"Ageism: The Other Phobia
by Scott Stiffler

The Good News: Assuming you diligently practice safe sex, fold your parachute correctly, look both ways before crossing the street and avoid the questionable salmon from that deli salad bar, you're poised to live for a very long time (easily surpassing the present average of 77 years).

But what will life as a GLBT senior citizen be like among those for whom social security and Centrum Silver are far-off visions? Well, that's The Bad News: If the status quo is any indication, you've got a lot of work to do in order to make your golden years flush with social support, financial security and hot sex."
