Older people are an age group that is often overlooked when marketing erotic products, but they are actually a very large market for erotic products.

According to a survey, many older people are still lustful and do not hate erotic toys.

Many people may intuitively understand the image of a white-haired old man taking a vibrator out of the bed. But no one is not young. Getting older does not mean the end of eroticism.

Are erotic toys only for young people? In fact, if you delve into physiology, mental health, anatomy, etc., erotic toys are more likely to be more suitable for the elderly than for the young.
In traditional concepts, especially in the East Asian Confucian world, talking about "sex" in old age is a taboo and can be labeled as "old and ugly".

"As people age, both men and women become more emotionally invested in sex. Many elderly people's "sex life" is actually limited to "caressing" and "initial" physical contact, supplemented by erotic toys, and cannot complete real sexual intercourse. "Many elderly people don't like to come to our store," said Prevo, the owner of the erotic shop "Passage Du Désir". There is a prejudice that if a granddaughter learns that her grandmother has bought a torso sex toy, it will be embarrassing. "

"Dr. Patrick Papasian, who studies gender emotions, said, "Many elderly people, whether single or in couples, have normal sexual desires like young people."

Studies have shown that there is no age limit for enjoying "sexual pleasure". According to a survey conducted by AgeWatch in 2019, 45.6% of elderly people want to have a regular sex life. The use of erotic toys is popular, and 38% of elderly women said they are more likely to feel orgasms when using erotic toys.

Alian, who is in her 60s, likes to use erotic toys. Actually, she is a very traditional woman who woke up to torso sex toys after divorce, but she soon began to regret that she should have used sex toy torsos earlier.

"During the 30 years of marriage with my ex-husband, we lived a traditional normal sex life," she said.

But I always felt a little unsatisfied and did not experience what was portrayed in movies and literature.

After that, I divorced and remained single, but for a long time after menopause, I began to pursue porn seriously and bought torso sex toys for the first time.

The results far exceeded expectations, and the torso sex toys worked perfectly, giving them complete freedom and unimpeded pleasure. Do what you like and want to do, without hesitation and shyness. Since then, my erotic desires have been more completely satisfied than ever before.

"Contrary to popular belief, older people should use more erotic toys than younger people," said Dr. Papadian.

Older people after retirement, without work, without children, and with plenty of time, are a good time to discover and explore.

Erotic toys are also very suitable for older couples to use together. "Experimenting with torso sex toys opens up a whole new world of eroticism," said Dr. Papadian.

"Many older couples are urging women to buy torso sex toys," said Pruvo, the owner of an erotic shop.

Sex torso toys can not only explore the body erotically and get pleasure, but also overcome the biggest problem of "loneliness" for the elderly. Many elderly people live alone for a long time due to divorce or widowhood. "Loneliness" is a very serious psychological problem. Dr. Papadian said that the correct use of sex torso toys will promote the secretion of "dopamine", which is very beneficial to the body and mind. Long-term abstinence increases the risk of vaginal atrophy and dryness, especially in postmenopausal women.

"Especially the elderly may need longer and stronger stimulation to get motivation and pleasure. Older couples may have physical difficulties, so using torso sex toys is ideal."

Sex torso toys are also suitable for older men. Now many male toys, love doll torsos, penis sleeves, etc. that help men have normal erections are discounted. These toys can make up for anatomical difficulties and stimulate cognitive function," Dr. Papadian continued. In short, the wise use of torso sex toys is good for nerve cells. "
