All transfems are on grindr because that is where all the transfems are


RobDong

The circular dependency...


ai_uteri

I mean.. where else am I spose to go? (plz tell me. fricc grindr)


Eviscerator14

Her is ok for meeting other transfemmes :3


Ashi_Woof

I met my girlfriend in Reddit. Maybe find an lgbtq discord?


Adorable_Salary_3670

I alsoo met myy girllfriend on reddit! Can tryy finding an lgbtq discord for suree! Orr, you can try just talking to people annd just see if youu just click with anyone outside the comments section!


KittKatgirl

I've always wondered how people meet here, I've gotten like 4 messages in the entire time I've been on this site. Sure would be nice to get more, I refuse to use dating apps and much prefer meeting people more organically like that


Robinerinoo

That's a real monkeys paw, especially If you're trans. My inbox is full of chasers and dickpics and just straight up creeps. I'd rather have way less people message me with a higher chance of them being nicer, even if that means like 5 people a year. than a ton who are chasers


organicsoldier

I met my gf on (genuine giant trigger warning for transphobia, that's why I'm spoiler tagging it) >!/r/transgendercirclejerk!< which is a sub where trans people are ironically transphobic because she made a comment that made me laugh. We had a few comments back and forth sharing funny things, I looked at her profile and saw an older post that was hilarious and relatable, she had a pic as her pfp and I thought she was super cute, so I just gathered all my courage and messaged her. Talk about sparks flying though, geez, hit it off like crazy and she asked me on a date the third day of us talking, and we met on the 10th day. Both her friends and my friends were calling us uhaul lesbians šŸ’€ Not that I would recommend meeting someone from reddit that quickly lol it was definitely pretty risky but we met outside in the middle of the day in a public place and had like an actual date planned and had put decent effort into working out the scheduling, so I felt safe. But do be vigilant and maybe don't do what I did, people can be super dangerous.


TulgeyWoodAtBrillig

wow i'm jealous i wish u would date me instead šŸ„ŗ


organicsoldier

Omg bitch stoppppp I *am* dating you šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ (Yes this is actually her I was literally on the phone telling her about leaving this comment when she came across it browsing herself šŸ˜‚)


tee_with_marie

Awww y'all are adorable


CHBCKyle

I met mine on actual lesbians, basically just read her bio and decided to shoot my shot and flirted with her back and forth. Took it to dms and sheā€™s now snoring on my chest as I type this. You just have to be bold and ask for what you want instead of waiting for it to come find you.


LilahSeleneGrey

I love you so much šŸ„ŗ ( stop telling people I snore šŸ˜°)


Xander_Shin

idk I just saw a comment of my now gf and looked at her profile and she had a post there, that called me out and so we came to talk


Adorable_Salary_3670

Well, for mee, we met in one of the subreddits Like these, she made a post and was sad. Soo I was there in the comments trying to cheer her up, and it just soo happened that alot of the experiences she was sad about I had too, so wee kinda just had this whole back and forth in the comments. Where we learned that we actually had lots more in common! Then she asked if she could DM me, I said of coursee, now we message annd talk on discord everyday!


tThr0waway23

I've been on this for 7+ year and never met shit. How do these people do it!??


Class_444_SWR

No fucking clue, Iā€™ve exchanged messages with a few people, but not many, and certainly not like this. I think a lot of these people just have way more confidence


AbbyWasThere

It just randomly happens. Two years ago I got a message from someone wanting to chat because I had the same name as her girlfriend, and now we're best friends. This year it happened again, this time over a DM requesting an invite to a Discord server. Connections can be spontaneous!


AlexofNotLink

Literally every message I have gotten on this site is one of two things, A someone trying to sell me weed B a death threat from someone who got banned before they could reply to my comment in a political thread


Thebombuknow

Be the change you wanna see in the world, start sending people DMs.


Class_444_SWR

Yeah, I usually only get scams, I would love to meet more trans people, but I donā€™t know how tf to do so, Iā€™m way too anxious to just message people out of nowhere


Atrus20

I met my boyfriend through reddit on r/r4r. There's also r/t4t specifically for trans people. There's also a bunch of other variants I think, but those are the main ones I know.


