Our society often views seniors as sexless. But 76-year-old author and speaker Joan Price knows otherwise.
At the age of 61, the renowned sex educator was inspired by a passionate love affair to write her first book on seniors having sex. Better Than I Ever Expected: Straight Talk About Sex After Sixty was released by Seal Press in 2006.
Since then Price has not stopped advocating for better senior sex education, including a recent collaboration with performer jessica drake (who spells her name using all lowercase letters) on the adult film jessica drake’s Guide to Wicked Sex: Senior Sex.
Inside the world of erotic sex ed
Released in August 2019, the erotic movie is part of the popular educational series jessica drake’s Guide to Wicked Sex, written, produced, and directed by the award-winning actress.
The senior sex series, co-created by Price and drake, explores the different ways aging can affect sexuality, both with a partner as well as solo. Its steamy scenes feature explicit demonstrations of sexy seniors who aren’t afraid of having passionate sex in front of the camera.
In fact, jessica drake’s Guide to Wicked Sex: Senior Sex could be considered an answer to the popular “granny” fetish in the world of adult entertainment. It shows senior sex in its most sensual and realistic form.
The instructional film breaks taboos in how it portrays seniors having sex, doing so without the fetishization of older women that often appears in mainstream X-rated videos. It also brings a healthy amount of diversity with it to adult entertainment, proving that having a great sex life is not just an option for young models with perfect bodies.
The titillating scenes, which feature real seniors, will likely prompt many couples over 60 to discover the pleasures of intimacy again, without having to confront themselves with images of younger performers with unattainable bodies.
The sex scenes are provocative and stimulating, and they can be seen with or without audio commentary.
Sex after 50, sex after 60, and so on…
Before joining forces with drake, Price shared her expertise on sexuality and aging in several books and forums.
Her work has received plenty of coverage in mainstream media, where she’s been called a “wrinkly sex kitten,” “senior sexpert” and “the beautiful face of senior sex.”
After the success of Price’s first book in 2006, hundreds of seniors began asking her questions about how to keep or regain a healthy sex life.
She runs the blog “Naked at Our Age” and the column “Sex at Our Age” on the retirement community website Senior Planet.
This prompted Price to write an instructional book about sex over 60: Naked at Our Age: Talking Out Loud About Senior Sex, published by Seal Press in 2011.
In 2012, the book won the honor of “Outstanding Self-Help Book” from the American Society of Journalists and Authors. Additionally, it won the 2012 Book Award from the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors. and Therapists.
After Naked at Our Age, Price explored the topic of senior sex further in The Ultimate Guide to Sex after Fifty: How to Maintain – or Regain! – a Spicy, Satisfying Sex Life (Cleis Press, 2014) and Sex After Grief: Navigating Your Sexuality After Loss of Your Beloved (Mango Publishing, 2019).
The former is her most comprehensive self-help book, while the latter was inspired by the loss of her loved one in 2008.
