how do you feel about aging? 

how do you feel about aging?  We are all getting older, and that doesn’t often make us happy even when it seems to beat the alternative…  Most Americans are afraid of getting ‘old’, presumably because we associate with it pain, poverty, dependency, and being treated poorly by the rest of society.  Does it have to be this way?  Most elders remain physically active and in good shape for decades.  The percentage of elders living beneath the poverty is actually quite low, and retirement sounds like a terrific way to live if one is healthy and has money.  

how do you feel about aging? 

In this forum I would like you to consider several things.  First – how do you feel about aging?  Why do you feel that way?  Are you basing your perceptions on elderly people you actually know, or on media images and stories you have heard? 

How is aging different for LGBT elders than straight elders? Do you think that these differences are generationally contigent-or cohort based? Will the differences in aging change? Why do you think so?
