As we see LGBT people coming out at ever-earlier ages as society changes its perceptions of sexuality, we may forget that it wasn’t always so easy. For the five subjects featured in the inspirational Out Late, various factors led them to wait until they were in their 50s, 60s, and even 70s to publicly state they were gay, lesbian, or transgender.
