Cuddling on the
Wild Side

I have found the first iPhone Application that is anti-cuddling. I’ve always thought of cuddling to be an innocent and intimate action, but apparently Grindr finds it to be repulsive and offensive.

My Grindr photo they don't have a problem with, unless I want to cuddle.

Over the past few days I’ve had my Grindr profile censored, and every time I get a message that it’s because of the text. At first I thought it was the “kinky” or “rough and wild fun” portion, but nope, that’s not the case. Today I posted “Just a single guy that likes to cuddle.” and within 2 minutes… BAM… censored.

I would maybe understand this if I tried to post a profile on eHarmony or something, but a family friendly gay hook-up app? This is shocking to me. Maybe they’re just trying to start a war with me because the review I wrote of them wasn’t so kind. It’s also the first thing that pops up if you search “Gindr Review”.

I’m a little addicted to Grindr right now, but I’m going to start weening myself off of it. If you haven’t joined yet, don’t. It’s not worth it to join an anti-cuddling group. I also urge all pro-cuddlers to start weening themselves off of Gindr too until you have no need for it.

Please join the fight and spread the word on Facebook, Twitter or your blog (feel free to post in full with a link back here).
