Gay Retirement Homes Are a Bust
"RainbowVision has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, wracked by financial problems and an increasingly bitter dispute between its residents and management. Its problems mirror those of many other gay retirement communities around the country that have either failed to open or fallen on hard times, victims of a weakened housing market, a deflated economy and, in some cases, poor business decisions."
—Ugh, now we're all just going to die on the streets, with all our cats and cute furniture, while you straight people have all the resentful children to barely support you in your older years.
I guess this also rules out an all-LGBT remake of "Cocoon".
You got room on that adorable couch for some childless straight folks? You can have some of my mouthwash.
There's a historically gay/trans retirement home in Oakland that serves unlimited mimosas on Sunday in their restaurant.
Poor gaychitecture :(
Poor business decisions? This flies in the face of my stereotypes about gays.
@deepomega How many gays do you know?
@DoctorDisaster I am president of the Gay Chamber of Commerce.
@deepomega This flies in the face of my stereotypes about you.
@DoctorDisaster You don't have to be gay to be president of the Gay Chamber of Commerce, double dee. You just need to love business and blowjobs.
On the plus side? Great garage sale deals on Fiestaware.
We got a a mailer from one of these places, and they don't take pets.
The oldest gay and lesbian retirement community in the U.S. is the Palms of Manasota, located in Palmetto, FL about half way (half an hour at most to each city) between St. Petersburg and Sarasota on the Florida Peninsula's Gulf Coast. The original part of this well-keptcommunity of attractive single family homes is still functioning well. There are several homes for resale in this community in the $150-190,000 price range.
