With more than eight decades of life to reflect on, Frances experiences sex as a combination of emotions, thoughts, and sensations. “The truth is that it takes your head, your heart, and your hands in order to consummate good sex and good social relationships.” According to Frances, another difference between sex at eighty-six and sex earlier in life is lifestyle. “When I was younger, my husband and I had our own little house, with our own little bedroom, with our own little children, with our own little schedules for doing things. We tended to have sex at night, because we were busy working during the day. It’s different now, because my partner comes [to the nursing home] in the daytime. We’re not together at night, and so our sex therefore is an afternoon matinee. And the fact that we are older, we’re more measured in what we want. We know how to pleasure each other directly now, as my husband and I did not necessarily know then. The pleasure is different because the body is different. Not better or worse but different.”
