouraging seniors to reclaim and rejuvenate their sex lives. A public advocate of senior sex since 2005, Joan has written five books to help and sexually engage seniors: Sex After Grief: Navigating Your Sexuality After Losing Your Beloved, The Ultimate Guide to Sex After Fifty: How to Maintain—or Regain!—a Spicy, Satisfying Sex Life, Naked at Our Age: Talking Out Loud about Senior Sex, Better than I Ever Expected: Straight Talk about Sex After Sixty, and Ageless Erotica.Joan narrated and collaborated with Jessica Drake on her award-winning, explicit educational film “Jessica Drake’s Guide to Wicked Sex: Senior Sex.” Joan maintains a newsletter and a blog on senior sex, and she created an entertaining, free webinar to encourage safer sex among the elderly.Resources for Joan Price:https://joanprice.com/https://joanprice.com/bloghttps://youtu.be/efGXHzf19Bshttp://eepurl.com/cx2Nabhttps://seniorplanet.org/author/joan-price/https://www.hotoctopuss.com/senior-sex/More info:Book and New Course – https://sexwithoutstress.comWeb – https://www.intimacywithease.com/Sex Health Quiz – http://sexhealthquiz.com/Better Sex with Jessa Zimmermanhttps://businessinnovatorsradio.com/better-sex/Source: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/134-senior-sex-joan-price

Senior SexJoan tells us that being a senior sex advocate is her third career. She lived as a high school English teacher until a car accident made her acutely aware of the privilege of being able to be and stay mobile. She tells us that insight inspired her to become a fitness trainer, group exercise instructor, and health and fitness writer. After falling into what she calls a “planet-shattering” romance at the age of 57, she understood that great sex was a crucial element of romance at any age. Her research into overcoming the challenges of senior sex and increasing the passion and intensity of senior sex revealed an empty market niche, encouraging her to jump into the market by sharing her own experiences and adding her own research to the topic of senior sex.She explores the misconception that sex is no longer experienced in old. She says that many believe that when people are older, they give up their sex lives and take up crocheting instead. “I have nothing against crocheting,” she says, “but it’s not sex.”Challenges of Senior SexJoan admits that senior sex is not the same as the sex people have in their twenties. Bodies age and change, and she suggests that our sexual history can impact our sex lives.She tells us that many people presume their sex lives are irrevocably declining when their knee arthritis prevents their favorite position, they take too long to orgasm, their erections are unreliable, penetration can become uncomfortable or intercourse may not feel as good as it used to. Joan believes that hurdles like these can be overcome when they’re acknowledged out loud and discussed with our partners. She admits that sometimes these are medical issues, while others are best solved with creativity, research, and an enthusiastic partner’s work.Responsive DesireJoan mentions that many elderly men and women insist that their desire to have sex is gone. To combat this belief, Joan describes writing a blog post on hotoctopuss.com about the difference between spontaneous desire and responsive desire. Many people believe that if spontaneous desire goes away, they no longer want to have sex, but that’s inaccurate. Responsive desire, she explains, exists when your body begins to engage in sexual activities, and you slowly develop a real desire and passion for sex while you’re engaging in the act.Spontaneous desire, where a person knows they’re aroused and wants to have sex actively, often fades with age due to the hormones encouraging sexual reproduction declining. People who only experience responsive desire claim that they never really care about sex until they’re actually doing it—at which point they care very much! Joan argues that this responsive desire is just as intense and valuable as spontaneous desire, it just appears during instead of prior to sex.Joan’s webinars talk about communicating needs, knowing your needs, as well as scheduling sex, and creating responsive desire. She says that her books, blogs, and webinars help people respond to and understand their current needs and abilities, and guides people through the conversation.Benefits of Senior SexJoan assures us that senior sex can be better than the sex young people have because the elderly know what they like sexually and in other areas, they’ve learned to communicate very well, and they’ve gained the perspective to understand many problems as easy to overcome or as entirely unproblematic. She implies that elderly men and women have outgrown the shame and reticence most young people feel about sex. In her work, she notices older people are better at truly focusing on the pleasure their bodies are capable of creating, while young people are often fretting about minor bodily imperfections or other insecurities instead of being fully in the present moment.That isn’t to say no seniors have hang-ups about sex. Jane describes the prejudices her generation internalized about the topic. She informs us that her generation was told not to talk about or have sex until you’re married and that women who don’t have orgasms during intercourse—as most women can’t—were called frigid. She says she is currently working on a webinar to work through this process and help seniors find the words to talk about attaining great sex.Scheduling SexJoan believes that especially for couples without spontaneous sexual desire, it can be sexually rejuvenating to set a date for sex. She explains that seniors can see that date on the calendar and that will cause them to think about sex more often. Scheduling sex also allows for planning the event with special underwear or a romantic setting or any number of other, enjoyable ways to improve sex and foreplay.Joan suggests scheduling time to talk about sex and the physical and emotional changes that occur as people age.

Warning:  This episode on senior sex obviously contains adult material. Today my guest was Joan Price, who is a senior sex guru.  And as you know, sex is an important part of the retirement lifestyle. Joan, who is an “advocate for ageless sexuality”, has written numerous books, and in fact, she has been called the “senior sexpert”.   When I met her online I knew that I just had to have her on the show! We discussed the fact that NO, we don’t have to sit in a separate bathtub holding hands with our partner (think Cialis commercials) and in fact, we don’t even need to have partner at all!  Think about it, if you are a woman, chances are your partner (if you have one) is going to predecease you if you are around the same age since women live longer than men. Senior Sex?  I have so many questions! * What do you think about drugs like Cialis and Viagra? * Should these senior sex drugs be covered by Medicare? * What made you start writing about senior sex in the first place? * How can we spice up our sex lives? * Why do we tend to put our sex lives on hold as we get older? * What do we do if we don’t have a partner (Joan has a lot to say about this subject!) * If you’re shy, what do you do? * How can you talk to your doctor and what should you say? * What do you do with all those adult toys after you review them? We talked about the fact that she writes reviews of sex toys from a senior perspective. I asked her what the difference would be between a non-senior and a senior perspective and she was happy to tell me. * We lose sensitivity as we age, so senior sex toys should be really powerful. * For the same reason, they have to go a long time. We don’t want the battery dying at a critical moment. * An adult toy should be comfortable for arthritic hands (ergonomic). * The controls should be easy for aging eyes to see. * We need to be able to hold on to them with slippery fingers, so they should be easy to hold. * These devices should be made with non-toxic materials. There are no laws governing this like there are for dog toys or baby toys.  (Who knew?) * Aging women may prefer slimmer senior sex toys. Joan has several books including: * Ultimate Guide to Sex After 50: How to Maintain – or Regain! – a Spicy, Satisfying Sex Life; * Naked at Our Age: Talking Out Loud  * Better Than I Ever Expected: Straight Talk about Sex After Sixty She also offers classes and webinars, and you can find out more information on her websites: www.joanprice.com  or  www.nakedatourage.com Download today's FREEBIE: 33 reasons that sex is good for you (especially at our age) HERE. Special Thanks to: * Angie Strehlow who helps us get great guests that help us with our retirement lifestyle while keeping everything on track * Les Briney who edits the show and makes my guests and me sound terrific * Lesinda Tubalado who helps keep the website up to date * YOU the listener for letting other people know about this show by sharing on social media, and telling your friends about it This post on Retirement Lifestyle first appeared on http://RockYourRetirement.com
