60, black guy, San Francisco Bay Area - anyone here from that area interested in exploring a social connection?
Fairly new to Reddit.
Mature 60 year old black guy in a Partnership going on 20 years. Live and work in the SF East Bay.
Over the years my social circle has gotten smaller for a number of reasons and I am testing the waters to see if I can make one or 2 friends using the R platform. This might be a long shot but nothing tried nothing done. 😊
I love House Music, Movies, Plays, Cal Performances at UC Berkeley. Used to go dancing a lot in SF (old days) but the vibes have changed. People on the dance floor with phones etc. instead of just zoning out and enjoying the music, letting it take your body where it wants. Lots of social spaces for gay people have changed with the times and I don’t do bars for social activity.
Nurturing my mental health is important to me. Been searching the internet for a local LGBT mediation group available in person (not Zoom) and on weekends and/or gay peeps ( male or female) interested in House Music. No luck yet.
So it’s usually working (remote) from home, office a couple times a week, gym a few times a week to keep my health maintenance, streaming movies at home. Love deep conversations strengthened by authenticity, trust, and bringing oneself to a conversation with respect.
If by chance there is anyone here in the Bay Area who would be interested in checking out complimentary vibes and energy for possible social interactions then please feel free to reach out (DM) directly. Accessibility by BART would be great. (LOL).
Thanks for reading. 😊
Happy July 4th from Los Angeles
Hi my name is Jon and I am a youthfully older bearish gay Latin man and like classic American movies (comedies, dramas, musicals, film noir and others). I live in the Hollywood/Los Feliz area so ideally would be nice to meet another gay guy within 30 driving miles away. In addition I love driving and exploring new neighborhoods, exploring the local foodie scene, winetasting, coffeehouses and more. I am also pet friendly and especially like small to mid sized dogs. Please DM me to meet in person or email me at jon90027@gmail.com
Are you truly gay worthy?
Howdy fellow gay fellas!
Thought I’d test our knowledge of memorable movie quotes from our loved icons and divas.
Give the quote and then see who can name the movie and the artist.
I’ll start it off….
“But enough about me, let’s talk about you. What do you think about me”
Heterosexual, Gay, and Lesbian Participants Wanted: Dating and Attraction Study (18+)
Hi everyone!
I'm a PhD researcher at James Cook University in Australia and I'm currently recruiting participants for an anonymous online study exploring attraction, dating preferences, and how people evaluate potential romantic partners.
Participants will view a series of fictional dating profiles and answer questions about attraction and relationship preferences. The findings will contribute to a better understanding of how people evaluate potential romantic partners and whether existing theories of attraction, many of which have traditionally been developed using predominantly heterosexual samples, also apply to LGBTQIA+ populations.
To participate, you must:
- Be 18 years of age or older
- Identify as heterosexual, gay, or lesbian
The survey takes approximately 5–10 minutes to complete and is completely anonymous and voluntary.
We recognise the diversity of the LGBTQIA+ community. While this follow-up study focuses on heterosexual, gay, and lesbian participants, it forms part of a broader research program that has included, and will continue to include, people of diverse sexual orientations and gender identities.
This study forms part of my Doctor of Philosophy at James Cook University and has received ethics approval from the James Cook University Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC Approval No. 25H-0225).
If you'd like to participate, the survey can be accessed here:

If you have any questions about the study or methodology, I'm more than happy to answer them. Thank you for your time!

Definitely not going as hard as I used to, but still a good time.
Winding up pride month solo. 4 pints and 3 Kylie albums in.
Preference for mature gay men
May be better in an "Ask" or psychology community but thought I'd share here. Had an experience a while back where after long chats in a chat room I met a gay man who let's just say seduced me or convinced to try sucking him. I won't go into the whole experience, but I did end up sucking him. The way he went about it, talking to me and stroking my hair and neck just seemed to put me in another world. It made me feel like he was nursing me. Anyway, I now find myself craving the same thing but only with a mature gay man. Must have impacted me psychologically as I don't have this desire for straight or bi men. Do you think it's strange or does it happen more often that I'd think?
Happy pride
2 of the 3 of us are 50+ and the other acts older than both of us seniors gays.
