sex and the elderly – Dr. Sari Locker: Sex Educator and TV Personality http://sarilocker.com/blog Dr. Sari Locker: Sex Educator and TV Personality Tue, 30 May 2017 13:53:11 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.4.11 Ernest Borgnine: Sex Ed Hero http://sarilocker.com/blog/2008/08/15/ernest-borgnine-our-sex-ed-hero/ Fri, 15 Aug 2008 13:42:26 +0000 http://sarilocker.com/blog/?p=14 Legendary actor Ernest Borgnine, 91, has been making headlines for a hilarious little piece of a TV interview that is all the rage on You Tube. He appeared on the Fox News Channel to promote his new autobiography, and the host asked him the secret to his longevity. “I masturbate a lot,” the actor ‘whispered’ to the Fox host, loud enough for all of us to hear. This clip is great sex ed, because it promotes several very important (and too infrequently discussed) truths about human sexuality:

  1. Masturbation has health benefits, such as lowering stress, and as research has found, lowering the risk of prostate cancer in elderly men.
  2. Masturbation is normal for married people. Ernest B. has been married to his current wife for over 30 years.
  3. Elderly people are still sexual! Even at age 91.

In case you missed it, take a look at this Oscar winning actor/Sex Ed Hero. Then if you are so inspired, take a break to enjoy making yourself live longer. The video is on youtube here.
