Hi José,
I definitely see your point. I'm 39, but have already come to the same conclusion as you have about forming a community of like-minded people instead of waiting for Mr. Right.
The problem I have found when talking to others about this is the difference between fantasy and reality. It's as if by talking about concrete plans, they're admitting that they're getting old, and in gay society this is not something we're supposed to do. Aging doesn't really bother me, but I don't think I'm in the majority.
I'm interested in forming such a community somewhere in the Mediterranean rim, though not necessarily on the sea.

I guess what I understand by "community" is any group of gay men living together as a "family", supporting each other when old age comes and so on... I mean an environment which allows the individual to stop being obsessed with finding "someone special". I mean who needs a boyfriend as a solution to your loneliness when you can have daily sharing with a more or less large group of people around? See my point?

Well I think there are plenty of (substantially) gay households
around. Whether they would count as communities or not is moot.
What does count as a "community"?

weeks, which I'll sooner or later take part of, but I keep wondering
wether there is something like a big gay family sharing everyday life
on a regular basis somewhere in the British Isles, or somewhere else.
