Just Like A Virgin
I was reading the story of Clara Meadmore who is to have her 105th Birthday on Saturday. She puts her longevity down to being single and celabat for the past 105 years of her life and claims that she never had any interest in sex and “I imagine there is a lot of hassle involved and I have always been busy doing other things”.
She probably was as she was a keen walker around Britain between the 1920’s and 1930’s.
Clara still posses her own teeth and hair and obviously her faculties. She was born in Glasgow and lived in Canada and Newzealand before settling down in Perranthorpe Cornwall.
I’m not sure if she could have had a happier life with someone to share it or if she has been fulfilled in other ways.
My husband’s great aunt passed away a few months ago, she was in her ninties and also a self-proclaimed virgin. She had no children and had never married….
I oft wondered if she thought she missed anything…
