An 80-year-old woman died of a heart attack during sex. Suicide, homicide, or ?

[OregonGuy]

Does her partner's age matter? Is her partner's knowledge of her heart medication relevant? Is her signed consent form and payment significant?

When I presented this question to CoPlot the AI responded...

The circumstances surrounding her death raise questions about liability and intent. If the partner was aware of her medical risks and still proceeded, could this be considered negligence? The financial transaction and explicit consent might complicate the legal interpretation, potentially shifting the focus from criminal responsibility to issues of informed consent and personal autonomy. Ultimately, the case depends on the specifics of their relationship, the medical evidence, and the context in which these events occurred.

Apparently the AI did not understand the book "The Joy Of Sex" and did not know some of us Seniors think sex is a great way to go!

Assisted suicide is definitely a possibility worth considering.

I hope there is not a rash of spam mail asking us if we would like to enquire about assisted suicide as they would
offer the service.

I stand by my right to declare, "not enough information."

Is her signed consent form and payment significant?

Does that mean she paid someone to have sex with her? Was the sex partner male or female? Way to many unknowns to offer an opinion on limited input.

But if an opinion on is sex just as good after 80 is needed then my opinion is-- it is.

In normal circumstances- no. She consents knowing her risk.

In a paid situation - depends on the contract, I suppose.

No matter who paid, how was paid, if there was consent or not, I hope she passed after she had what she came for.

 

[Lavinia]

I'm sure she died happy.

 

[WheatenLover]

I don't think the facts as presented show that it is suicide or homicide.
The lady was responsible for knowing the risk and for the outcome of taking the risk. I really don't see how the guy did anything wrong since it was consensual.

 

[Rakaia]

In normal circumstances- no. She consents knowing her risk.

I that the concept of dignity of risk is applicable.

I stand by my right to declare, "not enough information."

I'll say TMI...

What can I say. Its a risk you take. The same thing has happened to fifty year old men.

On his 70th birthday, a man was given a gift certificate from his wife. The certificate was for a consultation with an traditional healer, who was well known to have a very good naturopathic cure for erectile dysfunction! As he despised western medicine, believing the conspiracy theory that they only represent the interests of big pharma, he consulted with the traditional healer.

The healer gave him a potion and with a strong grip on his shoulder warned, This is a powerful medicine. You take only a teaspoonful, and then say ’1-2-3.’ When you do, you will become more manly than you have ever been in your life, and you can perform for as long as you want."
The man thanked the healer and as he walked away, he turned and asked, "How do I stop the medicine from working?" "Your partner must say ’1-2-3-4,’ he responded, "but when she does, the medicine will not work again until the next full moon."

He was very eager to see if it worked, so he went home, showered, shaved, took a spoonful of the medicine, and then invited his wife to join him in the bedroom. When she came in, he took off his clothes and said, "1-2-3!" Immediately, he was fully erect! His wife was excited and began throwing off her clothes, and then she asked, "What was the 1-2-3 for?"

And that, boys and girls, is why we should never end our sentences with a preposition, because we could end up with a dangling participle!
