The Thirty Year Old Sexual Peak
I recently had the unpleasant experience of turning thirty much
to my chagrin. However, I will forever allege that this was not
my fault. Time was moving much too swiftly and although I tried
my best to stay in the sexy and swinging twenties, I lost my
grip and fell flat on my face in my thirties. I am led to
believe that I will not be allowed to return. The horror. The
horror.
Aside from my momentary lapses of self pity, there are some
great benefits to being a woman in her thirties. As you probably
guessed from the title of this article, I am now in my sexual
prime. It seems like a cruel joke. Guys can't think about
anything but the tent pole in their pants while in their teens
and early twenties. But by the time women get to the same stage,
the men are calling in reinforcements of Viagra. I am sure you
have all heard about this before. Women hit their sexual prime
at thirty......or do they? I almost half expected to become some
raging ball of hormones as if I was pushed on by a button when I
turned thirty. I was looking forward to it. To my dismay, no
such transformation has occurred.
Shedding light on this curiosity of mine was Dr. Sandor Gardos,
a doctor in sexual education. According to Dr. Gardos, the
notion that women hit their sexual peak at 30 is very
misleading. You will find many websites and articles on the very
subject talking about how women get their groove on and peak at
30, or 35 while others say 40. But if you are talking about a
hormone flux, this is simply not true. Men and women develop the
same hormones at the same time: puberty. The only reason why
women seem so much more interested at a later age is because we
were taught NOT to be interested in sex when we were kids. If
you experimented with sex like the boys did, you would be
labeled the town Jezebel. Only when women mature are they able
to feel more comfortable talking about and practicing sex. They
finally open up and begin to feel normal about desiring sex.
Then it becomes a whole new world for women. The reason why
people argue about the age of the sexual peak in women is
because it varies for each women. It might take some women, for
example, longer to learn how to orgasm. But when each woman
finally feels comfortable with her body and the virtues of sex,
it just might be like hitting puberty for her, especially if she
had always lived a reserved or conservative life. This can be a
great time in a woman's life; a true sexual awakening. And if
you measure a sexual peak by interest level, then you can say
that she has hit her prime. On the other hand, there are some
women who go wild and crazy in their twenties and never give a
thought to those societal messages, i.e.
