Can Gay Men Use Bumble- The New Dating App?
Last Updated on August 2, 2023
A few former Tinder employees broke away from their roots to commence their own Tinder competitor: a new dating application called Bumble.
In terms of plan and interface, Bumble is almost identical to Tinder. Everything from profile pages, settings, and gestures are all the same.
Of course, the main difference between Tinder and Bumble is that on Bumble, girls hold the power. So you’re probably wondering if and how gay men can use Bumble.
Like on Tinder, two people first have to “like” each other before any pair can be made.
However, with Bumble, the girl then has to make the first relocate by sending a communication otherwise no communication between the guy and lady can be exchanged. If the woman doesn’t message you, the match disappears forever.
Men have the option to pick *one* girl they match with per night and extend that suit an additional 24 in hopes that she just might send him a message.
So then, what if you aren’t looking for girls?
How does this work with gay men?
Well if you squint and examine the fine print, you will see they address that question
Bumble’s Inclusive Gender Individuality Options
Here Are Bumble’s Inclusive Gender Culture Options
At Bumble, we’re dedicated to creating an app that’s as inclusive as possible for our community. We’re constantly seeking new ways to make sure your experience is both positive and empowering.
We partnered with the experts at GLAAD, a media advocacy organization developing lesbian, gay, pansexual, transgender, and gay (LGBTQ) acceptance, to better provide a space that allows everyone across the gender spectrum to feel safe and seen. With GLAAD's guidance, people can now share more about their gender identities and sexual orientations, enabling them to better show themselves in ways that best convey who they are. Whether you’re identity new to Bumble and just setting up an account, or you’ve used our app before but wish to expand about who you are, how you show up is up to you.
Now, when asked about gender either when registering for a new profile or updating your profile, you can select man, girl, or nonbinary. Once a gender is selected, you’ll spot a prompt saying “Add more about your gender.”
If you select Woman, then you’ll be capable to choose from:

Women didn’t want to date me, fearing that I was using the bi label as a stepping stone to being “full-blown” queer. Whether or not they’d openly admit it, many feared I’d inevitably leave them for a man. The gay men I dated didn’t hold this fallacious belief. Rather, they were unbelievably condescending. They’d say things love, “Oh, honey! I was bi too. You’ll get there.” When I reaffirmed my bisexuality, letting them know that this isn’t a pitstop, but a closing destination, they’d respond, “I understand you think that. I did too.”
So I stopped telling people I was bisexual, at least on the first date. It wasn’t that I was ashamed of being attracted to all genders or attempting to conceal my bisexuality.
