They
look sexy, manly, hot as fuck, lean, muscular, confident, and worry-free. These
are the men beautifully photographed in the “Men over 50 Project.” These men
are pushing the limits of old age – 50 is the new 30! This is the model of the
new older gay male – no longer lonely, depressed, and uninviting. Only a few
can achieve such a standard, of course. The rest of us are left either struggling to accomplish
the prototype or feeling guilty and failed for not realizing it.

The
project squarely places age on our bodies and physical outlook – as mainstream
gay culture has done since AIDS. The body is where our sense of self resides;
where virtuosity and futility live.

This should be a series. I really enjoyed this. It's nice to get other men's feed back that your age. Everything is engulfed with the youth today. It's also nice to look at men who look good with their shirts off. Gives me hope at the gym.
Enjoyed this immensely, at 51 this gives me hope.
This is really encouraging
