Why your sex life at 40 is much better than you think!

The moaning is always great. Not because you're having such a good time and spending time with your lover. No, it's more about aches and pains, everyday life and the fact that everything used to be better anyway and had much more spice. Take sex, for example. In the twenties, people still enjoyed themselves in the most unusual places with their boyfriends or short-term acquaintances. Today, that's somehow no longer the case. But why is that? Sex doesn't necessarily get worse with age, does it?

Does sex get more boring with age? Quite the opposite, says ORION blogger Mark.

Sex is good for you!

Of course, you can say that the body degrades here and there over time. And yes: when you were twenty, your skin may have been a little firmer and you felt more attractive. But that's not always what sex is about. It's more about having fun, getting your money's worth together, doing something physically beneficial. And the foundation for this is that you know yourself well enough and know what you like and what you don't like. You don't necessarily have to experiment all the time (yes, it shouldn't be boring either). You've found your sexual place and simply know what you need.

Get out of your head and into your body!

Maybe you just can't manage to have sex three times a night anymore. But you don't have to, because sex is not a competitive sport. The advantage of getting older is that sex simply becomes more intimate through experience. You take what you want. You let go and are completely with yourself and your partner. Why worry about whether there's one more wrinkle on your stomach? It doesn't matter! Incidentally, most women who are asked about their sex life report the same thing.

Sexual satisfaction increases

Women between the ages of 40 and 50 are the most satisfied when it comes to sex. And this is no coincidence. It is at this age in particular that women feel most comfortable in their own skin during sex. Their experience and composure mean that they no longer have to think so much about what might look "wrong" about them. That's just wonderful, if you ask me. One thing that could easily be passed on to the younger generation. Because the physicality of sex is simply much more intense when you don't waste time thinking about such things.

Get what you need!

What exactly does that mean for you? Well, realize that you are in the sexual prime of your life right now. This is no joke! Be honest with yourself for a change: Yes, sex was very exciting in the beginning because it was something new. But hasn't it just got better over time and with increasing serenity? Be aware of that! And make the most of this time for yourself!
