More About the Author
Product Description
Synopsis
One in five gay men is over the age of 60, but, sadly due to AIDS and only very recent public acceptance, the gay population has virtually nothing in the way of older role models. In the first book to address this issue, Lockhart offers a series of interviews with ageing gay men. Crossing regional, financial and ethnic boundaries, and reflecting on issues such as sex, spirituality, self-image, finances, health and retirement living, this straightforward and practical book will give gay men a touchstone for planning their years as vital, productive and passionate seniors.

A Must-Read for Any Gay Man Planning for His Future, 9 Jan 2006
By Earl R. Sutton "earlsutton" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Gay Man's Guide to Growing Older (Paperback)
"As Steve Hogan and Lee Hudson wrote in their book, Completely Queer: The Gay and Lesbian Encyclopedia, 'Aging remains one of the least discussed, least studied, and, probably as a result, least celebrated aspects of gay...lives.' Until now. In The Gay Man's Guide to Growing Older, John Lockhart has conducted in-depth interviews with more than 40 gay men over the age of 65, and he has compiled his findings in this practical, nonacademic book that details what life for 'gay men of certain age' is like. Topics covered include money, work, health care, relationships, sex, and more! This book is a must-read for any gay man planning for his future, regardless of his current age."--© zebraz
