Seniors Depend on D-Strings for Love
Elderly women want a fair shake at sex appeal, too. The latest variation on the G-string panty is their answer to Viagra for men.

SANTA CLARITA, Calif. — With yearly Viagra sales for men topping 1.6 billion, senior women are looking for proactive ways to take control of the bedroom.
Senior women want to feel and look sexy just like younger women, but the occasional leakage sometimes makes it hard to "sex it up" for their partners.
"Now that granny's got a D-string, I'm not getting any sleep!"
— Happy senior man
For many elderly women, D-Strings™ may be the answer they've been looking for.
Barry Waters, a medical supplies manager for a San Diego nursing home, has come up with a novel invention to help grannies spice up their love life.
D-Strings™ are Depends-like undergarments, loosely fashioned after g-strings, but their super-absorbent material soaks up spills like a thirsty sponge. And the design is so attractive many women grannies are wearing low-cut pants to let their D-Strings show.
"Now that granny's got a D-string, I'm not getting any sleep," one worn-out senior told me.
Mary O'Henry, one of Waters' first test clients, raves about how his design has liberated her.
" D-Strings™ are the greatest invention since the Model T," purrs O'Henry. "I feel free again to rock and roll all night. Let's put it this way, if you're wet while wearing a D-String you can be sure it's not because you tinkled."
