I finally did it, the “big” switch. It was a difficult choice, and one that I’d been debating for years, but now that I have my slick-looking videophone, I’m not sure how I ever lived without it–or Grindr, the gay GPS.
The iPhone allows you a variety of applications to download, some are free and other range anywhere from 99 cents to $12 or more. The first hour after getting my Mexican paws on mine, I downloaded approximately 30 apps, one of which was Grindr. It’s hook-up central, skanky, tasteless and very impersonal–and I’m on it 24 hours a day. What? Don’t judge.
Even their description tries to mask the vulgar transactions going on but you and I can read between the lines: Meet Guys Near You With Grindr.
Because these men are a new type of gay; advanced
The go-to place for gay, bi, and curious men to meet, the location-based Grindr is FREE, FAST, and FUN. It uses GPS technology in your iPhone and WiFi in iPod Touch to determine your exact location and instantly connect you with guys in your area. Simply launch Grindr to see local guys (the closest appear first) and view varfГ¶r italiensk flickor Г¤r vackra pictures, stats, and map locations at a tap. It’s that easy. And since Grindr doesn’t ask for your email address or require account registration, it’s totally discreet. So come on, see who’s available NOW on Grindr.
Oh, what a filthy application, right? “At a tap,” they say, we know what kind of “tapping” they’re referring to! And I just can’t seem to click off of it. It’s great to know there are so many gay men all around and to know you might have a sexual encounter with anyone in the room, no matter where you are; well, that’s just the beauty of technology; now we know how Tiger Woods felt every time he went to Las Vegas.
This location-based app allows gay men to click it open, sign on and find all the other gay men–also on Grindr–within a small radius of each other
Don’t get me wrong, I’m not on there to have sexual relations, I’m only on Grindr for research purposes. Honest. They don’t have time for profiles or constant chit-chat. That’s why they’re on Grindr. They click it open, sign on, look at the photos and how far these guys are from them and “grind.” I was in Barnes & Noble the other day with a friend–showing him how fun it was–when a few guy’s locations read: o feet away! He and I started looking around trying to match real people with the naked bodies they posted. It was the best time ever!
Want to know a little seedy fun fact? I was on Grindr last Friday and simultaneously logged onto a porn site when all of a sudden, I recognized the guy in the amateur porn as being 885 feet away from me. I shot him a quick hello and now I have a friend in the area not only on Grindr but who also offered to film my erection if I ever wanted it filmed. Wasn’t that sweet? Where else could I establish such a quick bond with a friendly amateur porn star like that? These guys aren’t looking for an LTR (long term relationship), just a quick “hit ’em from the back with no strings attached” and they deserve it, after all this isn’t 2007, it’s 2010 and it’s not eHarmony, it’s Grindr, baby, the Gay GPS, for the newly advanced gay
