Anybody else notice how OKCUPID seems to be full of...

[Deleted]

Trans people or hipsters using ridiculous labels? Granted I have no issue with Trans people but it seems whenever I look for gay men it's seemingly 30% trans. I also noticed a ridiculous number of people from Russia 'liking' me which brings me to the conclusion it's now a hive of scammers. That's not to mention the ridiculous low number of people online in a 30 mile radius compared to most sites. I'm assuming it's probably more catered to Americans

You wouldn't date a trans dude?

No, I like a man with a fully functioning penis and prostate. I won't deny many are physically attractive and nice BUT I would never be sexually satisfied

Maybe you are the only gay in the village.

I won't deny my location sucks but Manchester and Leeds are both within 30 miles and full of the gays, they just seemingly don't use OKCupid

Its so weird to see a gay man waking up to the world the rest of us have been living in for the past... six years?

Buckle up buckaroo people are trying to legalize incest and bestiality you are only looking at the rabbit hole you haven't jumped down it yet.

There are gay people in Leeds? I thought they would lynch them there, people from Leeds always come across as a bit neolithic.

What's that got to do with anything? Beastiality will never be legal and incest is a grey area already. Don't really see how that's got anything to do with trans, I just find it odd they're tagged under gay men (most other sites have trans as its own section similar to bisexuals) besides it isn't just that but people putting stupid shit like pansexual, queer, nonbinary, etc! It's very odd

Quite the thriving gay scene, probably biggest in Yorkshire. Manchester is still better though

Yeah these days the "sexuality" part looks like the person's ordering a Pizza....

"I'm half cis-genderfluid-sapisosexual-male and half trans-androgonous-trigender-female, with a stuffed crust."

For a society that doesnt' like "labels", people don't half keep coming up with more and more of them.

Im a strong advocate against such labels... Sexuality is fluid as it is and doesn't need pointless labels indicating various degrees of the 3 basic straight gay bi.

Does it not let you filter them out?

[Azadina]

No, haven't noticed really.

[Mistame]

Scammers, for sure. I've had to report quite a few of them. Their dialogue makes it pretty obvious. But the site itself is pretty horrible and is definitely not as actively used as others.

[May90]

I haven't noticed that, but I basically gave up on that website after a few days, since no one seems to be responding to any messages (You signed up on a website for dating, and you don't want to date? WTF?), a lot of profiles look like they were made by 2 years olds, and there just doesn't seem to be many people with interests aligned to mine...

And yes, the website is definitely American-focused. There aren't that many people from other countries there.

It's something I've seen more of on OKC than other sites, but still not a huge number.

Pansexual = Bisexual (That's not how it trully works but that's how most people use it), Queer (Part of the LGBTQ community, why... cause people), Nonbinary (have never meet a person like that, but i think that basically means that you will most likely see him/her using clothes that are not gender specific)

[Theodarzna]

The best us of OKCupid and Tinder is for finding excellent cringe.

[Verdugo]

Wait, what?

Pansexual = Bisexual (That's not how it trully works but that's how most people use it)

Actually, no. A bisexual person, for example, might not be okay with dating a transsexual or a nonbinary, while for a pansexual person it doesn't matter at all, and they look at the personality instead.

Pan sexual includes male, female, and anything else, which includes transsexuals, gender neutrals, etc.
