I am a professonal but not in sociology but I like to participate in the
discusion from credentials as being in my mid 60's.

I think there is a very strong desire by older people to be attracted and
attracted by others as we age.  However we live in a society in the US
which is youth oriented so older people feel more inadequate, often holding
these feelings to themselves.  Older people have strong need for intimate
relationships but our culture tends not to recognise this. From life
experiences older people have a much better sense of self - areal advantage
over younger who are still stuggling with themselves. Older people need to
be encourage to share themselves more deeply with others including younger
people.  People in Universities have a great advantage as they have close
contact with younger people.
