Description

Riki Slayday, Martin Sliwinski, and David Almeida trace how sexual satisfaction shifts across adult life in a 2023 conference paper. Midlife brings many sexual changes, yet how contentment moves with age, and when men and women part ways, was little studied.

The team used three waves of a national midlife study with 2,348 adults. Each rated the sexual side of life from zero, the worst, to ten, the best. Scores fell in a straight line until the early sixties, then dropped faster. Men and women matched until about age forty-five. From then on men scored higher for almost forty years. Past age eighty-four, women edged ahead. The authors say midlife is a key window for care.
