Abstract
This is an oral history interview with two gay men who live in a gay/lesbian retirement community in Florida, the first such community in the United States. Both interviewees tell their life stories, discussing their ex-wives, children, and careers and describing how they came out (voluntarily revealed their sexual orientation) later in life. Most of the interview focuses on life in the community: relationships with neighbors, social activities, etc.
