CHAPTER OF PRIME TIMERS WORLDWIDE
Who Are Prime Timers?
“Slightly older” gay and bisexual men, and their admirers, who love opportunities to come together in a supportive atmosphere to enjoy social, education, and recreational activities.
Prime Timers was founded in 1987 by retired professor Woody Baldwin. He felt a wide gap existed in today’s society which caters almost exclusively to youth. This worship of eternal youth is never more flagrant than in the gay culture. Woody began the Boston Chapter by placing ads in local newspapers and soliciting his many friends. He expected only a small handful of men to attend the first meeting and was surprised when over 40 showed up. This turnout indicated a need for social and cultural organizations to aid and support gay and bisexual men. Now, this organization has grown to 70+ chapters worldwide, located throughout North America, Europe, and Australia.
