I disagree. I think it has a lot to do with gay culture as well as the loss of a couple generations of gay men.

Because of the AIDS crisis, for the last couple decades The median age of gay men has skewed much much younger than the median age of lesbian women. Younger men have more of a desire to go out and party, get drunk, hookup, etc. than women over the age of let's say 35.

Additionally, hookup culture is a massive part of the young gay lifestyle, while U-Haul culture is more associated with younger lesbians.

This means very few spaces have ever been created that cater to an older gay audience and the lesbian bars that have been created have primarily just been gay bars for girls.

Lesbians and older queer folks need to redefine what such a space should look like instead of trying to rebrand what young gay culture thrives in.

Right. Sure. Me who has volunteered at a couple homeless shelters should spearhead helping hundreds of people get settled in a new city with all of my non -existant resources.

Why would I ever just go randomly do shit when there are experts who can do it? All I'm asking for is direction on WHO is doing it so I can make the biggest impact with what I can offer. 🙄🙄
