2 Grumpy Gay men

Over the Gay Hill at 30?

Age is an important detail in gay life. There are many ways that we define it.

Actual age, gaydar age, gay age (amount of years since you came out), and the age at which lesbian bed death occurs (currently around 2 years into a relationship – that’s 1 year, 364 days after moving in together).

The village bars split themselves into age groups, and if you wander into the wrong age-group bar, you have one of two responses;
A younger guy wandering into bar full of older men gets that look of lust,
Whereas an older guy wandering into a twink bar gets that look of disgust.

But there’s more than just age that divides the gay community;

Active or Passive (or greedy), Gaga or Britney, Cruz or Essential, and more importantly, whether you should go for the fries or soup with the sandwich on the Taurus Menu.
It’s no wonder that with all those choices in the gay community, friction can and does occur.

Relationships flourish and flounder quicker than Jordan finds her next new six-pack owning boyfriend.

So, by the time gay men reach the age of 30, they’ve experienced life’s trials and tribulations a million times over, and they have an older, wiser head on their shoulders.

But don’t just take my word for it, see how many of these situations you recognise in New Attitude Theatre Company’s new comedy – “2 Grumpy Gay Men – Loitering With Intention”.

Humourous debates between William and Benjamin, whilst they wait, about Manchester Pride, Manchester’s twink’s latest hairstyles, Zac Efron, and of course, the gay that divides opinion, John Barrowman.
