Dear community of #Silverbloggers I greet you thanking to be here for the first time.
And I want to do it daring to speak about a topic that it is perhaps a taboo among women of my age.
Sexuality in maturity: a trip of tenderness and authenticity
There is something that has always concerned me, and on several occasions I have commented with my friends and it is that in a mean while we are advancing in life some ladies lose interest in sexuality. Great mistake of many because sexuality is transformed and redimensioned, we can even make new dimensions of meaning that often go unnoticed, especially in women over 60 years.
It is painful to see how society stigmatizes sexuality in the elderly, as if from a certain age intimacy and desire had to go out.I have decided to recognize that my sexuality is an integral part of who I am, regardless of age.
Dear friends, sexuality is not limited to the physical act, we learn that from the first classes in school.
It is much more than that and there lies everything, to understand that it is an expression of our intimacy and love.
I want to tell you that at this stage of life, I have experienced changes in my body, menopause has come to make its own affecting my sexual health for a while.They were changes challenging me, and I decided not to see them as the end of desire.
But quite the opposite, I began to take care of my sexuality and my health at all.
In addition to the doctor visits, the communication was the key.
I looked for ways to share my desires, fears and expectations with my partner and we set an atmosphere of trust. I did not lock myself but took out the light and thus the affective ties were strengthened.
With my closer friends we have decided to make a circle to share issues like this; sexuality in maturity is a stage of many possibilities that we must dismiss.What a better way to start talking about it without complexity. And start accepting and celebrating our sexuality, regardless of age. It is the greatest act of self -esteem.
Thank you for reading my post. I invite you to continue addressing our sexuality with tenderness, knowledge and, above all, with authenticity.
