Key concepts in sociological theories of aging are reviewed on the basis of data drawn from earlier sociological studies of aging homosexual men and from a 4-year longitudinal study of 47 homosexual men ranging from 50 to 80 years of age, particularly regarding their happiness. The article explores the question of whether or not successful weathering of the coming-out crisis provides homosexual men stamina unavailable to aging heterosexuals. Finally, it examines allied and aversive relationships of young and old gay men.
基于早期对老年同性恋男性的社会学研究数据以及一项对47名年龄在50至80岁之间的同性恋男性进行的为期4年的纵向研究(尤其关注他们的幸福感),对衰老社会学理论中的关键概念进行了综述。本文探讨了成功度过出柜危机是否为老年同性恋男性提供了老年异性恋者所没有的耐力这一问题。最后,研究了年轻和老年男同性恋者之间的友好关系和厌恶关系。
