There is several small groups of gay men here in the City by the Red... most are close friendship groups, neighborhood plays an important role, where you live etc... Some of these groups cross racial and culture lines....
There is always some tug of who's turf you are crossing so to speak.. its a healthy lil rivalry ... nothing like gangs, but just Lil Young Queens, excuse me.. Lil Young Princesses.. is more like it.. quibbling about this man or that one....
The Sap is rising fast since the days are longer and the cut off jeans haven't appeared just yet... but they are laying on the couch.. freshly wash.
One of these groups happens to come up on my scope since I hang out on my front porch a good bit.. fresh air cures the Soul you know.
I'm amazed at how these groups see the older set of gay men here. .. When I came out at 26, there were plenty of gay bars, cruise sites, etc... there was Free Love... and Tricks abounded,, There was. not this Cynic Gay Culture we have creeping into our lives these days.... We loved our Gay Elders back then, they had the supper parties for 8 to 12, gad flying around the table, holding Court.. etc etc...
But Not these days... O no... its the Old Men are Lepers... Don't associate with those Creeps... maybe its a sign of the times, the more Out we become, the More our culture is accepted, the more older gay men are placed in the background... not accepted....
Well, Suga... I got news for all of them... My Supper Party was a Hit on Saturday night, the table had Ten ...7 young ones, and Three Dowager Empresses in Full Regalia.. being in the Moment and the season .. Green Purple and Gold...... Who Got the Baby ... don't crack a tooth.
