Kinkly: What’s behind the name?
Joan Price: It has two names, actually. It was first named “Better Than I Ever Expected” to match my first senior sex book. Then, when I wrote "Naked at Our Age, Talking Out Loud about Senior Sex," I wanted to rename it “Naked at Our Age,” but it was complicated to change it. So now you can find it under either name.
Kinkly: Who’s your target reader?
Joan Price: People over 50, and those who aspire to be.
Kinkly: What’s unique about your blog?
Joan Price: It’s the only longtime sex-themed blog specifically aimed at readers over 50 that also includes more than 100 sex toy reviews from a senior perspective.
Kinkly: What is the topic you find yourself covering most often and why?
Joan Price: I cover senior sex news and views, and I specialize in sex toy reviews from a senior perspective. As we age, many of us need more stimulation than our arthritic wrists can provide, and a well-chosen, well-placed vibrator can mean the difference between orgasm and no orgasm. It’s my mission to help people – especially those who aren’t regular vibrator users – understand the benefits of various sex toys and make the right choices for their needs. By the way, I see them as sex tools more than toys.
Kinkly: What was your most popular post ever? Why do you think it drew so many readers?
Joan Price: My three lingerie shoots at age 65, 68, and 72 are my most popular. I don’t know how much of their popularity is from prurient interest and how much is from readers understanding how empowering it is to celebrate our aging bodies in this way. Hmm, should I do another lingerie shoot when I turn 75 in a couple of months?
