| Earlier this month I had a conversation on an airplane with a woman who works in the medical field. We were talking about the well-being of older people when she mentioned an announcement her elderly relative made during a family gathering. The 80-something lady was upset about a study showing that old people still have sex, a study like the one that came out last month in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM). Such studies aren’t fair, she said, “because they stop with people in their 80s. What about the 90s? My boyfriend is 93 and he can’t keep his hands off me!” Apparently the 93-year-old Romeo was making full use of today's armamentarium of drugs, especially impotence pills, to get all jiggy with his octogenarian babe. My seatmate said this relative instantly became her role model, and I chimed in with something insightful like, “How cool is that?” But then I recalled what happened when MSNBC.com ran a picture to accompany the story reporting on the recent NEJM study. Much to my surprise, some readers were offended by the photograph of two old people kissing. “Perverts,” one reader said. Another declared that the “picture of two old people kissing on your home page is disgusting … It makes me want to puke.” Really? Disgusting? An upchuck? Because two people were kissing? |
