Yesterday a member of one of my choirs, an old white cis-het man, asked me if he could join the #Queermonics - he‘d read about my queer choir in the newspaper. He asked about the repertoire, rehearsal times and then the average age, assuming there are more young people in the Queermonics than in his #choir.
I told him that yes, while we have a handful of members in their fifties, it‘s a mostly young group. He chuckled bc in his choir the members in their 50s are considered the young ones.
