Is Grindr even worth it anymore?

I like manly men.

It wasn't worth it before...

That price tag s outrageous, the straights would never get extorted in such a way. Plus, you're basically just paying to filter out all the tr.annies who for sure aren't paying this fee.

That's why having a healthy competition is so important.

R3 I wonder if there are any trannies who set up a GoFundMe to pay for Grindr Xtra.

Grindr is bot central. Nobody real goes there.

R5 All those Chinese guys. “Do you invest? Do you have WhatsApp?”

Ugh. Pay for Grindr?!

I tried it for 5 min. and fled in disgust. Everything was an extra charge and I got inundated with fake inquiries.

People need to stop using it to teach them a lesson. The prices are ridiculous for what they are asking. They want more than my cable bill.

I have nothing against bigger guys who are cute and nice and have good hygiene. I’ve had some great sexual experiences with good looking slightly fat guys. But ugly fat guys are a hard no. And I can’t even imagine why trannies and crossdressers would even have the gall to think they are welcome on an app for gay men looking for men.

I posted this a month or so ago....

Grindr told me to update to a new version, so I did.

Immediately, I could only see the profiles of nine guys.

Even worse, the first three guys were all 20 to 100 miles away (I imagine they are paying to be on "top.")

I live in a college town, and used to have at least 20 guys within a half a mile or so.

Now, I really only have six guys I can see close by.

100% just looking at Scruff now.

Scruff is not much better

Sniffies full of bots too

Why do people ask you if you have Whatsapp and ask to move conversations there? I get approached on fb...

Just wanted to know how they scan so I can watch out for myself

R10, most "crossdressers" i.e. drag queens ARE gay men

You guys are so desperate to pick on trans people that you pretend you haven't heard of drag queens

If you don't like grindr, don't use it

I'm dying to know what you get with Grindr Xtra?

More T!

R14 Drag Queens dress as women for a check, not for sex. Cross dressers and trans are looking for sex on Grinder, or using sex to get a check. Gay men are not attracted to the female form. They are not sexually attracted to stockings and high heels and wigs and lipstick and tits, fake or real. So it is a bit of gaul to go looking for sex on a Gay male website presenting as a woman. The only men who would be into them are the closeted bisexuals with no pics on grinder.

What if you’re looking for T from a T??

R14 if trans people don’t want to be picked on by gay men then they shouldn’t have invaded a community that didn’t belong to them.

Thread closed.

"What if you’re looking for T from a T??"

Never happens.

Trans people can’t have their own app?

R17 - actually it's a lot of the closeted bisexual husbands who are WEARING the CD outfits.

I've seen that a lot on different platforms - 'straight' guys start off being curious, just wanting to see what it's like to suck a dick, etc.

Then a year later - full on admittedly bi, but they're in high heels and fishnets with a Party City wig asking to get fucked. Like WHAT?

For "straight" men, getting fucked or being gay = being a woman. Or a lot of them sure seem to think that way.

I've never heard a gay man go - you know what would be hot? Put on this stuffed bra and some panty hose and wear those grandma heels around the bedroom!

I live in a somewhat Mexican neighborhood in California. For whatever reason, the hot Mexican guys are on Scruff and the “undesirable” Mexican guys (fat, ugly, trannies, crossdressers) are on Grindr. Also, the guys on Grindr seem to be the ones looking for “car play.”

Do you think the trans and CDs on Grindr are there because of the bot activity that they think is real? Or is the trans and CD activity bots?

Look at this reddit post - he's blocking bio WOMEN and others on a gay app, yet they keep coming up under other profiles.

I'm not on Grindr - but the lack of verification through an email or other is stupid as fuck.

Another vote for: Trannies have ruined it. I don't want to see that shit and there's no way to filter them the fuck out.

OP, if you can’t see that you answered your own question…

To be fair, R22, I've never heard a straight man ask a woman to put on pantyhose either. A most unattractive garment.

Imma toss out another theory R24. Maybe the scammers behind the profiles are using female pics, even on a gay app, because they live in a place where they could get in trouble for being in possession of sexually suggestive pics of men.

All the apps are for attractive men, just like bars.

Has your sex addiction gotten so bad that you pay actual money for access to this Chinese government spying apparatus, OP?

r27 - LOL - fair enough - let's just say hose. The panty part really is unattractive.

Just saying - there may be 1:100000 gay men that like seeing men in Party City wigs with hose and bras on - but most do not.

And the guys who DO look good in it - and I've seen some pics - are usually banging anyway and anything looks good on them.

I don't want to see Mr. Roper from Three's Company in women's clothes - or really in anything, but that's not the point. RIP Mr. Roper - no offense

I’ve NEVER used the sex apps. If I want sex I just go to a bathhouse.

At a bathhouse, it's purely luck of the draw and you have to take what you can get, and it's often very slim pickings. Not everyone is satisfied with that. At least in theory, the apps help you find someone you consider appealing.
