Losing the urge I'm 45 and over the past year or so I've noticed a sharp decline in my sex-drive. Not only does viewing porn do less and less for me, but I rarely feel the desire or the need to "punish the monkey". I can go several days without so much as a glimmer of interest, whereas even a full year ago it was hard to go even one day without a purge. Nothing in my life-style or dietary habits has changed, no medications to speak of, or anything of that nature. No religious or spiritual "stirrins" either. I've been without a mate for nearly five years, but that never presented too much of a problem. Am I just getting old or what? You know what I hate the most about selfish people? It's that they don't think enough about MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! | |

Wauw, Bro - . But take it easy, there - getting close to 50 here too, and have the same thing - ON AND OFF. At your (our) age I think and have heard this is pretty normal - but that does not mean it'll go on. I'm certainly NOT an expert - so just talking from the same experience. Got a spouse - but that's no garantie for anything - also here thing are on and off... Your're NOT getting old, but going through the motions, so to speak - have been there - and again on and off - but believe you me: It'll come back - all of it - also another mate and the drive. We have an old saying here in Denmark: 'There's alway another bus and another woman along the road' (freely translated). And another sex-drive. Like I said - nothing expert here of any kind - just from experience... Keep up the good spirit above all - and enjoy what you can, WWW... Best regards!!! Denner PS: And of course it's also a matter of ON and OFF with the porn-deal - sometimes you just get tired - and then it comes back (my experience, anyway) "I don't drink anymore - I freeze it, and eat it like a popcicle" Edited on Dec 08, 2009, 08:27am | |

We're just getting old, WWW. : - ) But, like Denner says, don't worry about it. I'd had the same thoughts as you. Other than still struggling to get a decent job, nothing's changed here. And I'm noticing all kinds of things that remind me I'm not 25 anymore. The arthritis in my neck gets worse, the knees don't seem like they're holding up as well as before and, the prescription for glasses gets stronger and stronger. (Maybe the cliché is true - I didn't stop it and now I'm going blind) All that to say, again, I wouldn't worry about it. It's just normal. Think about this - Can you really picture yourself as a 3 times a day, 80 year old monkey spanker? :laughs: Sarcasm is a body's natural defense against stupidity. | |

It sounds like you need to make some adjustments to your porn viewing habits, your 'stress relieving' habits, or both! ;) "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Arthritis in the neck... maybe that's what's causing all this neck pain I get? I go through Icy/Hot tubes and sticks like a junkie. Ginseng, huh? Okay, I'll try it. You know what I hate the most about selfish people? It's that they don't think enough about MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! | |

I guess it depends on your physiology/genes? I'm 69 and I feel almost as horny as I did in my 30's. Still going at something every couple of days. (Look at all the reviews I've done in the few months I've been here!) A smidgen of Levitra and I continue to amaze myself. My understanding is that testosterone is the libido hormone in both men and women. If low libido bothers you, you could have your sex hormone levels checked. There are, I believe, testosterone patches that will help if yours is low. As long as you haven't had cancer that could be stimulated by testosterone (prostate or testicular), I think it would work. I remember reading that when some women were given testosterone, they thought about sex all the time and said something along the lines of "My god, is THIS how men feel all the time?!". Anyway, good luck! | |

I can't take that from someone who says, "I refuse to stop. I must watch this dirty movie." :laughs: The eyes are going because I spend all my time in front of a computer - amazingly, not all for porn. :bigger laugh: But the body's wearing out because all the jobs I've had were physical. The trick is to not letting any of it stop me. I figure I'll keep running circles around the kids on any job I might have until I wind up either crippled or dead.

At our age, the mental aspects of the sex drive are very important. We all have periods where the same old porn does not work for us. Can I assume you have checked your testosterone levels? Some medications mess you up as well. If it is none of these physical reasons, most likely it is just a phase and not the end. | |

Never had testosterone checked. I generally avoid doctors unless I literally can't. What's weird is, I can still get very enthusiastic about collecting pics of beautiful women. It's become such a hobby that I can select, sort, and fuss with them without an ounce of physical desire. Maybe I've objectified women to the extent that I can admire them like artifacts rather than people? Bad Willy! I'm used to the normal ups and downs that you all describe. Been there, done that; but the last month or so has been markedly different. You know what I hate the most about selfish people? It's that they don't think enough about MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! | |

Consider yourselves lucky. I look forward to my libido lowering to a level that allows me not to have to spank it at least a dozen times a week. | |

Actually, I don't really. Once I had distilled out my prefrences during adolesence, I have never tired of them. More of the same always does it for me. I do tire of porn that doesn't fall into my 'niche' though.

