Fun Facts in Grndr Poll

[+ Lucky]

The Bay Area Reporter today reveals the results of a Grndr poll on gay issues:

San Francisco's LGBTQ Castro neighborhood is the fourth "gayest gayborhood of the year," according to "Grindr Unwrapped," the queer dating and meet-up app's year-end report.

The historic district was beat out by No. 1 Soho in London, No. 2 Chueca in Madrid, and No. 3 West Hollywood in Los Angeles County. Rounding out the top five was Paris' Le Marais.

 

"Grindr Unwrapped isn't just another year-end list — it's the pulse of queer pop culture," the company stated. "Voted on by thousands of users worldwide, the list honors the icons, moments, and vibes that defined the LGBTQ+ community in 2024."

 

The report also stated that the United States has the third highest percentage of tops in the world, beat out by No. 1 Jordan and No. 2 Greece. Rounding out the top five were No. 4 Singapore and No. 5 Peru.

 

South Africa led the list of countries with the most bottoms, followed by South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, and Denmark.

 

The Bay Area Reporter reported in 2023 on that year's report that the U.S. led the world in daddies. According to "The Joy of Gay Sex" third edition by Charles Silverstein and Felice Picano, "in the gay scene, daddies tend to have certain physical characteristics: salt-and-pepper and sometimes thinning hair; facial and chest hair; faces that show maturity."

 

This is still the case in 2024, with the land of the free followed by Australia, Trinidad and Tobago, Venezuela, and Canada.

 

The U.S. also led the world in "top countries who love nudes," followed by Finland, Australia, Canada, and Norway.

 

Trans was the second most popular tag searched on the app, bested only by "hung," and followed on the list by "bb" (bareback), dom, and feet.

 

There were 9.5 billion taps sent on the app in 2024 thus far (a tap is a notification sent to another user indicating potential interest).

Not surprised; one of my favorite hookups ever was with an oral bottom from South Africa 😍
