We often hear the saying "A man is in his prime at forty," which describes how a man's career and love life reach their peak at 40. But what does the saying "A woman is like a wolf at thirty, and a tiger at forty" mean? It actually describes a woman's sex life after marriage. Married women are often portrayed as more mature, stable, and attractive, but is it truly true that a woman's sex life is like a wolf at thirty and a tiger at forty?
Why do women experience a stronger sex drive after the age of thirty?
Before the age of thirty, most women are in a groping and uninformed phase when they begin having sex, lacking sufficient sexual knowledge and skills, so intercourse may not be particularly smooth. However, after thirty, as the frequency of sexual activity increases, shyness decreases, and they gain a better understanding of sex, their sex life naturally becomes much more harmonious.
1. Increased sex hormone levels
Men typically experience peak sex hormone levels around age 20, which also coincides with their strongest libido. Conversely, women experience a gradual decline in estrogen levels after age 30, while the decline in testosterone levels is relatively slower, leading to a more pronounced sex drive during this age range. Therefore, some have suggested that "for sexual harmony and fulfillment, men should marry at 20 and women at 30."
In addition, the period after age 40 is considered the last time for women to conceive, as their reproductive organs will reach a peak, which is also the main reason why women experience a surge in libido between the ages of 40 and 50.
2. Family and work
Most women over thirty have families and children. Sexy beauties, with happy marriages and successful careers, often have higher expectations for life and may therefore dedicate more energy to creating a fulfilling life, including their sex lives. Of course, some women's increased libido after thirty may also be due to family and work pressures, leading them to seek stress relief through sex.
3. Postpartum vaginal laxity has been restored.
Many women experience vaginal laxity after childbirth, leading to a lack of sexual satisfaction. Some women may try various methods to regain sexual happiness, one of which is exercising the pubococcygeus muscle. Once a woman is able to have normal sexual intercourse, her desire may be stronger.
Regardless of a woman's sexual desire level after marriage, she should engage in reasonable sexual activity. If problems arise, couples should communicate openly, be understanding of each other, and seek medical attention promptly.
