This is my 3rd blog and for all those of you that have been reading and keeping
up with me thank you so much and remember spread the word. Now today I want to
talk about something that me and my best friends talk about all the time
because one we are on these sites all the time with what some people may call
"meat shopping" and it’s the gay chat sites ( and I use the term chat
VERY loosely) http://www.adam4adam.com and http://bgclive.com/ these
two sites are the main form of contact between gay men looking to
talk,"chill", networking , and just random hook ups. Because believe
it or not it’s really hard even in this day in age to go somewhere beside local
gay hot spots (clubs and hang outs) and find gay guys because in the "real
world" even someone that maybe totally flamboyant try and hide their sexuality
in pubic and or work places so it seems that cyberspace is our best way for
finding someone gay so in comes A4A and BGC. Let’s Start With Adam4Adam.
They have a very good user interface
which allows you to make a free profile very quick and easy you get a profile title,
you may share your age, weight, penis size and HIV status etc. Now one
main problem with A4A the page itself is not setup for someone who is in the
closet/DL because
the page is filled with ads for gay sex, gay sex toys, Hot Live Guy Waiting for
you and just all out naked guys doing all kind of stuff in the background.
Now the personal search is set up very well me as a bottom I can search for
people in my part of town, if I want one on one, friendship, cam4cam, and 3 sums. I can
also search for tops, versatile guys, just oral whatever tickles
my fancy... I can even search by race now here where highlight of A4A is
comes in for some reason the guys on here are well most are really easy to talk
to. You can leave a message and 90% you get something back be they into you or
not which is a good thing. Now I’m not
going to say guys on there are not without problems, because some guys treat
this site like its ONLY A SEX hook up site and so you MUST get on to
have sex or you are wasting their time. They also seem to treat people
like items on a menu and not REAL people, an last but not least as in for
whatever reason guys be they top bottom what have you they chose to post
totally naked pictures of themselves but at the start of their profiles
they point out " they just looking for friends" or a famous line
" I’m not looking to hookup" which to
this day I just totally don't understand that's like sending
in your resume' to a job but with no intentions of taken the
job!
Now to BGC or Black Gay Chat as it used to be
called there setup its for a account and search pretty much the same but
one big thing is the background and sides are not swimming with gay
ads they may have a ad for a gay event now and again but it seems to be more
setup for closet and non-closet guys which is a good thing. They also let you
customize your personal page with polls, music, backgrounds a lot like MySpace. But the biggest problem with BGC is not the site itself it’s the boogieness it's like people get on
there to express how much everybody else not worth their time and
everyone else is below them like really dude get a life. Instead of
telling people what you're not there for, tell them what you are there for so that way at least people
have a idea of what you like, also a big problem on both sites have is guys
that mislead and contradict themselves by using title versatile but if there profile say
"no one fucking me" you’re not versatile then I’m going to bring this to close now, I
just want to point out that yes YOU maybe on their only looking for sex or
networking please treat people with respect there are REAL people
behind those profile and pictures treat them how you would want them to treat
you!
