In our 24/7 lifestyle, allowing technology in the bedroom is sure to result in love lost.
Boomer women today have less time for sex than their 1950s counterparts. And it's estimated that 40 million Americans have what experts call a sexless marriage (having sex less than 10 times a year).
A regular sex life is good for your health. It can satisfy all sorts of emotional and physical intimacy needs and help partners stay close, says Anita H. Clayton, M.D., a professor of psychiatry at the University of Virginia and author of "Satisfaction: Women, Sex, and the Quest for Intimacy." So why the dry spell? You can chalk it up to a sheer lack of time, but there are a slew of other reasons, too -- from weight gain and perimenopause to technology overload (stop texting now) in the bedroom.
Valentine's Day is a big day for Baby Boomers.
Any other day of the year, an ugly sweater or a cheap-looking pair of earrings is just further evidence of your poor shopping skills. On Valentine's Day, it becomes a "symbol of our relationship." Get it wrong, and it may be your last.
Aging Boomers are facing the ‘use it or lose it’ proposition when it comes to their sexual health. So they’re getting pumped up to re-invent their sexuality...and...Valentine's Day is the most pumped up day of the year for Boomers to show their stuff.
The bed should be used for sex and sleep only. So why do so many of us insist on bringing third parties -- laptops, PDAs, "Law & Order" -- into the boudoir? Perhaps it's time to make the bedroom a no-technology zone and give sex the priority it deserves. If you have to schedule sex as you would a meeting, just do it!
Emotion is the messenger of love; it is the vehicle that carries every signal from one brimming heart to another.
