Aging and sexuality
So, next week the group I was assigned to has to give a presentation to the class on Attitudes and Cultural Issues relating to the elderly. We each picked a general topic to research and present. My topic?
Sexuality.
Yeah, imagine that...
Last night I was finishing up my PowerPoint slides, and was Googling for images to add to spice things up. Well, the things you find when you type in "Geriatric sex" or "elderly sex" or something related.
Of all the images I came across, this is the one I chose to use as the opening of my presentation:
I think that sets the right tone to talk about elderly having sex with a bunch of twenty-somethings, don't you?
(In all seriousness, reading the info we had, I decided it was all too hetero-centric, so I'm adding GLBT issues, including retirement and nursing homes - I'm hoping to stir some things up on the last day of class!!)
