Hey, if ya can't condescend to senior citizens...?

[KarlInOhio]

Am I the only one who thought of XXX42 in 20 years?

Excuse me while I get out an icepick and try to poke out that part of my brain.

[Physicist]

Comment. This story is sickening. Tothink that the nurses and staff would be helping the paralyzed patients have sex is a but one more example of good resources being utilized for bad purposes.

What makes this a bad purpose again?

[Zipporah]

... what is that old saying..? Where's there's snow on the mountain.. there's fire in the furnace.

[em2vn]

You are kidding aren't you? What do you mean by bad purposes? I assmume you want people to go into nursing homes and die as rapidly as possible. Assisting someone to live doesn't mean assisting them to not have sexual intercourse.

A study of healthy people aged from 80 to 102 found that 88 percent of men fantasized about sex, 66 percent had coitus and 72 percent used self-stimulation, while 72 percent of women fantasized about sex, 38 percent had coitus and 40 percent used self-stimulation.

Well, I won't have to waste money getting dinner tonight. Lovecraft could only dream of writing something so horrifying.

How much do you figure you have to pay someone to be a spotter?

[kms61]

Should you be fortunate enough to reach that age I suspect you won't find the thought so horrifying.

Some of the posts on this thread are beyond belief.

"maybe Viagra will help us out on this one.

Well you know why they started giving Viagra to men in nursings homes don't you?

It keeps them from rolling off of the bed.

[Cedric]

I think kms61 just told you to beat it.

[exile]

well, there goes dinner

....A study of healthy people aged from 80 to 102....

?

I find the whole thing condescending as hell........as are most of the responses here. These are ADULTS, and old or not, they sure as hell don't need anyone's permission to have sex. Fercryinoutloud...................pathetic.

Obviously you've never seen any of the sodomy or porn threads.

To many Freepers, sex is always subject to approval by someone else.

[BJungNan]

Sex in nursing homes? I've tried it everywhere else, sure, why not!

[DannyTN]

"well, there goes dinner " lol

"There really isn't much sex talk here," he said. "The focus of residents is really elsewhere. Their focus is more on food."

LOL!

 

"Sex is very natural, it is healthy, it is good for our lifestyle and residents of nursing homes have sexual needs and desires just like other individuals," he said.

In one instance, Sammons said, two residents had fallen in love and gotten married.

I think that's wonderful.

Allow me to be the first person to nominate this post as the nastiest subject EVER

And allow me to say that you are afraid of sex. You must have walked in on your Dad and Mom and have thought it "nasty" ever since.

There is nothing wrong or shameful in elderly persons enjoying sex, as a nursing home resident, or otherwise.

[Norse]

No i'm not afraid of sex. And I never said that there is anything wrong with old, wrinkly people having sex. I just don't want to hear, think about it, or see it happening.

Nursing Home Women Gone Wild!!!!!

You know your grandmother is getting her freak on when you visit her and she greets you with, "Beeyatch, my tizzy here, y'all wanna go fly solo, on the no-no, on the hose nose bagose. Ya know I'm down wit dat!"

Maybe that's Snoop Dawg's grandma. <\sarcasm>

....There is nothing wrong or shameful in elderly persons enjoying sex, as a nursing home resident, or otherwise....

Except if the prune juice kicks-in before the viagra wears- off!!!

[Richard Kimball]

He also wrote in his book, "How to live to be 100", I don't do sex anymore, after 80, you realize you're just embarassing yourself.
