A 100-Year-Old Sex Therapist Explains Why Millennials Aren't Orgasming

TIME sat down recently with 100-year-old sex therapist Shirley Zussman to discuss what has changed about sex over the past millennium. She is warm, fuzzy, and wonderful and clearly knows her shit.

"There's so much less actual physical connection, so much less touching. There's less talking, less touching, less looking. I mean, people get pleasure from looking at each other," Zussman explained about how we sex now versus how we sexed in the '60s.

"But the most common problem, I would say ... is a lack of desire. You have to order your priorities and decide what is important to make you feel good about yourself and your life and to help make your partner feel good. To establish something gratifying that fills a need that we all have to be close to somebody."

It is happy, sad, and eerily resounding all wrapped up in one. Enjoy:

Kelly Clarkson Denies Pregnancy, Explains Decision to Elope

Kelly Clarkson has denied that she is pregnant and has offered an explanation as to why she and fiancé Brandon Blackstock are planning to elope.

The "Tie It Up" singer announced this week that she and Blackstock have chosen to call off their elaborate wedding, in favor of an intimate ceremony.

Speculation about the couple's relationship intensified days later when a radio station mistakenly reported that Clarkson was pregnant.

Clarkson set the record straight in a message posted on her Twitter account on Thursday (August 22).

"FYI ....Brandon & I are getting married & no I am not pregnant. We are eloping for one reason only. We both want an intimate ceremony," she tweeted.

The American Idol winner explained earlier in the week that her and Blackstock's busy schedules led them to opt for a smaller scale ceremony.

"We are so busy that we finally just came to terms the other night and were like, 'So, we change our minds and we want to elope'," she said.

Clarkson had previously commented that she was "so over" wedding planning.
