Is there such a saying in folk legend? Is it true that the wife looks ugly and lives to 99? Actually, we don't know! This statement is a way to warn those who are extravagant and absurd about sex life. In daily life, as long as sex is not particularly frequent, it will not affect their health. In particular, some elderly people should not be affected by this sentence to suppress themselves. It is good for the body to have regular sexual life in the middle and old.
As the folk saying goes, "The wife looks ugly and lives to 99", I don't think so! The implication is self-evident. This popular traditional concept believes that sexual life will affect people's physical and mental health, especially for the elderly. If sexual activity is not stopped, the impact on physical and mental health will be greater.
According to the above view, the elderly should not have sexual demands, even if they have sexual impulse, they should also exercise restraint. The reasons for these statements are roughly as follows: in feudal society, emperors of all dynasties were three palaces, six courtyards, and concubines in groups. Most of them were extravagant and indulgent, so there were only a few emperors who lived long in history; In addition, before the liberation of China, sexually transmitted diseases were rampant, and those who had sex lives in chaos and excessive lust often died of disease. In a reasonable way, the idea of abstinence and fitness seems to be very reasonable, so when it comes to longevity, it becomes an important experience. Therefore, many people in our country advocate the saying that "middle-aged people have different quilts" and "old people have different beds" between husband and wife.
However, the research results of modern sex medicine have proved that the above popular statements lack sufficient scientific basis. Because sex is a basic need that accompanies a person's life, and people will not lose their sexual desire because of old age. Sexual activity will not only alleviate the sexual tension of the elderly and meet their physiological needs, but also for humans, especially for the elderly, sexual life is not only a physical behavior, but also a spiritual attribute such as mutual comfort and care. Therefore, the psychological joy of a complete sexual life has positive significance for the life of the elderly, and is an irreplaceable medicine for the health and longevity of the elderly.
As long as we analyze various specific investigations, we can understand the real utility of the happy marriage and harmonious sexual life of the elderly. The Soviet Union's survey of longevity villages and Japan's survey of people over 100 years old showed that the longer the people lived, the more their spouses were still alive in their later years. On the contrary, among unmarried and widowed people, there are more short-lived or sickly people. A survey in the United States shows that the death rate of single men and women, widowers, widowers and lonely people is 2-10 times higher than that of those who have a happy relationship; The incidence of heart disease, lung cancer and stomach cancer in divorced men under the age of 70 is two times higher than that in men of the same age who are happily married. The incidence of liver cirrhosis is seven times higher and that of hypertension is three times higher. However, divorced or separated women are more likely to be infected with diseases than those who have a happy marriage. Their immunity is low, and they even lack immunity to some diseases. Their health status is relatively poor, and the number of visits to hospitals is also increasing.
After comprehensive analysis of various surveys, experts came to a conclusion that older men and women with spouses live longer than those without spouses, and those with harmonious sexual life live longer than those without sexual life or sexual life is not harmonious.
