Does masturbation decline past 60?

I am male, early 70's so the question of whether ageing leads to declining sexual interest and activity naturally interests me. I have my own opinions and experience but wonder what other men and women think about this. Does masturbation decline and, if so, why and does it change and how?

 

I'm 70 and my masturbation, sexual interests and sexual desires have increased with age. The last years of my marriage were fairly sexless and I resorted to masturbation when necessary. Now that I have been divorced and alone for quite some time masturbation has become a normal and regular every day pastime.

 

I'm 66. My cock's become rather unreliable, and sometimes I have little or no interest in sex.

oh how life changes us…
I am 63 and living with a menopausal partner. Between that and meds she has little to no interest in sex the past couple years.
Masturbation has now become the go to for my sexual release.

I still look at strange ass with desire, I still get morning wood, but the frequency of masturbation seems to have declined a little. However, it was daily for decades so a few times a week may be not such a decline for some.

 

I think it not only decrease, but also increase, I have masturbated more than 60 years , and now I have more lust to daily. Sex fantasy, and imagination help me to get hard to cum finally.

 

Hey keep it up your not over the hill yet lol

 

nope.

 

I'm rapidly heading to 60 and I find I'm masturbating more now than ever as well as slipping my other half a length of my penis at any chance

 

86 and yes it does decline and so does the genitalia.

Not by a huge amount in the decades after 60 but still noticable. At my peak at age 16 to 19 I was pulling myself off 3 times a day. By 20 it was down to twice a day and then I was getting sex so the need dropped off a bit. I had a VERY active sex life for 30+ years and only needed to pull myself off occasionaly.

Now I live alone and need to do the deed twice a week.

 

Decline started around 2 years ago, gradually
I could do it every day unless I was with a woman
Now it’s every 2-3 days and it takes longer to get hard, takes longer to orgasm. If it didn’t I would edge myself more, I worry about losing the erection and not orgasm

yet last time I went for a massage with the happy ending it took little time to reach orgasm
I was going to get edged but I got too close on the 4th time. So I told her not to stop
I don’t get those massages often

 

60 and no. In the importance of things, especially in my marriage, sex is not that high of a priority at all. Comfort, affection and being together all are way more important.
But masturbation and my drive has not diminished, I masturbate more now than 5 years ago when we were more active. (She is 5 years post menopause, so her drive now is practically zero)

Up until about a month ago I was masturbating frequently. Every shower and a few times a week up in bed before going to sleep or even in the morning before I got out of bed. But in the last month, anything out of the shower has stopped, and even shower jerks have slowed down. Not sure why, the interest just isn't there. I'm about to turn 62, and I have heard that it declines, but I didn't expect it to drop so dang fast.

 

Lol you need to find better inspiration. I still jerk off after reading or thinking about things. Get ride of stress

 

LoL - yeah, I think it is work stress. Been a very grooling year so far. Hoping to retire here in a few months, so maybe after that it will get better. At least I hope so.

 

It will be, now that I am retired I think more about sex

 

Not me