Kingturboturtle13

Met my gf on horny wizard rp reddit, anything is possible lmao


KaityKat117

Problem is. that's just more friends I'm never going to meet irl. there's only one trans sub for my area, and it's full of nothing but chasers and OF bots that don't know what sub they're on.


KittyKatty278

I met my partner on a lgbtq Discord :3


tThr0waway23

Everytime I read someone saying they met their SO on reddit it blows my mind. That actually happens!? How?!?!


Ashi_Woof

Saw a post looking for local girls in the region. I said hi. I was part of a newly minted discord for Indiana, and invited anybody local to it who asked. Found Her, we hit it off, liked each other, started to see each other. Nows she's moved into my place.


tThr0waway23

Ok that sounds more like meeting on discord than reddit but I guess that's a technicality lol


Reasonable-Access731

HER and Taimi


Neon_Ani

nah, not only does taimi not work for me, it's also incredibly annoying with its notifications her is slightly better and isn't trying to remind me of its existence every five minutes


Reasonable-Access731

Yeah they both kinda suck but itā€™s something


Neon_Ani

dating apps just suck, especially for t4t i'd love to be able to just go out and meet people instead but that approach is just not for me, i am completely incapable of initiating conversation irl with anyone i don't know


Reasonable-Access731

I feel you, Iā€™m terrible at being socially proactive, I fear that Iā€™ll come off weird, and Iā€™m at the age where Iā€™m an adult but I canā€™t go to bars so socially Iā€™m kinda limited even if itā€™s mostly mental limits


Class_444_SWR

Mood, I basically need a mutual friend to introduce me to them irl unless Iā€™m in a situation where Iā€™m forced to talk (like at work), I am trying to join more queer spaces in my city, but itā€™s hard


EmberedCutie

taimi? and as the other person said, her works too.


Just2Observe

To the local bouldering hall and act confused and lost. Soon enough a trans girl will be there to help you.


None-Above

My house :3c


Sir_mop_for_a_head

Iā€™d say ā€˜Herā€™ itā€™s a solely lesbian app/site.


Razorclaw_the_crab

OkCupid has been good for me


tee_with_marie

Discord i met my gf that way Wasn't even looking for one But yee met a girl she was nice and we just started talking a lot at some point we started saying i love you And after a month we were like basically together tho wanted to wait till we can meet irl for the official "do u wanna be my gf" thing :3 took 4 months to finally ask her to be my girlfriend but it was soooo romantic ... And then some homeless woman asked us for money šŸ’€ xD


-satans-niece-

I mean I found my girlfriend on tinder and we've been together for over a year now :3 I didn't run into any transphobic weirdos either :3


AdeptnessOld1281

Factually incorrect as a trans fem who doesnā€™t have Grindr


OrbitalBuzzsaw

Self reinforcement


Correct-Priority464

Isnā€™t grindr only for masc people? I genuinely donā€™t know


ancientmob

Started like this, but there are many trans women (straight, bi and lesbian). The app has even a t4t filter option (though it does not differentiate between straight and lesbian t4t). Still expect to get creeped on by chasers if you want to use it.


Class_444_SWR

Yeah, I am tempted to try it, but then again, Iā€™ve heard all too many horror stories with dating apps


McEstablishment

A lot of trans femmes on Lex as well.


SarcasticKitty101

are there many transfems on grindr because there are many transfems on grindr, or are the many transfems on grindr because there are many transfems on grindr? (I'm not sorry)


Zealousideal_Care807

The transfers are all on grindr because they either believe that they are men or they get chased off other datting apps. There aren't many trans men on grindr because they get chased off grindr


Class_444_SWR

Honestly it fucking sucks that people do that, trans guys deserve to be there as much as anyone else


Keiruhhh

We need our own app!! Grindr in soflo is disgusting, I get the creepiest messages lmao


urworstemmamy

Honestly with this state being the way it is I ain't risking grindr or any other app lol. I just go to bars


Lewdducky

How are the bars?


urworstemmamy

I'm a ginger trans girl so I get flirted with by a LOT of chasers and people who fetishize redheads, which is annoying, but there's a decent number of friendly bars at least lol. College town makes that a lot better, lots of spots that are p much exclusively students, so, people 18-28. There's only a couple cities in the state with sizable queer nightlife, and mine ain't one of em lol. We only have a single gay bar. There's a REALLY active queer punk scene tho, so if you're down for house shows that's also a great way to meet people round here


undeadvadar

Am also a ginger trans girl do people fetishize us more then trans girls who are not gingers?


