In the face of the growth of the elderly population as well as the increase in life expectancy, there is a need for society to reflect on sexuality during the later years in life. This subject, however, is surrounded by myths, taboos and prejudices. Its comprehensive approach should consider the psychological,
social, cultural issues that highlight the sentimental, emotional and affective aspects. The specific literature review points out that people can meet pleasure of senses, the lived experience, wisdom, insouciance and the ability to achieve intimacy, particularly in old age.
