As the first generation of gay men enters its autumn years, these
men's responses to the physical and emotional tolls of aging
promise to be as revolutionary as their advances in AIDS and civil
rights activism. Older gay men's approaches to friendship,
caregiving, romantic and sexual relationships, illness, and
bereavement is upending conventional wisdom regarding the aging
process, LGBTQ communities, and the entire field of gerontology.
QUEER AGING comprises scholar Jesus Ramirez-Valles's probing
conversations with 11 racially and economically diverse
representatives of this pioneering generation of gay men-the gayby
boomers. Through candid, first-person narratives, Ramirez-Valles's
subjects reflect on their varied experiences as late career
professionals, retirees, AIDS survivors, caregivers for ailing
partners, and witnesses to profound social and cultural change.
Framed within a larger introduction to both Queer Theory and its
history, these reflections provide context for understanding the
aging arc and experience of older gay men. Spanning sociology,
history, cultural studies, and social work, QUEER AGING will be a
vital resource for students as well as health professionals who
serve the gay community and communities of color.
