Summary
One in three people will eventually have some type of dementia. By the time you reach age 80, your chances of having Alzheimer's is about about 50%, meaning that it's very likely for at least one spouse in an older couple to have cognitive decline.
Which brings us to a serious question: Can your spouse give full consent to sexual activity if they have diminished memory and understanding? Devin and John discuss a case where the husband was charged with criminal rape of his wife who had Alzheimer's disease.
