If the Australian government paid some college idiot to determine this finding, they could have saved a boatload of money, given me half and I could have told them this. Duhhh!!! Of course old men want more sex. We're old, not freaking dead.

Headline should have read: Old Men out of Luck.

>>Older men want more sex<<

They sort of left out the rest of the sentence: “with much younger women.”

Oh geez, they paid money for this? Men are hard wired for sex no matter the age.

If you’re an ordinary man, then yes.

On the other hand, I read that Hugh Hefner says sex doesn’t interest him as much as it used to and that he often prefers to play dominoes with the bunnies instead of hanky-panky.

I guess when you’ve had all the women you could ever want for decades, it gets a little tiring.

More than 40 percent of the men who had not had sex recently said they were not interested.

The problem for the ones who are interested is that 90+ percent of the women of similar age are not interested -- or at least not interested in sick, old men.

It's time for the Orgasmatron to hit the market.

Sounds like the joke about the geezer who got a surprise for his 90th birthday.

There he was, lying in bed, when the bedroom door opened and a gorgeous blond with world class hooters comes prancing in.

“Hi there,” the young lady, cooed. “In honor of your birthday, your son sent me to give you some super sex!”

“Thanks Missy,” the geezer replied.

“I’ll take the soup.”

Heh, Ernest Borgnine says that one of the things that keeps him energized is masturbating a lot. I somehow don’t think he’s getting too much out of his wife these days.

I refer to it as prostrate cleansing. It sounds much more acceptable that way.
