Final reflections:

This concluding chapter briefly reprises the main foci of this volume concerning critical attention to the cross-cutting embodied, relational, cultural, structural and policy and practice-related constraints on older people’s intimate and sexual self-expression. However to avoid a simple, pedestrian recap of key points, the chapter highlights broader themes to which chapters refer and which suggest an agenda for research that could develop into studies of how older people challenge and resist desexualisation and that anticipate creative resexualization of diverse older selves.
