Join a get-together of gay, bisexual and asexual men above the age of 50 as they swap stories over tea in Khar West

As one grows older, it gets difficult to make new friends. Even more so, if you're a gay, bisexual or asexual man, points out Prasad Dandekar, a Mumbai resident who founded a group for such men to support each other.

"Co-founder Ashok Row Kavi and I realised that senior gay/bisexual/asexual men have a lot of unmet needs. A major problem is that they have less and less friends as they get older and tend to get lonely, as they don't have family or avenues to make friends who share their opinions. And so, with Seenagers GupShup group we've organised a lot of health — both physical and mental — events and even one on how to make a will. The name 'seenagers' is a play on the words 'teenagers' and 'seniors' because we want to behave like teenagers when we become older," Dandekar explains.
