Help Me Understand...
I have written a previous article about how the Atlanta gays are quite an intriguing community. Atlanta’s gay community is amazingly fragmented. What I have recently observed has further supported my opinions.
Have you ever turned on Grindr, Scruff, etc. in Atlanta? If not, you should just to enjoy the comedy 😂. If, by chance, you don’t know about these apps, they were created to find a hookup—not for finding the love of your life. When Grindr was first launched, it was easy to find someone to help me fulfill my sexual appetite. Now...it’s a laugh fest. Launch the app and just read the “About Me” sections. The arrogance and pretentiousness is so in your face (and not in a good way!).
You will see things like:
1. Seeking my life companion...
2. Just friends...
3. Under 30 only
4. Massage?
5. Son needs dad for room and more
The list could go on forever.
Let me digress and state that I don’t care if you have preferences on race or age or body. But, what is annoying is when guys say “NO TAPS” or “NO WOOFS”. Face it...most guys in Atlanta are afraid to send a text because most of the recipients don’t reply back or instantly block a person. Why? Because you love to shame others. Most people don’t show their face—they prefer a landscape pic, no pic, pic of a random body part, or a quote. Why? Because Atlanta gays are beyond judgmental. If you don’t fit the perceived sense of physical acceptance, you immediately get rejected.
There are two specific things that if placed in your “About Me” section that immediately causes people to reject you: 1) HIV Poz Undetectable and/or 2) Open Relationship. In Atlanta, if you are either or both of these AND you sent an innocent message to others, they will not respond or they will block you. It goes back to the person being so arrogant, that he thinks you want to fuck him.
Atlanta gays succeed at shaming others. Atlanta gays should remember the words of Judge Judy “Beauty fades; dumb is forever!”. The app cycle is a continuous one where they young reject anybody and everybody; however, in just a few short years, they will be the ones being rejected. They will be the ones feeling rejection.
