Very fascinating information about sexuality in older individuals who suffer from dementia. As a sex-positive activist it is interesting to learn about behaviors in not just younger people but older individuals as well. (

This is a useful and informative book addressing two topics that often are not addressed in our world today. With engaging stories, and interesting insight, this should be required reading for those who have a loved one who has dementia, or those who work in a field that engages with that population. (

This is a well written book about a taboo topic within dementia. It was strange to realize that I hadn't thought of changes in sexuality as part of dementia, even though it is obvious in hindsight. The numerous anecdotes illustrating the author's main points made this book very enjoyable. I highly recommend this book to anyone who might be affected by dementia, which is essentially everyone.

I have a step mother who has Alzheimer's so I was interested in reading this book since she has here and there said some inappropriate things around us. It seemed like her filter has gone, knowing that she shouldn't say some things around others because it would make them uncomfortable.

It is in this state of mind that I read the book and I found that it did answer some of my questions and helped me understand what was going along. Working with the public it is something that may come up in the future as well, so it's good to know. (

A recurring topic in my conversations with families and caregivers is whether or not we are actually talking about sexual activity when people with dementia reach out to one another, or to others.
