Queer Sex for Gen X / Sexuality Workshop Series for Gay & Queer Men 50+

Let’s be honest, nobody handed any of us a roadmap for navigating sex, dating, relationships, and changing bodies after 50. That’s why The Center is launching Queer Sex for Gen X, a fun, candid, and judgment-free 4-week series for gay and queer men 50+ looking for real conversations about sexuality, intimacy, communication, hook-up culture, non-monogamy, and aging. Because growing older does not mean growing invisible.
Led by sexuality educator Christopher White, PhD, this interactive series combines discussion, activities, and practical tools to help participants approach sexuality with confidence instead of shame.

About This Series
Queer Sex for Gen X is designed specifically for gay men, queer men, and men who have sex with men in the Generation X age range (ages 50 and up). This is not a basic sex education class — it’s a deeper dive into the realities of sex and intimacy as we age.
Over four consecutive Tuesday evenings, Dr. White will guide participants through honest conversations about:
- Sexuality and aging — what’s changing and what doesn’t have to
- Communication skills for dating and relationships
- Navigating hook-up culture as an older gay man
- Understanding non-monogamy and open relationships
- Building confidence and letting go of shame
Who Should Attend
This series is open to all gay, queer, and bisexual men 50 and older who are interested in exploring their sexuality in a supportive, non-judgmental environment. Whether you’re single, partnered, dating, or just curious — this space is for you.
