While I understand the point you are trying to make, painting with broad brushes doesn't help.

Believe it or not, many people who are not members of DU and who are above the age of 60 are supports of gay rights.

While many people like to point that this may be a generational thing, I don't believe so. I believe it is a fear thing. Fear of all things different. And age doesn't not play a roll in that.

I have met and have known both young and old who fear gay people.

It has nothing to do with age, but instead ignorance.
