Dear Anonymous,

Glad you asked. I have been thinking about old gay aging very often in the past few weeks.

At Gay Pride Buenos Aires, among the thousands of very young revelers, I saw very few faces older than perhaps forty-five. Why were the older men and women not there? I wondered, on which morning of one's life should one, upon waking, look into the mirror and say "I can't go to Pride anymore." Or "I can't go to that bar anymore."?