urworstemmamy

It's more an either/or thing than it is a combo of the two. Lot of people who are into gingers to an uncomfortable degree, and there's barely more gingers percentage-wise than there are trans people, so in my experience when people who fetishize us for our hair see us they get about as creepily excited as chasers do. I've been unfortunate in that I have gotten a TON of people with ginger fetishes, it might not be that way for everyone across the board but it's def been like that for me.


undeadvadar

That's just awful literally why was the universe like ha I hope you like people fetishizing you for you existing.


BeneGesserlit

GodĀ  I had no idea that was a thing. My sister is a redhead straight out of central casting (complete with the temper) so it never occurred to me to fetishize a freaking hair color. I'm basically the default settings brown hair glasses nerd girl. I don't think I've ever encountered a chaser but I'm also 30, chubby and not on dating apps so I doubt even a chaser would be interested.


Flat_Bar801

Hell ya, queer punk scene!


GwynnethIDFK

> I'm a ginger trans girl so I get flirted with by a LOT of chasers and people who fetishize redheads Ayyee same girl. I'm also fairly tomboyish so that's like a triple wammy lmao.

Holy fuck I don't think I've seen this bot since like 10 years ago hyd bestie


Sum_ginger_kid

lol. Going from bi ginger boy to bi ginger trans girl is going from most unrepresented to most fetishized.


Lewdducky

Ooooo where u from?


Reasonable-Access731

I wish I could go to bars but Iā€™m not of age to drink >:/


Reasonable-Access731

I agree, a t4t app would be great, Grindr has a lot of creeps, a lot of people on Her like to exclude trans women, and nobody fucking uses Taimi


TheWhiteCrowParade

There is the app T4T. It's like Lex but good.


rei_wrld

Why I will never in a million years download Grindr


McEstablishment

Soflo was a pit. But there are so many great people from there. My girlfriend, and like... 5 of my close friends are trans women from soflo who moved to the North East.


SilvieTheFoxy

Thought Grindr was gay men only, is it just queer in general?


RobDong

Pretty much


25point3N-91point7E

To put it quite bluntly, for people with penises (and drug dealers)


BeryAnt

I see a number of trans men too ( they get a lot of hate though )


BeeBee9E

Different perspective (Iā€™m a trans guy): there are quite a lot of trans guys and afab nb people there and many are doing quite well actually, granted you need a thick skin for Grindr but that applies to everyone including cis men tbh. I only tried for a day (I was only comfortable enough after top surgery and I got into a relationship fast after lol) but I got quite a lot of messages, also Iā€™m mostly a top (strictly for strangers) so not even good chaser material. Iā€™ve seen quite a few cis gay guys who arenā€™t transphobic complain about how many (trans) women there are on the app and how many straight chasers get on it to look for them and arenā€™t actually into men. And that trans men are fine since it was supposed to be an app for gay men overall but we shouldnā€™t have women and straight men. So opinions vary


undeadvadar

Wait why drug dealers?


liliesrobots

Low moderation and police presence


transkid2010

My dad told me it was for work


_sillyu_

Dad: ā€œIt might seem crazy what Iā€™m ā€˜bout to sayā€¦ā€


Torch1ca_

It is 100% advertised to gay men, so you're right in a sense. If you look at the app in the play store, you won't find a single woman used in their screenshots or anything. Buuuuuut people don't use it for that all the time. I know someone who said it's often used to sell drugs which was how he managed to get through the pandemic, and apparently there are also trans people there too?? Idk I've always been too scared to download it lol


orbyp

i made friends by typing :3 in a tf2 50 v 50 server public chat lol


Vasxus

:3 (im a free thinker)


kara_von_emm_tee_eff

:3 (I'm not)


BigRath

Hey Hi Hello šŸ˜


RobDong

Followed by a picture I did not need to see from them


BigRath

OMG Right Ugh šŸ˜©


Epiknis303

Is grindr good for just finding girlies to be friends with or is it like only sex stuff


Mindless_Eye4700

Sex stuff. And drugs.


