Sexual BehaviorsStudies have shown that sexual activity
does not automatically decline with age. Most older people who have an available
partner maintain a quite vigorous sex life.Those who are inactive cite boredom with
a partner of long standing, poor physical conditions or illness (such as heart disease), or acceptance of the stereotype of loss of sex drive with aging.

Cognitive ChangesAn adults reaction time begins to
slow after a certain age. Even with a decline in speed,
people continue to acquire information and to expand their vocabularies as they grow older. The ability to comprehend new material and to think flexibly improves with years and experience.

Entering the Adult WorldFrom ages 22-28The young man considers himself
and by society, to be novice- not fully established as a man, but no longer an adolescent.
During this time, he attempts to resolve conflict between the need to explore the options of the adult world and the need to establish a stable life structure.

The age 30 crisisBetween ages 28-30, this is a major
transitional period.The 30th birthday can be a turning point
called the “Age thirty crisis”.Tentative commitments that remain in the
1st life structure are reexamined, and many questions about the choices of marriage partner, career, and life goals are reopened often in a painful way.
Mans feels that his life is incomplete and unsatisfying, because he feels it will be too late to make any major changes.

The midlife transitionThis happens about the age of
40-45.The man begins to ask questions
such as “What have I done with my life?”, “What have I accomplished?”, “what do I still wish to accomplish?”.
