Dear P.-
I cannot speak to the 'earlyforties' per se...I was divorcing at that time...and sex had been a very very distant memory for me for some time then...
BUT I can give you 'hope' for the late 40's and early fifties...post menapausal...
Iin MY case, a caring, loving, gentle, experienced man in my life now. I do NOT know if all the planets just aligned...or if I am particularly deserving at this point in my life...or that the kids are older...or I am just more comfortable in my own (albiet wrinkled) skin...BUT WOW!!!!
I would have to say a 'ratio' (to put it delicately...LOL) of at least 3 to 1...
I do think...for me...knowing that I was no longer able to become pregnant freed me greatly. Or maybe I have been making up for lost time!!
Who knows...who cares??? LOL
Take heart...for ME the fifties have been the BEST ever!
Enjoy..
Merry merry!
