LadyHeart -> RE: Submissiveness at age 60 plus (6/28/2007 4:01:12 PM)
|
I have met several pro Dommes who are in their 70's and are still going strong. I am 55, and submissive to my Master, who is 52. We had this conversation just the other day. Some vanilla friends were telling us that their sex life is over because the wife has reached menopause. We sat there with our jaws dropping, because they really believed it. They refused to believe that people in their 60's still have sex. Makes you wonder how many people like that are out there? They were otherwise educated and intelligent, but as another friend commented, people in that category often DON'T have conversations about sex with others, as it's regarded as "grubby."
We have no intention of slowing down, but we are making sure that we are fit and healthy enough to keep going. Many people in our age group and older are either physically challenged for anything as vigorous as BDSM, or mentally restricted by their belief systems. If they weren't already involved in the scene, they are not likely to find it in their later years, and if they already found it, they probably already have a partner.
Many older people would be embarrassed to put up a profile on a site like this. They look at all the young ones and just know that they are going to look disgusting to them. I know my daughter just has to think about people our age and she makes a retching noise and says: geriatric sex, ugh! Perhaps what will emerge is sites that are aimed at the Baby Boomers as they get older, so they don't have to look like paedophiles in a world of bright young things.
There are lots of older submissives out there, male and female, but they tend to have responsible places in the community, a need to be discrete, and a need to feel accepted. They won't necessarily be seeking all that on a large generic internet site.
