Almost half of respondents are satisfied with their sex life.

The majority of seniors believe that the aging of their partner's body has not changed anything in their sexuality. Only 20% regret their youthful antics.



One night stand, infidelity...

We also learn that seniors are curious: 60% of those questioned say they have had a one-night stand since they retired, and for 16% of them, infidelity is even recurrent, since they say they often let themselves be tempted…



Online dating enthusiasts

Concerning sexual practices and meeting methods, seniors are not lagging behind: 73% like to have sex in various places, 82% watch erotic films and 43% prefer to make love while being accompanied by other partners! And they are fans of online dating sites.



Finally, although the frequency of intercourse tends to decrease with age, 33% of seniors surveyed still say they make love at least 3 times a week, which is well above the average for all French people. , which is 8 or 9 monthly reports!
