This is the book my DD bought me after I had my hip replaced.

Ooh I should love to see the illustrations, light hearted or not.

How do you know they are just fantasies rather than personal experiences.😉🤭

Ugh, I don't even want to think about it. 🤢

I find it hard to believe that many over 60s are still interested in sex.

Why not? We,'re not dead yet!!😂

.....and some of us have done enough research to have a general idea what we're expecting our "life" to be like after we're dead...

....and that has certainly included asking if there's still such a thing as sex. Answer = yes if you want to.....

Mental note = on the "to do" list - at some point after reunions with people, exploring my immediate area, doing the Life Review, etc, etc.

I do hope it’s the OP actually wanting to have sex asap and not that she’s having pressure put on her by her husband ( memories of having a very grumpy unpleasant husband…now ex husband…after having a difficult childbirth ).

True dat - obviously.

I obviously wondered at still fancying a man who she says is very overweight - and then thought "Just because men I've known have always HAD to be slim - otherwise I wouldn't be interested" then I decided I must assume that there are women who fancy overweight men (as goodness knows - so many people, of both sexes, are very overweight these days).

Maybe it's just me that only two of the boyfriends I had were at all overweight and they didnt take long to analyse their chances of staying a boyfriend of mine before they lost that weight LOL.

But - obviously - I do hope indeed that wanting sex is coming from the OP herself and not from her husband. That would be a whole different ballgame if he's pressurising her obviously....

Spooning with him behind you if you want PIV? No leg opening required. Otherwise hands in both directions are probably the safest until you're fully fit again.

CariadAgain, slim people maybe nice to look at but they are not always nicer people. My husband isn't svelte (and never has been) but I fell in love with his personality which meant I actually found him attractive. Slim men often change and become larger. If you love them enough, they remain fanciable.

Wait otherwise you could end up having to go through it all again and he would have to go longer. Let him use his hands

I have to say that I'm so enjoying these posts! You do make me laugh (seriously!) about life!

In answer to the post about whether or not DH is pressuring me - no he isn't. He does have a higher drive and always has. I do my best to 'help' but if I really don't want to, I don't!

I'm glad you're not offended, ftm420.

For heaven’s sake! If you are that offended by somebody asking a perfectly reasonable question, just ignore it! OP is assuming somebody on here may have had a hip replacement and had the same experience. I’m quite disappointed with some of these replies. Good luck OP, sorry I can’t help 🤷🏻‍♀️

The advice is to wait till the anaesthetic has worn off.

Best suggestion so far!

"The advice is to wait till the anaesthetic has worn off.".

Hilarious! For me, after the anaesthetic wore off (it took 8 hours instead of the 4 it usually does) the pain was so intense I was almost scraping along the ceiling!

Sex was absolutely not on the agenda

I’ll eat it and enjoy it !!

Eat it?
