Various newspaper and magazine reviews, news snippets:<\/strong><\/p>\n A new book of interviews shows 70-somethings are finding they have plenty of energy for romance and more, even making their grandkids blush.<\/em> Sassy 70-something, Doreen Wendt-Weir, is the new pin-up girl for romance in the twilight years.<\/strong><\/p>\n Not afraid to strut her stuff, Doreen now wants everyone else her age to do the same.<\/p>\n At 76, Doreen took charge of her love life and decided to write a book to help others her age put the spark back in theirs. There are 34 chapters, with 35 people all spilling their secrets.<\/p>\n “There are a lot of happy people who are doing it the second time around, because they have learned their lessons the first time around,” Doreen said.<\/p>\n If you think that being 70 means knitting and crosswords, then think again. Ivy, Hans and Robyn are three other 70-somethings shattering the 70s dating scene stereotype.<\/p>\n They are single, on the prowl and with experience on their side, say they know exactly what they want.<\/p>\n And nothing is off-limits in conversation – not even Viagra.<\/p>\n Like any age group, those aged over 70 are all different: some want the passion, some purely want someone to go to dinner with, to talk to, they are just very lonely and they don’t want to be.<\/p>\n Marjorie Marshall, from the Internet-based dating agency, A Perfect Intro, says gone are the days when single and widowed 70-somethings have to spend their lives in front of the television.<\/p>\n “I just don’t believe there is any single out there, or certainly not many of them, that are meant to be alone,” Marjorie said.<\/p>\n “They need to find their partner and they want to.”<\/p>\n They were out there dancing, playing, taking on romance, Marjorie said. Just like they should be.<\/p>\n “At the end of the day, the least you can make is friends, and if you have a future perfect match, then magic,” she said.<\/p>\n Doreen said what she discovered in her survey would be more than enough to make their grandkids blush.<\/p>\n The admissions were so saucy, Doreen had to promise them all anonymity.<\/p>\n But that has not stopped her using their stories to titillate and excite others, exposing their love lives to anyone who wants some inspiration.<\/p>\n Don’t be fooled by the cheeky demeanour of the love-seeking 70s: they do have their serious side and Doreen says there’s no secret to a relationship that survives the distance.<\/p>\n “If you’ve got a problem, I think you should talk about it and above all I think you should respect the other person for being an individual,” she said.<\/p>\n “Of course, you must be loving. It’s all about love, the last words in the book are all about love.”<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" REVIEWS AND NEWSSome of the various newspaper and magazine reviews and news snippets… Check out\u00a0Doreen’s recent interview on Brisbane ABC Radio with Madonna Kingor\u00a0download the audio file HERE\u00a0(~5meg mp3) Listen to the\u00a0interview with Georgia Stynes (Capricornia Afternoons)\u00a0or\u00a0download the audio file HERE\u00a0(~6meg mp3) Read the\u00a0article in the Logan and Albert News here\u00a0… Various newspaper and magazine […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-795","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sexinyourseventies.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/795","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sexinyourseventies.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sexinyourseventies.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sexinyourseventies.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sexinyourseventies.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=795"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/sexinyourseventies.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/795\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":802,"href":"https:\/\/sexinyourseventies.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/795\/revisions\/802"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sexinyourseventies.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=795"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
