I can't see how it could be bad at all, though, I would say that when things stop working it might be good incentive to give marital celibacy a try. 

But, the thing is ED is usually a sign of much bigger problems and really needs to be addressed.

That doesn't mean Viagra shouldn't be used.  Dudes should check it out.  If it's just ED then get some medicine.

ED isn't a normal part of getting old is it?  I mean, it doesn't appear that you could use some argument from nature, as, at least it seems to me, ED is an unnatural failing of the system instead of an intended change to the male body by Mother Nature.

The decline of the body is a part of getting older.  But, ED usually means your blood isn't circulating correctly and you can probably expect a heart attack down the road.  Studies have shown that senior citizens are more sexually active than college students.

That seems physically impossible.

That seems physically impossible.

A U.S. National Council on Aging study found sex didn't stop with a few grey hairs.

Findings showed 71 per cent of men in their 60s, 57 per cent in their 70s and 27 per cent over 80 engaged in sexual activity at least once a month.

For women, 51 per cent in their 60s, 30 per cent in their 70s and 18 per cent in their 80s were active in the same period. As adults stay healthy longer and surgery and drugs improve sexual performance and drive, these numbers could rise higher.

Well it makes sense.  Most senior citizens are married, and with retirement they have less stress and duties that will get in the way of the act. I suspect the decline in sex as people age is in large part explained by the death of a spouse.

Though seriously in our culture we see young people fornicating as great normal and cool and old people having sex as disgusting.

But most of those old people (at least today) are married.  Those young people are mostly ... not. 

So power to the old (and young) married people
