Are you

No I'm not!! Getting STI's I mean!

I don't look very sexual when I study myself in the mirror so they must be getting me mixed up with someone else

Whitewave. You made me giggle cheered me up no end

What about the over 70's? How are we doing? Are we just as bad?

(I am not answering any questions myself (an enigmatic one))

I believe Rampant Rabbits are very popular - and no risk of STIs!

As a youngster I look forward to reaching 60 and finding out...

Oh yes jings it insinuated that the over70's were worse. I missed the swinging 60's (just) but I may be in time for this OAP sexual revolution. I just hope I can muster the energy! (Unlikely)

Really?? Can't wait to be 60 then!

I think I was there first time round and I don't think they are talking about me this time around!!

Am trying to think of anyone I know over 60 who it might be, and failing miserably. BiL was very keen but his pacemaker let him down, I think he wore it out.

Wore what out?

Makes you wonder where they got the sample they used. They didn't send a questionnaire to Gransnet. I wonder where all these over-60s get the energy. Just wait till they have to work until they have to work until they're 67.

Somehow lost concentration and repeated myself there, but you know what I meant!

anno it must be the subject matter fuddling your brain

If only !

Kiora, if you were 60 last year, when you joined, how can you have 'missed' the 'swinging 60s'?

Just a bit too young to appreciate them? I was gutted when I finally made it to Carnaby Street in the 70s and it was very sedate. There were amazing photos on the walls of people in surreal outfits walking along the Kings Road, nothing like what was worn by then. I spent all my pocket money sneaking up to London on the train, hoping to see something exciting going on! I had been travelling up pretty regularly at weekends for three years, going to all-day clubs, when my father gave me a lecture on the dangers of going up to London should I ever feel the need, because I was liable to get picked up, drugged and become a white slave. I didn't like to tell him that I probably knew more than him about what and who to avoid by then.

My sister was born the same year as Kiora. She thinks of herself as a seventies person as she was at school in the sixties and never had any money to spend.

I'm 66 and 'Yes' but not the STIs. Talking about Rampant Rabbits, a work mate of mine was bemoaning the fact that she was single and frustrated. Another collegue offered her the loan of her Rampant Rabbit as 'I am now in a very satisfying relationship and don't need it any more' Needless to say the offer was refused.

Yes, I suppose even a couple of years does make a big difference when you're young.

Ana I was 15/16 in 1969 so really missed the 'swinging 60's sexual revolution ' to be honest I'm sort of hoping this new sexual revolution' will pass me by. I simply do not have the energy.

Well I think the people they interviewed were probably doing what most people in surveys do i.e. exaggerate, avoid or lie.

Most of my friends are over 60 - some considerably so - and I can neither imagine them going at it like rabbits or using rampant rabbits. Women who are having a lot of sex get a glow about them and a look in their eye. None of my friends are glowing.
