As a pansexual man, men are the worst. If it wasn't mandated by evolution, I don't know why women would put up with us.

[–] Ifera@lemmy.world 35 points 14 hours ago (3 children)

Ugh, casual sexism. Look at the bottom of the barrel, and judge an entire gender by the way those behave.

A lot of guys, gay or otherwise, don't think or behave like that. And by your own definition, you're also the worst. Sucks to have that terrible self esteem, but don't lump me up with your self-hating ass

[–] frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Try an experiment: go on Fetlife and setup a profile as a fem. Start collecting DMs. It might be enlightening.

And by your own definition, you’re also the worst.

Yes, you're very smart.

[–] Ifera@lemmy.world 20 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (2 children)

Open garbage can > Look in > Mostly garbage.

How very insightful of you, mate.

There are some amazing people in FetLife, and in Grindr too. But like I said before, looking at the very bottom of the barrel and judging a whole gender based on it, that is beyond stupid.

[–] frezik@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 14 hours ago (3 children)

Funny how I never seem to have these issues with fems and non-binary people. Even the ones who grew up masc. In fact, most of the problems there are a direct result of really shitty behavior from men and trying to cope with it.

Instead of going "not all men", maybe try to point out shitty behavior? Maybe one day, we can get past all this.

[–] Ifera@lemmy.world 11 points 14 hours ago (2 children)

I point out shitty behavior, no matter the source. Hence why I am pointing out your very shitty behavior, that you're too biased to even comprehend.

The point is, if 10% of guys in a given population are unspeakably awful, that’s the 10% who you will hear from on a dating app. You don’t get that from fems because they are typically being pursued on all dating and social media apps, because we still largely hold to the cultural norm that men/masc presenting people are responsible for asking the other person out.

It seems worse on Grindr because the majority of users are cis men-the very people who have been told since birth that it’s their job to pursue sexual connections. Of course that leads to poor behavior.

[–] rishado@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago

There's no winning with you. You argue with the same logic as a trump supporter.

As a human being, human beings are the worst. If it wasn't for our tendency to completely dominate our environments, I don't know why the world would put up with us.

That’s how you end up with the nightmare that seemed really real…or with the next conversation that ends up on Grindr’s Greatest Hits compilation.

You guys actually get matches?

Goddamn. Here I am in straight world with exactly one match in an entire year that wasn't a bot.

Eh

Fuck it the apps are scams anyway

[–] andros_rex@lemmy.world 24 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

If you download Grindr, you too can have an inbox full of poorly lit bathroom dick pics and people asking you if you know where they can get hard drugs!

It’s less a “dating” app, and more a way for “straight” men in denial of their sexuality to find dl fun.

[–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 10 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Almost makes me wish I was gay. Getting some strange would be easier at least lol

Sounds like you need to work on your profile and set of pics. Many years ago I logged into PoF as a woman and was stunned at how bad the other guy's profiles were.

  • Write something humorous, make your post amusing, doesn't have to be LOL funny

  • Don't list anything you find unacceptable, too negative

  • Don't list anything you have to have in a partner, too demanding

  • Post a wide variety of pics, get a couple of your very best, but get some day-to-day pics in there, looks more honest that way

  • Also post pics where you're in action, engaged in an activity you like, write about activities you enjoy, show yourself doing those things

  • NO: Guns, dead animals, motorcycles, trucks or other vehicles you wish to show off

  • No pics that include other women, no matter who they are. I'd try to leave male friends out as well.

  • Don't talk about being lonely, wanting to share your life with someone, nothing emotional, sounds needy, that comes later

  • No need to come with your life story, they're reading your profile to see if you're an interesting person today, not where you came from

  • Do what I did and sign in as the opposite sex (sorry, been assuming you're a man looking for a woman), read their dumb profiles, don't do those things

  • Once you get it down, splatter that profile across several websites. You catch more fish with multiple hooks in the water.

  • One final note, when you get matches, chat very briefly, ask for the date. Women out there are seriously frustrated with guys that seem to only want to talk, talk, talk. Get that date set before someone bolder asks her out!

Sorry for making so many assumptions. If this doesn't help you, maybe someone else can get use out of it. For context, I was 50-53 and pulling so many dates the neighbors were making fun of me over all the women in and out of here. Also, I'm short and scrawny, non-rich and my vehicles are 20+ years old. :)

Some of these are definitely up to your own personal preference.

Plenty of MAGA chicks on Tinder in my area that, themselves, have pics of their guns, dead animals and trucks. I'm sure they'd love all the country bros that do the same.

But then again, I don't think anyone on Lemmy wants to attract those people.

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 4 points 10 hours ago

Huh. Well. I guess I'm doing everything right then.

Maybe the photos need a lot of work. That will be challenging.

[–] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 4 points 8 hours ago

NO: Guns, dead animals, motorcycles, trucks or other vehicles you wish to show off

Dang it so no train pics I take it?

No pics that include other women, no matter who they are. I’d try to leave male friends out as well.

See I've heard the opposite advise. A non-cover photo of you with some friends including non-male friends if you have any indicates you're not a loner and might have some idea of how to talk to other humans

Grindr doesn't have matching. You just see a profile you like and message them directly.

That's probably why it actually works.

I met my wife on IRC. Try that!

Grindr doesn't really have a "match" system. You can send a message to anyone whose profile you can see (unless/until they block you). Think of it less like a traditional dating app and more like an interactive billboard of horny people in your area.

[–] BackgrndNoize@lemmy.world 3 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Why isn't there a straight version of that lol

[–] raptorattacks@lemmy.world 5 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Multiple answers to that question:

  • There are women on Grindr - in my experience, mostly trans women or m/f couples looking for a third. So men can find straight sex on Grindr, but it's rare. Women are definitely a scant minority of the users.
  • There are plenty of "straight" men on Grindr. You'd have to ask them why - I usually block them.
  • The reason why dating apps marketed towards straight people don't allow this kind of messaging (and the reason there aren't more women on Grindr) is because women, generally speaking, won't put up with the same kind of shit that gay men will. A straight dating app where men could send horny messages and dick pics to every woman they saw wouldn't have any women using it.

Or it would have the horniest, sluttiest women in the world just like Grindr has me 🤷‍♂️

I know from experience that the fuckshed dudes know how to fuck good. Their fuck shed is usually even nicer than the bedroom in their house/apartment.
