Code: ELD300
Cost: $100
Description
One of the most significant losses with advancing age is the loss of intimacy. Many seniors have no opportunity for physical contact, affectionate dialogue, or snuggling. The continuing development of sexual identity represents a basic fulfillment for older adults in their advancing years. This class explores society’s attitudes and myths about sexuality in later life, as well as presents information about ongoing research into physiological and emotional changes affecting sexuality and intimacy.
