Bit of a ramble but I've noticed more people have been moving to here (LPSG). The phone apps don't allow for enough privacy that closeted men prefer, and let's be real, no matter how "straight" you may be (since we all know gay men love their "straight" men) if you're not close to a 10 in the looks department, you will not be successful on the gay phone apps. Gay men judge and rate men much like straight men judge and rate women. This is one of the reasons why I think "straight" men aren't interested in dating other men because if you're say a 5 in looks, you can still land a decent amount of attractive women. If you're a dude who's a 5 in looks trying to date another man - forget about it (lol). They know dating women is easier.
Because of the above, I also think it's going back to regular cruising.
Not my experience in gay phone apps at all. I am far from a 10, and I have to schedule hook ups 2 to 3 weeks in advance to keep up with demand. It’s as much about “game” online as it is in person. Are there guys online who are looking for a particular physical type and nothing else who ignore or block me? Sure, but I just move on. In fact, they save me time by self-deselecting. I’ve hooked up with guys through apps who are 10s who complain that they can’t get laid. It has a lot less to do with looks than people think. It’s counterintuitive, but having a “fuckable” personality online matters - a lot.
