Older people are having more sex than many people realise.

A new study shows 31 percent of women aged 50-90 have sex at least twice a month, while 54 percent of men over 50 have sex at least twice a month.

What’s more, the report revealed that the sexual satisfaction levels of women actually increases as they get older, while the opposite is true of men.

However, interest in kissing and petting barely changes as people age, according to the study.

Research found 31 percent of men and 20 percent of women still kiss on a regular basis.
