Elderly Homophobic Snorer in Retirement Home Adopts Child

Not Really. Actually the new edition of 50plus Online Magazine (www.50plusMag.com) features 3 new provocative articles on its homepage that includes those words: Homophobia in Retirement Communities: Snoring and How to Reduce it; and Adopting a Child When You are Past 50.

(PRWEB) March 18, 2005 -- This months edition of 50plus Online Magazine (www.50plusMag.com) continues to separate itself from other sites directed to the 50+/senior audience by focusing on contemporary issues and viewing them from a 50+ perspective.

"Homophobia in Retirement Communities"

50plus Online Magazine (www.50plusMag.com) organized another round table discussion with older gays and lesbians. The topic this time was homophobia and its presence in senior facilities.

They all agreed if you let anyone know about your sexual orientation you were asking for trouble. The fear of being discriminated against is very real. The ones that find it really difficult are the women who are masculine and the men who are feminine.

"Snoring and Ways to Reduce it"

Snoring can be a cause of marital discord. Often hostilities are covered up with humor. 50plus Online Magazine reports on the top 10 ways to reduce snoring and offers tips for the person trying to sleep next to the snorer.

"Adopting a Child When You are Past 50"

Taking on parenthood in your 50s (or beyond) comes with some unique challenges -- Flagging energy, ones own ailing parents, and impending retirement, to name a few. But the pluses can outweigh the minuses. According to older adoptive parents, it's worth every extra gray hair.

Sometimes the articles are serious and sometimes theyre funny or irreverent," says Gary Geyer, Editor of 50plus Online Magazine. Our articles are always interesting, entertaining and relevant.

50plus Online Magazine (www.50plusMag.com) never shies away from controversy", says Geyer. We have always said there is more to us than Davy Crockett hats, arthritis and dentures."

"Dennis Quaid: It Hasnt Been Easy"

The 50+ celebrity featured in this edition is Dennis Quaid, who barely made the 50+ cut having just turned 50 last April. Dennis had it all: Drug addiction, a bad marriage and a failing career.

"YAPS (Yappies) We are No Longer Boomers, We are YAPS!"

There is also an updated article from the previous edition called, We Are No Longer Boomers. We are YAPS." (Thats Youthful, Active, Pre-Seniors.)

There was quite a lot of interest in our claim that the term boomers" is an archaic term, describing who we were, not who we are today," says Geyer.

"Brain Squeezers"

Included in this edition are two new Brain Squeezers, a popular feature that gives your brain cells a workout. (The one called Killer Test" is particularly weird.)