Lol. :) I certainly wasn't implying that you should stop -- in fact I would never imply that anyone should stop -- but maybe you should make sure your monitor and your desk are both level, or get a display that can rotate so you don't have to strain your neck. As far as the eyes go I'm already pretty bad off. I'm so nearsighted I would not be able to use the keyboard, much less gawk at the monitor for hours, uh, I mean minutes at a time. I have had to wear fairly strong corrective eyewear long before I began my love affair with porn, so no one can tell me it was all the dirty pictures and movies that made me go blind!

You could be getting estrogen from your drinking water. I know, it sounds crazy but a lot of the shit we flush and wash down our drains ends up back in our drinking water even after its been treated. I don't think there is any practical or efficient way to get medications and a lot of chemicals out of water -- including the estrogen in birth control prescriptions -- so you could be getting that, but then that means everyone would probably be suffering. As far as the "select, sort, and fuss" problem it sounds like you should go and get a degree in archival science or something related to it, though I doubt they are intended for highly organized perversity. I am sure there are plenty of hard drives and sites that are hurting for better organization. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Lol! Wittyguy, once again you have brought a smile to my face (no, not that kind of smile, pervert!). I always knew there was a reason I hated school -- and it still happens, minus the blackboard. Though I am sure whenever I can't start my day with wood I will be in tears.
Maybe this is what the original iMac was for. You remember the one from the 1990s with all the color options and was an all in one monitor/processor/drives machine that was marketed around the claim that it could connect to the Internet in just three easy steps. C'mon, I seriously doubt everyone just wanted to check their e-mail and bank statements. "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?

Well, I don't drink water, so it probably aint that, but the estrogen thing is funny. I work with mostly women and I'm always saying that they are "feminizing" me. I have a standing offer from one of my workmates for a little fun in the sack, but alas, I am not attracted to her. You know what I hate the most about selfish people? It's that they don't think enough about MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!! | |

I tend to think there may be something wrong medically. However, I DO NOT have problems with the erector-set. It functions just fine. It's the lack of desire, the almost complete absence of good old filthy lust, which concerns me. You know what I hate the most about selfish people?

It's interesting how different folks are experiencing "diff'rent strokes." ;) And at different ages. It's heartening to know that getting past 40 doesn't necessarily mean losing your mojo. It's just a lot more likely. That's all. Personally, I'm not as fresh 'n ready as I was as a teenager, back in the days when the girls still wore miniskirts to school and the trouser snake was so easily aroused that it was something of a management/impulse-control issue. Like, throughout the school day. I have yet to "cream my jeans" at the workplace I now go to, and there are lovely women there, too, though more is left to the imagination. And THAT's still active. But there's something NEW to complain about: Johnny's got a new mission statement, and it is no longer to seed the planet. There are those "no way" days, those "hey HEYYY" days, and most bothersome, those "hey HEYy ... aw shit" days. I fucking hate that. I'll say this: I'm really thankful for the good times. And I'm clean and sober and don't take any medications. I wanted something new, so I left England for New England. | |

I wish it were funny -- at least to us men, as doesn't seem to be a big concern for women -- but there have been reports for the last few years about estrogen (the real kind, like they put in the no-baby pills) and estrogenic chemicals, which are the real scary stuff. This is the mysterious synthetic compound shit that is put into plastics (including stuff that holds food and water) and all kinds of other products we put either in, on, or even just near our bodies and can have effects similar to estrogen. The problems really arise with pregnant women exposed to these chemicals as it effects their unborn male babies, but I am sure it doesn't make for the purest sperm sample either. I have read that it can contribute to smaller penis size (which some believe the fate of the human race pretty much hinges on) as well as 'feminized' male genitals in newborns. I am not really sure what the latter means, but it would probably make for a whole new set of locker room anxieties. :( I am sure women get a good laugh out of all this, but after they are done cackling it up they may want ask why our environment is so shitty. All these chemicals probably effect them too -- like the whole breast cancer problem -- and a bunch of pink ribbons aren't going to make it go away.

Is this more classic Wittyguy humor or are you being serious, or did you just get distracted in your thoughts (avert thy gaze, Santa!)? I am asking because I thought you could only be born to a woman -- or did I miss a really crucial day in biology? "It's incredibly obvious, isn't it?
