For a long time i thought Gaydar was a whole pile of shite, but i did make some mates from it,
and had lots of laughs to boot....and 2 1/2 yrs ago i met the love of my life on gaydar, just
when i was about to give up!!!! oh, and we are still together....:}} xxx

Ad fab article, to the point to say the least. Have a look at facebook, it's like the blonde
out of L words diagram of Shanes lovers.
I joined gaydar, and pinksofa for a while (1
month each), and decided the best way to meet someone is to get of your backside, bite the
bullet and meet people for real. I to met 3 women, 1=not the full ticket but nice, blocked from
my phone, 2=bullshiter 3=alcholic. And I really do think only 1 was over her ex. Call me
sceptical, I tried, but NOT for me.
However on the positive side, whilst being out with
'real people' I bumped into a girl who I had seen on gaydar but did not message. We got
chatting, and she said she had had a much worse experiance, ie stalked, and had removed herself
from the site as she felt it was not for her. She's georg, and the spark is there, all because
of gaydar being a common link.
Don't get me wrong, there are lots of genuine women on the
dar,or just use it a way of breaking the monotomy of the day and are looking for
like.
However, just be carefull, try parship just to see your personality type, that bit is
free.
I'd love to type in one well nutty persons username, but it's for you to find
out.
Well, I can honestly say, I know what it's like getting in at night feeling knackered,
it's much less hassle to switch your computer, on than to get up and out, or ring a
number.
Cum on girls life is for living, not saying how you want to live it, before we get
to old and gunti!

When I first joined site abt 3 years ago (back in the free days) I loved it, made friends,
found out more abt myself and what I liked and what I really didn't. Only ever met 1 girl off
there who was lovely but there wasn't a click and ashamed to say it I might have been one of
those not over ex's types (ok I really really was one). I never bothered to upgrade as things
died down a lot when they started charging. Now users seem a bit more demanding since they are
paying for the service and people aren't always as friendly. But your article was pretty true
and had me smiling - cheers xx

The best comment I read was Jess', it said "You can't blame site for a society"
Plus,
generalizing is not a smart thing to do. There's always gold buried everywhere ;-)

Wow, well Gaydargirls for me is a safe place to be out. I can't be out as my family wouldn't
approve and the consequences not good for my life. This way I can chat with like minded people
and know I don't have to watch my back hand holding. I agree with the comment that you can't
blame gaydar for society. At least the site is monitored. And, today April 2008 there is an
online counselling service that Gaydargirls are running with PACE a wellbeing and mental health
charity. So, I can have a chat with a qualified counsellor through the site. I can't visit
during the day as freedom isn't always that easy. Yes some people don't get what they want from
the site, but there are those who don't write on these boards that do get what they need, i.e
somewhere safe to have fun and get friendly or more with others. I know gaydar gives me a
chance to talk to people all over the world that I would never meet at a bar in the town I live
in. Nuff said.

well ive just join gay dar. this was a very funny and true piece. had me laughin all the way
through.

Posted by sammy, at 21:56 on Sat, Aug 11th

gaydargirls,what a pile of wank, most of them are men making out to be women or bi ladies
wanting 3 sums, then you have the strange girls that aint over their ex, on a rebound, women
wanting to go clubbing all the time, people claiming they are at college when they aint,they
are on the dole, woman saying their gf cheated on em when really its lies,they've never had a
gf before, women saying they big tits, yet when you get chatting to em they admit they spent
3,000 and on em and 6,000 on a fanny job!! its just totally crazy, i have never met so many
strange women in my life time as what i have on there. their pics don't even look like most of
them,they claim to hate players yet thats all they ever do..wellllllllll i just don't
know!!...its not a site for me!!

Posted by Hays, at 12:16 on Fri, Aug 10th

Haha...i love the Do's/Don'ts guide! I have been a Gaydargirls member for about 4 years on and
off. Yet i only paid for two months to use the 'extra features' before deciding they were
totally unnecessary! I DID however meet my partner (ex) through the site. Though whether i
should be grateful of that im still in doubt... My online 'dating' experiences are crap to sum
it up, people are rarely who they appear to be but i find myself asking if thats only
exclusively true to online dating? I mean dont we all try and impress when we meet someone we
like whether its online or not?

another great article. so funny. keep it up lovegirls, love the site

Posted by hara, at 19:39 on Wed, Aug 8th

the journalist certainly gets about, what will sex in toilets, and sex with teenagers not
cruising for girls on gaydar,,, but then she is fit so prob can get away with it

Posted by noromevian, at 15:25 on Wed, Aug 8th

i just get bored so talk to new people. had a few intrests but then i met now my gf n didnt
want anyone else. weve been goin out 6 months so i think it is wat it is just an oppertunity to
met a wider range of gay people just depends on who u meet whether its a good experience or not

I am the love of noodle's life. What she doesn't know is that I've already told everyone how we
met... ;-)
love the article. too true...

