Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University Study Claims Senior Citizens Who Are More Intimate Are Happier

New research presented in Boston at the Gerontological Society of America’s (GSA) 64th Annual Scientific Meeting on Sunday has drawn a direct link between the sex lives of those in their mid-to-late 60s and their level of happiness with their lives and their marriage. According to a GSA press release announcing the findings, this conclusion is the result of a 2004 survey of 238 individuals over the age of 65. The data from that study was analyzed by Adrienne Jackson, an assistant professor at Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University (FAMU).
