Description
Routledge Couple Sexuality After 60 1st Edition 2021 Softbound by Barry McCarthy, Emily McCarthy
* Encourages the reader to embrace sexuality and aging, and to enjoy intimate and pleasurable experiences throughout their aging years. * Challenges two embedded cultural myths: that people over 60 should not or cannot be sexual, and that the best way to be sexual is by emphasizing eroticism and 'kinky' sex. * Presents a healthy model of sexuality that values desire/pleasure/eroticism/satisfaction, and prioritises pleasure-oriented touching, rather than individual sexual performances. * Covers topics which are often of concern, such as using medical interventions, illnesses/disabilities, desire and satisfaction, and coming to terms with the 'new normal'. * Written by highly esteemed, husband-and-wife writing team, Barry and Emily McCarthy.
