Description

Living in Color: Queer and Confident at 50+

with Jörg Wellenkötter

Queer people over 50 face a range of challenges in a society shaped by youth, physical attractiveness, and heteronormativity.

Even within the queer community, there can be ageism, where older individuals are seen as less relevant or interesting. A lack of family structures or close friends can also lead to isolation in midlife.
In this group, you’ll meet like-minded people who are also navigating the challenges of getting older.

Here, we support and empower one another, share our experiences, and learn from each other. Together, we want to embrace the challenges of aging — and enjoy life to the fullest!
