Sex, Drugs & Seniors: as "gray" crime-wave has swept over Europe.
Sexual intimacy is at record highs for the 57 and older crowd. According to a new survey from the National Institute on Aging's Behavioral and Social Research Program, there is "a previously uncharacterized vitality and interest in sexuality that carries well into advanced age." And it's far more common than the token Blanche trawling around Fort Lauderdale. Researches at the University of Chicago found that more than half the people over 65 reported being sexually active. Of course there are pace setters like Nanu Ram Jogi, a 90-year-old, who has just become the world's oldest father, and Daad Mohammed Murad Abdul Rahman, the one-legged pensioner with 78 children.Sexual intimacy is at record highs for the 57 and older crowd.
