"Since menopause I only enjoy sex with hubby if I imagine threesome with women" 8-)
https://www.thesun.co.uk/dear-deidre/37911117/menopause-fancying-women-sex-husband/
I am single, do not have a sexual partner (or potential for one) of any sort, or any women I'm friends with socially, so I have zero idea what sex is like for women during peri-menopause or post-menopause and have nobody I could even talk to about such things, so I'm asking you SW ladies who are in that stage of your life for some explanation and understanding.
The gist appears to be the women in the article is/are 'questioning' sexuality and wondering if they've always been harbouring gay/lesbian/bi thoughts and feelings but never picked up on it until now. I'm not going to presume anything about this since I've got no gay thoughts myself and have never been in any circumstance were sex with a couple would ever be possible to explore that.
For clarification, my second ex is 50 and I've been separated from her for 8 years now, so she has probably gone through the above and talked about it length with her other women friends (some also single mums like her), but menopause, etc. *never* came up as a convo topic when she and I were still together and I would not have had any idea how to bring it up to start a discussion.
Because she's a sexual health medical professional and I'm not, plus I'm a man and she doesn't like men, I'd automatically be wrong. ;-)
On the flipside, I have always thought it would be interesting to try the bi side via interaction with couples, but that requires me to have a circle of friends and it would need to include trusted couples. I'm 57, and can't really say if my understanding of sexuality has ever been really clear due to being neuro-atypical, introverted, and (I believe) demi-sexual.
Make of all this what you will. There's not really a good place to talk about any of this. Esp as a man because 'safe spaces' for men's feelings really don't exist.
