“
I don’t know that it’s so much an issue of racism as a matter of too many gay men feeling entitled to tell others who they want to come to them; they replace the “about me” section of any app profile with a “what I want from you” section.
It’s pretty fucking annoying, actually:
NO FATS … NO FEMMES … ONLY HUNG … NO ONE OVER 25/30/40 … ONLY WHITE … ONLY LATINO … NO ASIAN … NO BLACK
Then there’s also:

BE INTERESTING … IMPRESS ME … HAVE A COLLEGE DEGREE … HAVE $$$ … BE THIS, BE THAT …
Fuck you. Seriously, fuck you.
The best thing about those types of profiles is that those “About me” sections tell me everything I need to know: you’re stuck up, self-obsessed and too narrow-minded to see all the potential opportunities around you. And in five years, you’ll be on someone else’s “NO” list.
Also, you might be racist.

Are “whites only” & “no blks no azns” dating profiles actually racist?

I like to make jokes about it because it’s such a *thing* that you can’t help but laugh. To me, I just don’t understand it. How can you not be attracted to any person who is not white? How can you look at the wide variety of black men on this planet and say they are all uniformly unattractive? I think that’s crazy and it makes me chuckle.

But is it really racist? Let’s look at it from both sides.

Rambling Wednesdays: Guys with restricted diets are the worst.

I’ll try anything once and there’s probably a 70% chance that I’ll like it. I don’t consider myself a foodie or even the most well-rounded eater because I do have things that I don’t like:

olives
cucumbers (except sushi dishes)
watermelon (all melon really, but especially watermelon)
coconut flakes
beets (except a really good beet salad)

But you see how small the list is? If your list of things you do like is the same length as my list of dislikes, then this just ain’t gon’ work.

I’m not good at dating broke people anymore.

I am a poor New Yorker. I have a roommate and a budget. Before my paychecks even come, I’ve already set aside percentages for rent, bills, groceries, short-term savings, long-term savings, and miscellaneous drinking, eating-out, shopping, etc. But I do have paychecks and I spend them wisely, because I am poor, not broke.

And if you are broke, I can’t date you.

All of my relationships are too one-sided. On one side, there’s me.

The End.

Look at this photo.

Oh look, another Grindr knock off.

Hornet.

Just small pricks I’m guessing.

Let me tell you why there is no male birth control pill.

Because WOMEN, not men, physically have the actual baby. The End.

Grindr for lesbians is called Brenda.

Brenda though? Is that the best lesbian name they could think off? Did nobody in that marketing meeting propose “Scissr” or is that too much? Because I think that’s dope.

Either way, I’m clearly downloading this, and not in that whole obnoxious straight girls who download Grindr to find gay bffs sort of way.

I’ma get me a lezwifey.
Lesbians love alladis.
