Letter: Sex and the older man
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.I STEELED myself as I felt it my duty to read every word of your sex edition (Real Life, 21 January) - and found a regurgitation of the type of material spewed out by the glossy magazines, with some more personal anecdotes that could have come from the top shelf.
Are you trying to teach us something? Because most of it was old hat in today's free for all, and some was sheer nonsense. Except for Kate Saunders's piece which should be compulsory reading for all active males.
In my day (I'm 71) sex was to be enjoyed and if you had a problem, there were plenty of people around to advise. Not much has changed except the media can't stop talking about it.
