I don't know what's funnier -- that or the counterpart "women peak sexually at 40". I actually believed that hog swill when I read it in well-researched sex books. Sure, like anything, it might apply so SOME women, but it's certainly NOT a general truth. I would have been better off not reading that because it made me complacent -- I figured my wife's sex drive would pick up as the years went on. And that mine would go down to meet her sex drive as it went up, so that by middle age, as one book put it, our sex drives would be pretty much "evenly matched" by middle age. Complete horse manure. Our sex drives literally couldn't be farther apart. Even years of therapy, including sex therapy, hasn't resolved the problem.

Oh yeah, one of the well-researched sex books even promised that women become more "orgasm driven" as they approach middle age. Yeah, right. I've never personally seen that.
