The elderly tend to be victims of "age-ism," a false concept that discourages consideration of sexual activity in old age. Geriatric sexual activity is a vital issue, however, and proper management of attendant problems has great bearing upon mental and physical health. The inevitable processes of aging necessitate adjustments, but these can be accomplished satisfactorily by enlightened understanding between sexual partners.
老年人往往是“年龄歧视”的受害者,这是一种错误观念,阻碍了人们对老年人性活动的考虑。然而,老年人性活动是一个至关重要的问题,妥善处理相关问题对身心健康有很大影响。不可避免的衰老过程需要做出调整,但通过性伴侣之间开明的理解,这些调整可以令人满意地实现。
