There are two kinds of people in the world - Those who think sex is important... and everyone else.We turn fifty and then what happens? The jokes start, about what doesn't happen anymore. Sex and dating is hard enough at any age without the added assumptions that we're all too old for it. Especially because as it turns out, we're far from too old… in fact many of us are enjoying the best sex and more fun in our relationships than ever before.50 is the new 30 it seems, and Dixie Carlton has set out to explore exactly what that means, vertically and horizontally. From endless conversations, with all kinds of people aged 50 and over, she has determined who is doing what, what the 'new normal' might be for many of us and delivers it in a chatty refreshing way. She's not a former sex worker, or a trained sex therapist, just your everyday 'girl next door' – although sporting a few extra wrinkles now - and a passion for starting conversations about all the fun we're having in our mid and later years.Dixie shares:•Spontaneity tips and dating tricks,•Seduction ideas to enhance any meal,•A basic road map to finding hidden sensual pleasures,•How hairdressers can identify who's getting it and who's probably not,•Exactly why some of us are walking around with extra satisfied smiles.Chapters also include what happens when there are children or potential step children to consider, and preparing your kids for the likelihood of you dating again some day. How to navigate dating sites, and top tips for how to easily have those really awkward conversations about intimacy. Whether you're married, single, or somewhere on the journey to changing either of these states, this book will help you rethink and refresh your sexuality in your middle and later years. At the very least - this book challenges the way we talk about sex, with each other, our friends, our kids, our parents, and with ourselves.
