Of course, the study found that the frequency of sex decreased with age—apparently it’s easier to be frisky in your 70s than in your 90s—but even by the over-90s, sex was still considered “somewhat important.”

“Men who have partners versus the ones who do not usually have a much different sexual profile and a much happier one," says Pepper Schwartz, the Sexuality, Love and Relationship Ambassador for the AARP. (We love her job title.) “Access is the issue, not desire.”
