This smacks of the same nonsense shown when someone complains of more bottoms than tops in an area (false, and a false binary to boot). There's an odd sexual expectation of aging in our community that needs addressing - the assumption that a queer man switches sex roles to become a top for younger men. Gays half-seriously say I'm a "daddy" now. Yes, there are odd parts of growing older. If I could sit down with that little guy covered in acne who believed beyond a doubt that no one beautiful would love him, I would hardly be able to tell him how many people would pass through his life, people who would save and heal him in every way. I am able now to recognize good love, how it looks under strain, how it grows over time. My list of hurts has grown, but my list of loves has grown much more. But if you're 15 on the edge of 16, or 19 on the edge of your 20s, take heart.
