    I was always envious of my gay buddies and their ability to just get it on and not deal with the traditional female vetting process even for hook ups.

    There were some good parody videos on the differences between early Tinder and Grinder dates highlighting them.

    Then I noticed most have the common story that there is no one decent to date locally despite all their good friends being gay.

    The only good ones are out of town or far away across the country. Not sure where it is now but I’m still envious if no matter how hard they try to get pregnant, there isn’t the risk of 20 to life from being truly successful…

        That’s a great point. Often straight guys have lower standards and I was looking at it from that viewpoint. Women often complain most men see all of them as a potential sexual partner and I’m not sure if they are wrong in a lot of cases.

        Still I wonder really there is no one in the whole city, province, or country that is a match? The smaller pool is something I should factor in though if I’m being fair.

        In addition most of my relationships have been with people not originally from the area but neither am I.
