Both men and women are sexual creatures, regardless of age.
In a man, hormones don't decline much with age. Men can have strong libidos well into their 80s and 90s. My father was 67 when I was born. Older men have sex because older women are often available (see below).
In women, hormones do decrease after menopause, but any fear of pregnancy is gone and that feeling of freedom makes some women more desirous of sex. Plus, many older women are widows, and no longer have the restriction of marriage on their minds.
I won't name names, but there's an elder living area (people over 50) in one of the Southern US States that has a very high incidence of STDs, because its residents are so sexually active.0 1 0 0@aviatortom There is an elder living area that you heard of with a high incidence of STDs? Man those folks need to be wearing condoms! LOL...
@AviatorTom Uh, oh. Lol
@ArrowheadSW The county officials have actually given the community cases of free condoms... the residents don't use them

What do you think? The same reason young people have sex. It feels good. The sex drive never goes away. There's a joke that the big secret of middle-aged parents is how much sex they have since the children left.

I'm not sure but good question! I always thought older men don't want sex because their bodies hurt or they have other things to do during retirement. But from my personal experience they always have horny thoughts, they never turn down sex of it's offered and if they are having sex it's like all their stamina issues go away. So I think it's safe to say at least in old men that their hormones don't decline much with age.

3 7It is nice and it feels good?
If you mean why we kept that biological instinct despite not being particularly fertile anymore I'd warrant there just wasn't any manifested benefit in losing it. Losing it didn't make people fantastically better caretakers or anything. It isn't as if older people lack hormones. They might not be running rampant as in the teenage years but they do not stop existing.0 2 0 0Because they want to. Seriously, why wouldn't they? It feels good, it's an important social bonding tool, and without it, we wouldn't have the Golden Girls.