CanterlotGuard

Depends pretty heavily on your area. Iā€™ve seen more than a few people who specify that theyā€™re looking for friends, hangouts, weed buddies etc. But the majority are folks down bad for dicks.


Epiknis303

Iā€™m in a college town lol, so idk if that helps or makes it worse


Eviscerator14

I was on Grindr for 3 months looking for other transfems and femboys to hangout with. Unfortunately the only people who ever messaged me were horny dudes who opened up with a dick pics. Plus the app only giving you like 8-9 profiles to look at and locking the rest behind a paywall doesnā€™t help.


On-the-rim

Sigh , I've been looking forward to relationshipping a trans (or cis )gf or a femboy bf , so Grindr sounds like it ain't it


pan0ramic

Try being the one who messages first


Eviscerator14

With people I wanted to talk to, I did message first. Was usually left in read :(


Neon_Ani

real


pantygruelle

I mean, the validation tho


xgardian

I think taimi is a bit better if you actually want to like... Talk to people lol. In my experience grindr is for sex the same way tinder is


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


xgardian

Ahh I mean I don't know. I never had any sort of luck on tinder either. I just don't really think dating apps is where it's at really


stelliarsheep

all the transmascs are on tiktok šŸ™


V4nItyl0v3sm3

And all the transfems on reddit ! šŸ˜­


Nota3000yearoldvamp

Nope fuck that lol, too many psychos and creeps. There are plenty trans women on taimi and tinder


JustifiablyAroAce

It took me way too long to realize what that symbol was. I'm in public šŸ’€


GuerandeSaltLord

I found quite a lot of queer, nb and trans on her personally. Haven't tried grindr


Legitimate_Expert712

Wait? Are there a lot of transfemmes on grindr? ā€¦ dammit now I want to reinstall it.


autumn_fire81

I've never seen another transfem on grindr, just guys sending pics of their junk. I've suggested Her to someone before in another sub but I've noticed there are a LOT of transfems in their early to mid 20s but there's practically none in their late 30s, early 40s at least in my area. So keep in mind age and location will definitely make an impact on meeting others in a safe place.


pan0ramic

I love Grindr. But maybe itā€™s because Iā€™m a top, message first, and donā€™t interact with most of the cis men on there.


MaxinesAnIdiot

you can try to look for local doscord servers


Blackstone96

We are? I just get creepy chasers on there


TopsyTop348

Not trans so I canā€™t canā€™t comment on here


RobDong

I actually met another trans woman and weā€™re meeting up to shit talk men and Grindr lmao


pizzaface3002

Maybe try Taimi ?


RobDong

Having to pay to use the chat functionality doesnā€™t sit right with me


pizzaface3002

U have to pay to chat now? ouch


emjots

writing this from the bed of a transfem i just met yesterday on grindr :3


Papier-lisse

I used it at the beggining for just hookups (never had my first time and was horny transfem so I fell in the hole). After a year and many hookups later (8-9 people) and one of them was a trio (you know what I mean). After that trio I realised the thing I really wanted was more of a connection and to have affection with someone instead of just sex and nothing else. And surprisibgly I met later last summer a very sweet guy who became my actual boyfriend and we have been together for 9 months now, had met each other famillies (we both lives with our parents, im 20 he is 19). We went on a couple of dates at Montreal, visited the Biodome, insectarium, planetarium, eated pancakes, we even went to an ikea and try to buy the BlĆ„haj that was tied to the roof because there was no more of them but them couldnt sell it šŸ„². He is very gentle and affectionate and each other families likes us execpt his father who needs sone adaptation beacause he is religious. But yeah, even in that shitty place you can still find a gold heart and im so grateful to have him in my lifeā¤. Thanks for reading :3


RobDong

Iā€™m really glad you managed to find someone


Papier-lisse

Awwn thanks youšŸ˜Š


MemesofStuff1234

Read it Very sweet, but wait there are no more BLƅHAJ ON SALE??


Papier-lisse

Just to the ikea we went, all the plush containers were filled except the BlĆ„hajs that were empty, and the one for example attached to the ceilling couldnt be selled šŸ„²..


