This is a place for people over forty to hang out among their similar-age peers.
There is a very broad range of subject matter relevant to this community. Are you over 40? Is something on your mind? Then posting about it here is probably ok. There's a lot of discussion about nostalgia, but this is by no means intended to be a "nostalgia only" community. Discussions about living in today's world as an over 40, personal struggles you are having that you want to share with other people of a similar age, politics, religion and sex are all more then welcome. I hope we as the "grown ups" on livejournal don't need a lot more rules then that in order to keep things running smoothly. Of course, I would hope common sense would lead everyone to treat other posters in a respectful manner, without denigrating into personal attacks. If those type of things do arise, they'll be dealt with on a case by case basis.
