Like us there are many "older" couples/singles on this site however I have to agree that there is great shortage of people willing to meet people who are now in the older age bracket, not that we openly look for the younger age groups as we would prefer people around our own age.
At our time of life we have come to realise that quality is far better than quantity and often read many ads now that do say things like, and I quote," Attractive cpl/single seeks...........multi repeater.......heavy cummer.......fit, tanned , tonned" you get the picture whereas now we like to take things a tad slower , a drink and a laugh with slow more sensual play as opposed to "come as many times as you can"
I will say though that with age it does not always meen that the outlook is mature. Age and maturity are two totally different things by this I meen that yes you can be young and have a good reponsible outlook and respect other people aswell as you get the older age group who, because this is a sex/swingers site still act like 12 year olds with a hard on.
Age should be no barrier to sex or swinging but I think I have to agree that unfortunatly for us that the older people like us are finding it harder and harder to find sutable,mature people.
Without doing apoll, just by browsing through the ads, it seems that the swinging community is with out doupt getting younger leaving us poor old wrinkles behind.
Fully agree that the "age-ist" attitude does exist. Can't say that I blame anyone for it - I was the same in my twenties and thirties. I thought that anyone over fifty was really ancient and people then retired from life. Being well the wrong side of this barrier now and seeing many people of my age vegetating, I can still understand why this frame of mind continues. As somone who is still fit and goes out rock-climbing, dinghy sailing, skiing, kayaking , it is frustrating being pigeon-holed as past it.
What really narks me, however, is not that people don't want to meet up for some fun, but that, in the vast majority of cases, they can't even be bothered to reply.
You are right about quality rather than quantity being available and anyone that does take a chance on meeting will find that, with this maturity, comes a realisation that to give satisfaction is as important as receiving it, if not more important.
Long live the Old Farts of this world. :thumbup:
I have to agree with what has been said on this subject maybe there is room for another category on swingingheaven for the older swingers in town.
I agree with most things that have been said but I do think it is sad that people over a certain age should forget about having fun and sex. I am 45 and would love to meet a couple/ woman over 50 with no limit on there ages. There are still some very attractive women around who are well into there 60s, plus there is one thing that really annoys me is when looking through the photo ads and seeing couples advertising themselves as mature and then finding out they are only in there 40s. These people are getting old before there time and lets hope that there are still plenty of couples about in there 60s if not older still enjoying an active sex life wether it includes swinging or not.
I think it would be a great idea to have a section for us older ones. Years ago I lived next door to a couple in their 70's and they had a very active sex life. We could hear it all through the walls. Now I'm older ( not 70's yet) I find couples my own age (50's) and older very attractive. We should have more thoughts on this.
I am a single male (I know, the dreaded!), but I am genuinely interested in older ladies too, from say 45 - 65, and would LOVE to meet someone like-minded for evenings of mutual pleasure. I know older women who are very sexually active, but are, unfortunately married and not into swinging at all.....
That said, I'd be very shy if I met a couple, I'd much prefer 1:1, but if any mature ladies in West Yorkshire would like to meet a younger man of 34, who's respectful, attentive and really appreciates an older woman, I'd love to hear from them!

At 53 I totally agree with most of what has been said here, there does seem to be a lot of older women looking for young studs, and like wise with older men! Why not give us wrinklies a chance to prove ourselves, after all experience beats enthusiasm every time.
Well I am sorry to say that all of us old males have had it! We have now been cast to one side, as not up to giving service to older couples or old ladies????
Let us have a new page here, Sex for the aged!!
Sandy :P
So-----How many contacts have you old males had??? and note just how many Females and Couples have made a comment on this subject.???
Do you know something that I do not.
Sandy
Halyard, I took Kardiff's remarks as being addressed to Sandy, not to you or anyone else.

I agree it's just such a boring topic - however it is a pattern of youth to accuse us older people of whingeing and having a chip on the shoulder - I sometimes get the feeling that they think we should not even be shagging at all which is why I suggested that they klive their own lives and let us live ours. If they can't understand the message then as far as i am concerned it ain't even worth explaining. From my point of view "End of Topic"!
As the aucthor of the apparently "offending" comment It was, as correctly assumed by Mike N, that it WAS aimmed at Sandys posts and if you read my post in full it goes on to explain that I actually supported the argument that older swingers and the fact that they appear to have more fun.
It wasn't intended as any sort of "I've had fun and you haven't" antaganistic approach at all!!!!
It was innocently intended more of a yes there are some oldies having fun and they are out there. IMHO the posts from Sandy seemed to be a whinging attempt at he was missing out - not the case at all.
So settle down Halyard and read the posts throughly first ok? FFS guys.
** Mods**
Any chance you lock this thread please to save any further problematic posts? Thanks.
Well son it would appear that you think 40 to 50 is old? So just get real and see how many oldies are on this site at 60 or over.
As usual you think insulting comments solve everything.
So if you cannot say something of worth, do not say anything at all.
