Who are the polyamory advocates for seniors? [I Am Polyamory]

I'm coming 71 years old. My days of procreation ended when I was 34 and had a vascectomy. My wife is my age and post-menopausal(no surprise there?).
Social scientists report that STIs are running rampant through the country's long term care (LTC) homes. Why? Because older folk still like the feel of holding someone close and being held close and sex (when possible) is the finest mechanism for fostering such feelings.
So... why, when most people in LTC homes are either separated from their spouses due to illness or are widow(er)ed and are wanting to practise sex with available people is it still such a TABOO subject - rejected by society?? Why doesn't someone advocate in the media for its acceptance?
One person cannot stand alone to publicly raise this topic.... it needs a 'movement' of like-minded people.

I forgot an attachment, I liked this link:

I understand were you are coming from but it's against God's law so unfortunately we can't question it.
It's for our own protection.

@Kygirl knowing that it happens, do you really think that "we" should just continue to deny it? My wife's step brother's wife has dementia, is in an institution and doesn't know who he is. He found a woman that makes him happy and he makes her happy. Wouldn't a loving and just God approve?

@samueltyler2 Does he know who his wife is?

@Zeusdelight That happens sometimes with dementia.... people forget their recent past (and most of the present) and just live for the moment. Who is society to dictate what is morally (sexually) right when they are acting as innocent children - and it makes no real difference anyway (except to the institution management who are worried that someone from the outside will close them down). Society regulations - pfffft!

@JollyRoger So you think she should not be protected?

JollyRoger · 70-79, M

@samueltyler2 I know a woman who lives in a LTC home, is single and is a very caring person, but she has health problems. A man comes to the same LTC home to visit his wife who has dementia and she has no recollection of him... yet he comes to visit. The single woman knows both of them and is friendly with the man - sexually friendly as she tells me. I have been in the presence of all three of them and I see absolutely nothing wrong with this....the man is happy, the single woman is happy and the demented wife doesn't really care, does she? Point out the harm to me please!
@ZeusdelightZeus... I miss your point about who needs to be protected...

@JollyRoger you said it, i didn't not need to! You totally missed my point entirely! I suggest you reread my comment!
