Let's Talk Sex

Let’s talk sex. Now, don’t look at me like that. It’s nothing to be embarrassed about. Who doesn’t like a little sex talk every now and then? Sex definitely sells. If it didn’t there would be no 900 numbers. And then there is the fact that porn sites outnumber non pornographic sites five to one.

Prostitution is often referred to as the oldest profession in the world. It has been said by “some” that a man will always pay for sex. Some by leaving money on the night stand, while others pay for it in mortgages, car payments and electric bills. No matter what your opinion is on the subject, sex is a major part of our experience on this jacked up planet.

However, I have come to the conclusion that sex is for the young. Now, before those of you who are in the third or fourth age bracket, 40 and above, start sending me hate mail consider, the following statistics.

• According to a 2003 survey conducted by the Center for Disease Control, nearly 50% of all U.S. students will lose their virginity before leaving high school. I guess not everyone does it after all. (That last comment was meant for my two sons.)
• Adults between the ages of 18-29 year olds have sex an average of 112 times per year,
• The thirty something crowd averages having sex 86 times a year.
• Those between the ages of 40-49 average doing the “wild thing” 69 times a year.. (Piccinino, LJ, Mosher, WD. Trends in contraceptive method use in the United States: 1982-1994. 1998. Family Planning Perspectives. Vol. 30(1): 4-10 & 6, Table 1. )

Just because you are a AARP card carrying member does not mean that your sexual interest diminishes. While visiting with a gentleman in his 90’s I asked him at what age do people stop having sex. With a gleam in his eye and a smirk on his face he replied, “Heck, son, you’ll have to ask someone older than me to find out.”

Whichever group you find yourself in, most of us enjoy sex whether through participation or discussion. When I first got married sex was the very reason I did not want a television in the bedroom. There would be no sex and violence in my bedroom unless I was the responsible party.

All of that being said, I would like to share with you some interesting facts that I have discovered concerning sex. Of course, what would an interesting fact be without my…uh-hmm…input. So if you’re ready, let’s talk sex.