Posted by Noodle, at 14:33 on Wed, Aug 8th

I met the love of my life on Gaydar...not that anybody knows because I'm waaaay too embarrassed
to tell anyone. Even I'm now convinced I met her 'through friends'...

Posted by Shelby, at 03:34 on Wed, Aug 8th

I haven't tried GaydarGirls and don't need to. I loved your article babe. xxx

Posted by Kelly, at 21:10 on Tue, Aug 7th

Brilliant article but Gaydar is shit. Most dating sites are crap but at least you can chap up
a girl from the comfort of your own home with a cuppa. Plus if you get drunk theres no chance
of throwing up on your love intrests shoes or making too much of a twat of yourself.

Posted by emma, at 13:56 on Tue, Aug 7th

I have had my gaydar profile for about 3 yrs and remember when it was free!!

I havent
bothered becoming a member and paying the extra i just use my basic profile.

I have
made loads of mates of there and my girlfriend (soon to be wife from next year) i met on there
2 yrs ago.

so once you get through the crap people you can find some good friends or
even love like me!!

BIG IT UP GAYDARGIRLS!!!

Gaydargirls.......whadda pile of shite !!!

Posted by Amy, at 12:23 on Tue, Aug 7th

Gaydargirls is the shyt .... girls on there carry on like they are GOD's gift ....what the
f!ck. But when you see the same girls in places like G-A-Y, they are just a bunch of chavvy
mingers. All have the same hairstyle, wearing the same style of clothing and cursing with the
same words ....heck NO!!!! I wouldn't go near anyone on that site.

Posted by nico, at 11:40 on Tue, Aug 7th

oooh,i just burst out laughing at 'gunt'...pity i'm in my uni library.....

Posted by Becks, at 11:37 on Tue, Aug 7th

Must be said there is something about window shopping lesbians on a site like gaydar..but its
hard work finding someone normal..and I don't get why people in relationships go on
there..sorry is that just me? I paid for one month.. won't be paying for anymore...

Posted by Jess, at 05:53 on Tue, Aug 7th

I met my wife on the site (australia).. I also met some real dickheads on there. Unfortunately,
you can't blame a site for a society. Until the community cleans up the act, it's not going to
get any better.

Posted by Brooke, at 05:17 on Tue, Aug 7th

I have had a few experiences on gayday that have been awful lol but the most recent has turned
into a fairytail.... i have met the girl of my dreams and we have been together 6 strong months

Posted by Leah, at 02:18 on Tue, Aug 7th

I have had a gaydar girls profile for like 6 years haha! I first joined to make friend in the
lesbian world and what not. Finally one day I decided to meet someone from it (I hadn't met
anyone in person yet) and we have been together for two years now. I dont really like gaydar
girls now that I have someone and I dont pay the money for the extra features. I prefer myspace
now to make friends and what not but all up no not really into gaydar girls, and if I do log on
its for about 5 mins every 3 months or so!!

Posted by annemarie, at 01:37 on Tue, Aug 7th

hello from sydney, used to use gaydar years ago when it was free, but in saying that, because
it was free alot of pychos started to use it and you werent too sure whether the girl you were
talking to was really a girl! Started to use Pink Sofa more when the changes happened on gaydar
girls and i'm not paying english pound for a site that isnt working for me personally.

Posted by Nina, at 01:07 on Tue, Aug 7th

Well I must say, the article is a laugh...but on a more serious note, I first came to gaydar to
meet like minded people, as friends or more, oh well, I didn't really care that much. My
profile says a lot about me and I haven't been bothered by weirdos that much, aren't I lucky?
What I have met tho is 3 or 4 decent people and my lovely gf. As I said, I wasn't particularly
looking for a relationship (but I am very happy now), Gaydar was just a chance for me to get to
know more people as the place I live in has nothing! Most girls I know are on GDG, most are
guests. I have no intentions of paying again for membership, but I have done in the past.

I guess it depends on you as a person and how you lay out your profile. I say...don't
knock it 'til you've tried it!

Posted by Orla, at 00:47 on Tue, Aug 7th

I had very good experiences with gaydar i hav never had a date offa it but i hav made a load of
friends off it who i see all the time an we are very close i duno i meet people out its jst im
more confidant wen im in my own surroundings lol i duno y but anyways i dont pay 4 mine im a
cheapo and get the free one lol its orla_4eva is that a good enough name lol

Posted by Tracey, at 22:02 on Mon, Aug 6th

I unfortunately have not had a good time with gaydar I managed to get some girl messaging some
pretty nasty sh*t when I had no clue who she was (no I had not slept with her gf or slept with
her and forgotten well I don't think so) infact it appeared that she was mistaking me for
someone else but wouldn't believe me when I told her I had no idea who she was! Psycho! That
and the stuck up girls I've just given up with that crap.