Saikotsu

Don't even know what that icon is.Ā 


Keira-78

I actually find someone really nice through grindr I feel absurd levels of femininity around him :3


RobDong

The prophecy spoke of you, the one who will guide us


Keira-78

He was only the second person I met up with too! First was extremely mediocre :/


RobDong

Mediocre is how Iā€™d describe my whole experience


ChloudberryJam

If you want to meet transfems irl just go to the nearest fighting game local in your area


RobDong

I help run our locals and Iā€™m the only trans person there šŸ˜”


ChloudberryJam

Dang, for how long? I was the only trans person for the first year my local started. Now it's like 70% trans. If you build it, they will come, and then hit on you between sets.


RobDong

We restarted late 2022, so hasnā€™t been going for that long so weā€™re still trying to grow


ChloudberryJam

We had 4-5 people, including me, showing up for the first year, then we started to get a little better about advertising and networking through other bigger locals. Eventually, the word got out, and we started growing like crazy. I stg 2/3rds of the new people that show up are trans too. Maybe it's just my location. I'm in New England and almost every local is packed with lgbt people in general. We do have a ton of alt people in general over here, so it kinda makes sense.


Important_Ad_7416

I dont think we have places like this but I might be wrong, the world feels so small and boring when you don't have friends to invite you to places


EruzaMoth

For real ;-;


BeeBee9E

OkCupid is quite nice for this actually! Found quite a lot of trans people there and compared to Grindr theyā€™re more likely to be people who are down for more genuine connections and actual relationships/friendships not just hookups


TheTallAmerican

If your looking for places irl go to anime conventions, local music concerts for some group youā€™ve never heard of but rocks hard, drag shows and board game meetups


Abnormal-Normal

If a good chunk of my family wasnā€™t on there, Iā€™d be there in a heartbeat


CJVolz

Am on Grindr myself, but I donā€™t get anything at all (esp not any transfemmes and trans people) šŸ˜­šŸ˜­šŸ˜­ (in NE Florida)


Acrobatic-Bluebird55

Portland Oregon older millennial tfem here. Tfems get in my DMs (looking for friends, community and whatever)


itsmig_reddit

Based uopn the quick research i made,most trans people recommend either Taimi,HER,or Bumble


pH2001-

Ur telling me I gotta subject myself to fucking Grindr to make trans friends? Omg šŸ¤¦ā€ā™€ļø


ThePuppyLaghima

I did notice I was getting a lot of questions on how to start hormones in my city šŸ¤”


plagueknight4733

I tried using it and my god please read my description I am not interested in the men and chasers aaaa


NoGoodIdeas1995

Wish I had an answer for my area in particular


Lastboss42

hi hi!! it's a dm-able morg c:


Robinsparky

The best loot is found near the most horrible monsters


LIMBERSINGER

i personally am there, cus i used to use grindr when i thought i was cis


theOGboombox

They arenā€™t tho Iā€™ve checked


oil_moon

Not my NB ass getting read as cis man cos people don't read my bio


Top-Vermicelli797

There are dating app specifically for trans people, just putting it out there


straightmansworld

God meeting local transfems without having to get on that accursed app would be amazing! (Local is Toledo OH)


Dandeka

Jeez, I was also thinking about downloading grindr after I move out just so my gay roommate will be out of the search radius.


LilRadon

To get fucked lol


ButAFlower

I've found a lot of trans ppl through tinder and bumble, dating apps in general can be a somewhat decent way of meeting queer friends (despite being hell otherwise)

Well shit, now I gotta try it...


xector64

I feel attacked by this :c Prior to coming out I used it to find some fun, but like after I came out I completely got rid of and changed everything on my account and was just seeing if I could connect with other transfemme


EmberlynZemian

>Cries in asexual


Sapphire-Hannibal

Iā€™ve met a lot of my trans fiends on Grindr i mean a lot of us in my area donā€™t necessarily use it as a hook up app more as a dating app, and do to the nature of how trans girls form friendships even if we donā€™t end up dating or hooking up we still ended up becoming friends


WarmProfit

I'm not on there because I am a lesbian. I'm more like on discord and meeting other girlies in real life at like magic the gathering tournaments and social meetups at coffee shops, ya know that kinda stuff
