Confessions: Leave SOMETHING to the imagination, boys!!!

Leave SOMETHING to the imagination, boys!!!

This is going to prove more difficult than I had first imagined…

After I had posted yesterday, it suddenly dawned on me that I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA how I am going to make this materialise!! The obvious answer was to look online for my potential ‘date’. It struck me that even if this DID work then how many frogs would I have to kiss until I had found the one I was looking for?

VERY doubtfully, I decided to have a look at some of the gay personals’ sites… BAD idea. Gay men have this stigma that (I for one) am trying to shake off. The thing is that gay men are seen as promiscuous, and until last night, I thought that it was just another stupid clichĂ© that gay men were being stereotyped with! How very wrong I was!

Although not all of us, are tarred with the same brush… after looking at a few of these personals’ sites I have come to the conclusion that gay men have been given this stereotype for good reason!! I spent the best part of about 3 hours looking through one site in particular… although I had lost sight of WHY I was there in the first place.

After I had registered and set up my own account, I began to look through others’, and within the space of about 5 minutes it had already been made quite clear that I was NEVER going to find anyone suitable on a website like this!!! This particular website, sets itself up as being a ‘personals’ website for gay men (as you can imagine, it is somewhat more difficult for gay men to meet each other than it is for heterosexual couples) However, the more I saw in the thousands of pages of these men, the less I believed that anyone was looking for anything other than a quick ‘bunk up’ somewhere.

WHY OH WHY did these men (of ALL ages, I might add) feel the need to use websites like this to show parts of their anatomy that I for one had no desire to see. Middle aged men, suited men, young men, fat balding men… it seemed that anyone within the pages of this website were only interested in one thing… now, I won’t name names but this is one of the most popular web pages that is available to single (or, as I discovered last night), married or taken men… so as you can imagine, I suddenly lost all confidence that technology was going to be the answer to my scenario…

… I guess that it is going to prove that all of the time that you are looking for Mr. Right to come along, he never will. That being said, I haven’t lost my motivation… it seems that if I am going to find him, it more than certainly WON’T be on a website like THAT!

Those of you who have read my posts for the last 2 weeks or so will appreciate that these men in particular I was NOT looking for… time to look somewhere else...