Posted by natalie, at 21:20 on Mon, Aug 6th

HAAAA!! i would just like to say how fantastically this article has been written!! i haven't
stopped laughing especially at the do's and don'ts section thank you for the humorous read! x

Posted by nicole, at 21:11 on Mon, Aug 6th

well i personally dont use gaydar girls now but i did like 3yrs ago and met some cool mates on
there, and i also met my gf on there and were still together so want do u guys know? it can
work and sometimes it wont? give it a try!

Posted by Jodie, at 20:12 on Mon, Aug 6th

I have had the sort sort of problems on gaydar too. it can get very disheartening at times, so
now I'm a limited member and don't pay the £5. lol. P.s you should save your fiver every month
and come out with me instead as you seem a nice person.
Hope you find someone
special

You're article made me laugh outloud! 'Gunt'??!!!! heehee! I haven't been on Gaydargirls, but I
may just have to have a look now!
:p

Posted by Kaye, at 19:17 on Mon, Aug 6th

Haven't been on there for at least 2 years or so. Found it boring and some of the people a bit
weird. Prefer to meet friends/girls in the real world

Posted by Chloe, at 19:13 on Mon, Aug 6th

I am surprised to see people slating Gaydargirls - how many girls do you know WITHOUT a gaydar
profile?!! So many of us are lonely souls, looking to meet new mates, potential dates and
sometimes we're just plain bored of an evening and it takes the pain away from watching the
soaps on telly!

Surely most girls are not stupid, hell I can spot a man masquerading
as a girl a mile off! And if there's a see you next tuesday shot, I avoid the profile or laugh
about it with my mates on msn.

Use it for what it is - somewhere you can have a bit of
a giggle, chat to people when you're having a boring night or if you're really too shy to
approach someone in a bar you could always message them online. It's easier being knocked back
online than in person.

I met 2 gfs on here and had really good relationships. I'd
never have approached either of them in a bar.

SO stop moaning girls, you know you all
love a bit of the ol' Gaydargirls really!

Posted by VioletPickles, at 17:58 on Mon, Aug 6th

full of men masquerading as women and married women looking for a bit of ladylove on the side.
Some of the pictures on there leave very little to the imagination. I met my gf at a pink sofa
social in manchester, It's a much more tasteful regulated site

Posted by TheCanadian, at 17:50 on Mon, Aug 6th

I've actually never been on that site O.o I was on this one site and ironically I met a very
good friend of mine from there. We're always lending advice and such.

Posted by Amy, at 17:36 on Mon, Aug 6th

Gaydar is a waste of time n money if u ask me, there is far better websites out there that dnt
cost owt if ur into tht thing, and yeah ur £125 could av been better spent me bein a women only
escort and all, lol

Posted by lucy, at 17:11 on Mon, Aug 6th

I am loving the tips! Proper funny!!

I've been on gaydar for bloody years - don't pay
for it though!!! I got right into it all for about 6months - but now I check it probably about
once every 4 months if I remember!

The site is shit - most of the women on there that
you get messages from are slightly weird + dont read what you like cos they just look at your
pic... Obviously met some lovely folk on there!!!!

Posted by Kate P, at 16:56 on Mon, Aug 6th

Pink Sofa - far friendlier, far less toxic!

Posted by lyn, at 16:55 on Mon, Aug 6th

ive been a member 4 a while i only go on 2 chat 2 friends. i find theres alot of fake and there
only after getting young girls for 3sums with there hubys or bf. i think its a cheap knocking
shop and girls should be warned ppl arnt who they say they are and pics from other sites can be
stolen and used so unless yr there 2 chat 2 m8s i say its aload of shit and not worth 5 quid a
month xxx :P

Posted by beenie, at 16:28 on Mon, Aug 6th

i have been a guest member on gaydargirls for 2 years 2 weeks after i signed up i met my
partner...we r gettin married in march 2008. yes there are a lot of people that jus want to
shag about or bitch about things/people on there and it is really hard to get involved in the
chat rooms as most people jus ignore you but there are some nice genuine people to you jus got
to spend the time to find them.
there is hope!!!

Posted by Cotia, at 16:19 on Mon, Aug 6th

I have found gaydargirls to be quite good, I have made 2 really good friends out of it, I met a
girlfriend of 7 months on there and the contacts on there helped me plan my dissertation, i
also found participants to interview. I think if you take it for what it is and don't rely on
it as a wife finding tool its fine!

Posted by Digital, at 16:17 on Mon, Aug 6th

My limited "taken" experience of gaydar is a poor one, it's full of kids talking crap (online
chat) and not particularly friendly. I only come online to chat and to brake up the boredom of
work....

They could use some competition.... LGDating Perhaps?

Posted by Pringle, at 16:12 on Mon, Aug 6th

you could've saved money each month but paying for a years subscription, it's £45! haha

Posted by kelly curgenven, at 16:06 on Mon, Aug 6th

yeah i agree its a shit site but i have met quite a few friends on there that i wouldnt have
met if it wasnt 4 gaydar! so yeah its bit of a shite site but it is a good opportunity to meet
gay people in ur area as there is only 1 gay bar where i am! so its bit of both!!!
