Being Kinder on Grindr

Being Kinder on Grindr

There’s no doubt that Grindr has cemented itself as part of the gay culture. For an entire generation, an app has shaped what it means to be gay - for better or worse.

In this episode, Michael invites special guest, Pepper, to make a case for engaging on Grindr with more respect, kindness, and humanity.

They are talking candidly about such things as:

  • What to write in your bio
  • Kinder communication
  • Ghosting
  • Respectful rejection
  • Setting expectations
  • Hook ups
  • Dealing with unsolicited pics
  • Stating preferences politely
  • Knowing when to take a break
