UPDATE…

NEVER MIND – Grindr is useless… My “discreet” profile ad was deleted. All I said was I was “uninhibited top” looking for a no-strings fuck. Looking at their guidelines 1) “Explicit sexual words and slang are expressly prohibited”, and 2) “Mention of unsafe sex is expressly prohibited”. I can sorta understand #1 given that they have to pass Apple’s “family friendly” policies for the app store. But #2 is just gratuitous nonsense since #1 more than covers #2…

So bottom line – forget about Grindr… Given Apple’s policies I’m not sure there ever will be a decent iPhone app for anonymous sex. There needs to be one, but Apple has a draconian control over what goes on the iPhone…

Came across an iPhone app today that’s worth mentioning – Grindr. Bascially it lets you see who’s near you. While it’s meant to be more of a “social networking” sorta thing, there’s no reason it can’t be used for anonymous hookups. It’s easy enough to post that you’re looking to seed hole or looking for loads.

I’ve been wanting something like this to come along so when I’m downtown I can see what holes are nearby who will take my load. You literally could hookup with someone 5 minutes after practically zero discussion. “Wanna load?”, “Sure – here’s my address…” Of course most of the guys on there aren’t hardcore barebackers, but that’s what the favs button is for 😉

I’ve only been playing with it for like 20 minutes. Anyone have more experience with it? Are there any downsides to using it? It doesn’t appear to give away your cell number or anything…

Anyway, when I’m downtown and up for hooking up I’ll be using it. When I’m home (uptown) I’ll be keeping the profile more discreet…

Oh – one other thing – don’t get banned from using it… Keep the photos clean – no nudity (frontal or rear) is allowed… Face and chest shots are OK…
