Follow us. So your gay ass is looking for love. Or sex. Love or sex. Maybe both. Gay dating apps are a scourge. Homosexuality does not make you worse, or better, than the conveniences of modern society. The thing is, they do differ from the standard offerings, even when you are on the standard offerings: the clandestine nature of gay love and a decade of Grindr mean even in the most mundane of places we find a way to switch it up.
I have met some of the most amazing men in my life on apps, and also some of the worst. Nowhere is safe, nowhere is perfect, nowhere is all bad. So here is a guide to the best dating apps and sites out there for love, lust and everything in between.
We all knew we would start here. Miss thing is the standard, the OG, the black monolith that appeared before the chimps in A Space Odyssey and changed the face of man. Got a dick pic!? Grindr, fundamentally, is based around location: men appear in order of descending proximity and everything else goes from there. You can filter by various categories, but fundamentally, the nearer they are the more you will see them.
Get used to seeing the same 30 faces and get used to running into them at Waitrose every Saturday, even after they turned you down. Here you will find the fetishists just trying to indulge their kink totally fine! There are also some interesting additions of recent, including the fact profiles now allow you to mention your preferences about being sent, or receiving, NSFW.
That being said, you may find some people looking for conversation! Nobody came into the digital world looking for the sexual prude police. Judge nobody and dox no one. On the surface, Scruff is Grindr-for-people-with-beards. Scruff also allows for private picture albums, though videos are only allowed for premium customers and sometimes albums, for no good reason, will be locked in part to others even when the user grants permission to a prospective beau. Am I speaking from personal experience?
