Seriously, it's like anything else...common interests outside the bedroom and a better chance of making friends with others who don't look at you as a relic. As much as I enjoy sex, I find it's a different game when you get older. I also like to talk to others close to my generation, just as the young people like to talk to others from their generation.

Here is where I see a major problem. Too many swingers over 50 are just as discriminatory - or more so - as they accuse swingers in their 30's and 40's of being.
So what if the 32 year old single guy I'm having sex with doesn't know who Roy is, it doesn't lessen our ability to connect. Do those of you over fifty know who Jonny Lang or David Gray are? Have you an interest in musicians who weren't born in your decade?
Mr LM loves break dancing. It's funny seeing him try it at home in the living room, and he knows he'll never accomplish most of the moves, but he's intrigued by it. He also enjoys certain rap artists, as do I; it's one of many forms of music we have taken the time to get acquainted with.
Common interests with swingers of all ages can be wide spread, if you want them to be. If a person stops learning, acquiring new interests, and developing new tastes for what the world has to offer, they greatly lessen their chances of being interesting to others and desirable to be around, especially as a sexual playmate.
If you feel you're being looked at as a relic, maybe you are becoming one.
We have yet to play with swingers over 50 because none have what we are looking for in play partners. It's because, as ItTakes3 said,
Sadly, most folks our age are content to be couch potatoes. It shows in how they care for themselves, how they dress, and how they describe themselves in their profile.
