Eggs! A question!

If you don't know, now ya know
We all know that Actors tend to date/marry babes that could be their daughters. See: Nicholson, Jack and Woods, James for reference.

It was interesting to note that Gay actors/celebrities do the same. It seems it's more a "rich" thing, because I see many 60-something guys with 30-something hot wives at the supermarket I work at (it's in a VERY rich, old-money area).

I know that youth is especially revered in the gay culture (at least it was back when I was plugged into the scene...no pun intended). Is it still this way? Do you see 40-something or 50-something guys with guys half their age, or younger? What I mean is, is it more common for a gay man of average means to score a hot young thing? Or do you see more long-term committed couples around the same age?

Just curious to see if things have changed.

BTW, howcum you ain't "married" yet, sucka??
 
There's definitely a hotness-based class system in the dating circuit, in New York you even go to certain bars/clubs and not others based on your type and level of trendy hotness.

As the gheys get older they think more about settling down, though, like str8s, and will settle for someone to love who isn't necessarily pornstar hawt...

I'm not married because I'm a hairy computer geek, that's why! Soon, tho...

WHAT? Really? Like you have to be an "8" or better to get in club X and so on down the line? That's pretty fucked up...but then at least you're not the lone troll in a room full of Soap-Opera pretty people, right?

I know this is a terrible generalization, but is there a certain age when most gays "settle down"? I mean, all of my straight friends were married around the same age as me, 25. The couple of gay men I kept in touch with that I knew from my days of working at a gym, then hadn't settled down by that age.

Soon? Is there a Mr. Eggs that you've been seeing and you're not tellin' us about?!?!?
 
I'm the wrong ghey to ask about this, my social circles are pretty small and specific. ;)

Nobody special right now, I was just being optimistic.

'swhat happens when we get into our thirties. No time for anyone but our REAL friends. Hell, my best friend lives in California, and my only other friend is Darthsikle! Everyone else is my wife's friend and their spouse. Wow, how pathetic is THAT?

That's no different from the club circuit I used to be involved with.

I know where you're coming from here. I'm godfather to four kids from three of my best mates all in their early 20's. Most of them are settled down with their respective bitzzatches though few have it together enough to actually get married.

I think it's silly to settle down at 25. I mean, come on! There is so much to do, mid 30's seems more realistic and less daunting than settleing down so early in life.

But I'm not a good person to ask either. Mainly because I'm fucking crazy and way too eccentric to be talking about "average" relationships.
 
^^Lemme ask you something that will probably seem like a dumb Yank question: Do you find more of your mates co-habitating without getting married? It's still more common in the US to get married and the whole shebang, but all the British shows I watch seem to suggest there's an awful lot of people with kids who are living together.

Just curious.
 
Well I have a 25-year old niece with 2 kids. The first one was an "OOPS!" baby but she settled down with the father and had the 2nd one properly.

She's a daycare worker and teacher so she's great with the kids. But she's so young...but then, I'm almost twice her age and don't have much to show for myself in the family department...It's tough to try and arrive at a "right" time to settle down, it's different for each of us.
 
^^The divorce rate in the United States bears out both your and Menty's assertions. Did I marry too young? Dunno. Time will tell, but in September I will be married 10 years, and together for 12. That's pretty much my entire adult life. Yikes.

There is a very simple answer for that.

For most people it's the only way to afford somewhere to live. If you knock some broad up and move in with her the Social will pay your rent, pretty much.

So yes, they all live together. Unless you're minted it's not possible to afford housing in Southern England anymore if you're on your own.

If I get married I think the lass would be blessed with incredible luck. My only ultimatum is that Wacky has to live with us.
