When author Totally Tyler hit Mixx Atlanta with Brushstrokes on his book tour last month, he also screened a hilarious slideshow of Grindr finds. We asked if we could share it with our readers, and he happily agreed. Here's his introduction, followed by his real-life screen captures and commentary:
For those of you that have been living under a rock – or in a red state — Grindr is a smart phone social application for gay men that uses GPS to detect the distance of other members. It’s a great way to
hook up meet your neighbors.
The question remains whether a person of dateable merit can be found on Grindr. I’ve met plenty of friends, but will I ever find the man of my Grindr dreams? Who knows, but until then, I’ve been saving screen caps of funny or creepy Grindr profiles and my interactions with them. Click each pic in the image gallery below for my comments.
Former Atlantan Totally Tyler is a Manhattan-based blogger on gay life and love and the author of “Your Boyfriend and Other Guys I’ve Kissed: The Tails of Totally Tyler.” Watch our video interview with him, and let us know if you’d like to see more.
