I find tears running down my face as I read this. How oppressed I've been and how insidious it is that I didn't know this 30 years ago! I just thought nobody wanted to see that--to see me. So I denied myself, my sexiness, my desires, and my humanness, and now, here I am at 60--alone and empty. So empty because sex was for able-bodied people, but not for me. I held myself apart and oppressed, and I blamed it all on society. Now I see I could have adjusted those negative thoughts into my favor, and maybe not have made my life so lonely.

Also, I can tell you have a wonderful soul and there are so many people out there would who be lucky to have you in their lives. Yes, mistakes might have been made but please don’t close yourself up to opportunities for companionship, age really IS just a number. You’re beautiful, inside and out, and worthy of everything you desire. Have a wonderful day 🫀

Such an important conversation. It’s like I’m haunted by this Puritan American concept where enjoying sex will get me branded for life !
