Older, Wiser, Sexually Smarter - Rediscovering Intimacy Later in Life
2026-11-10 14:00 - 15:30 | Stonewall Meeting Room, 1301 E. Colfax Ave., Denver, Colorado, 80218
Older, Wiser, Sexually Smarter - Rediscovering Intimacy Later in Life
This weekly discussion group is facilitated by a West of 50 staff member and focuses on dismantling sexual misconceptions and introducing evidence-based topics to help older adults engage in their best sex-positive-selves. The group operates based on important and fundamental concepts about sexuality and ages. Older adults can examine and possibly change the “sexual scripts” they have learned from childhood about to think and behave as sexual people. Many of these scripts are not relevant for older adults. Additionally, sex is more than intercourse. Especially in the later years, individuals can to explore the possibilities of non-penetrative sex, or “outercourse”.
We cover topics such as

Sexual decisions later in life
Good Sex: What Makes it So
Looking for Love Later in Life
Safer Sex Activities for Older Adults
From Problems to Possibilities: Sexuality, Aging, Disability, & Chronic Illness
Bottoming
Nipple play
Bondage & Discipline
Dominance & Submission
Sex History
Oral Sex
And so much more!
