STDs rampant at Retirement Communities

STDs rampant at Retirement Communities

I've often wondered about this and now it seems to be true: old people sitting around old age homes are downing viagara and having bareback sex...and contracting STDs.

You would think that it'd be safe to fuck condomless in your 80's but I guess there's never a time when you can disregard safe sex. Can you imagine: your husband has passed, you haven't dated or had sex with someone else in 40 years, you strike up a conversation with the man across the hall, fuck, and find yourself in your gynecologists office - getting the you-have-an-std lecture. Yikes.

Here's the whole article:

Doctors said sexually transmitted diseases among senior citizens are running rampant at a popular Central Florida retirement community, according to a Local 6 News report.

A gynecologist at The Villages community near Orlando, Fla., said she treats more cases of herpes and the human papilloma virus in the retirement community than she did in the city of Miami. "Yeah, they are very shocked (to hear the diagnosis)," gynecologist Dr. Colleen McQuade said. "I had a patient in her 80s."

"More and more senior citizens are ending up in the gynecologist office, and their diagnosis is a sexually transmitted disease," Local 6 reporter Vanessa Medina said.

Local 6 featured Louis Franklin, who used to date in the community at least three times a week. "I have had a better dating life since I have been here than I have ever had," Franklin said. "I know there are things going around."

A doctor blamed Viagra, a lack of sex education and no risk for pregnancy for the spike in sexually transmitted diseases at The Villages. "All I can repeat are the things I have heard which are things like, 'Should I bring the little blue pills over tonight?'" community singles group president Richard Matwyshen said.

At their age, they probably think they're pretty much living on borrowed time anyways, so why worry?

muahaha.... Poor senior citizens, can't get a break. Still, this topic makes me giggle, imagining a grandma getting lectured in the gyno office.

You would think after all the experience that they would have sexually, especially the veterans that went port to port, would know who the whores with the STDs would be.
