something about old queer people being able to finally be queer and out. something about our flag means death and good omens having older gay people who are discovering themselves and kissing eachother. something about the aids crisis and a generation of old queers being forced to hide or dying. something about young queers being able to see themselves grow old.

I would just like to say I appreciate media taking on the whole ‘old gay’ thing because, yes, representation of queer youth is important but we often forget that there are also queer people older than the age of 25. With the recent movies/shows (OFMD, Good Omens, The Last of Us, Knives out, Glass onion etc.) there’s been a lot of rep for older queer people and I think that’s just swell :)
Edited:
Someone commented that I forgot B99 and I wholeheartedly agree. Holt and Kevin are amazing rep.

You can't convince me that these two are NOT an old gay couple.

Hello, #Tumblr. I apologize in advance for the lengthy message, but I would just like to get my thoughts down because after doing some reflection on myself, I have many.
For the longest time, I have considered myself an ally to the LGBT community. Having a homosexual sister, two LGBT kids, and many LGBT friends and coworkers made me a very passionate ally for this community.
Recently,
I've also wondered if I'm something more than an ally. With the stability of my marriage being thrown into question, joining a website with a large LGBT community, and talking with some of my friends, I've decided to do some reflection on myself, and what I actually want in life.
I can't deny that I lam interested in women, so I never considered the possibility of being a homosexual at all. I was in love with my wife, and I'd be lying to you all if I said that our divorce wasn't heartbreaking. In fact, because I loved my wife I never once thought any LGBT label could possibly apply to me. However, after some interesting events I believe I would also be open to the idea of forming bonds with other men. In fact, I did experiment with another man recently and I enjoyed it.
Quite frankly, If I do end up in a relationship again, I'm not sure if the Gender of my next partner really matters to me. If I had to put a name to it, I suppose Bisexual would be best suited for what I'm experiencing. I didn't know such a term existed when I was younger, so this makes me wonder: had that term existed earlier, would I have called myself Bisexual earlier on in my life? I don't know, but I'm glad such a name exists now. I loved my now ex wife. But through self discovery and joining such a loving, accepting community of LGBT folks here, I have discovered that I am interested in men, too. I'm open to all genders. :-)
So I suppose this is my coming out message. Thank you all for reading.
Harold

David and Michael playing as Crowley and Aziraphale has cured me of the fear of aging. Of course they are meant to just look that way not not really age in the GO universe, but I mean seeing them physically and having hope for love and passion and what not. It also helps to read human AU fics where they are still middle aged and the author mentions wrinkles or what not in the same breathe they mention how god awfully attractive they are. It just gives me hope that my dreams and sensibility wont be thrown out after I pass a certain age.
