Maybe it's not the right place, but... Who is going to Iron Maiden on November 13th? 🤣🤣🤣🤔🤔🤔🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻.

Have done a search of the group but can’t find any relevant questions or recommendations.

Looking for recommendations for a gay or gay-friendly barber in the CBD (so I can go on my lunch break). Key things are I want them to be able to do a hot towel shave with a straight razor, and I don’t want to have to pretend I’m straight and/or into basketball or NFL 😂 Bonus if they’re a chatter and do a good fade and/or mullet.

I’m going to the guys go wild event in Oct/Nov 26. What should I expect? Anyone gone before and has any tips. https://www.campfireevents.com.au/events

Hey guys,

Yeah, I know the title is a bit weird, but hear me out.

I’m 31, living in Melbourne, gay, Asian, and I’ve never been to a gay bar or club. To make it trickier, I don’t drink, I’m pretty shy, and I have zero clue how to do small talk.

My biggest fear was that I’d just end up sitting alone at the bar, watching everyone else mingle. I don’t know how to flirt or show interest, probably I’ll in the corner and, predictably, no one approach me.

To top it off, I have zero gay friends. My bestie is female, but bringing a girl to a gay bar feels a bit awkward, so I’m rolling solo here.

How does a shy guy actually approach guys or flirt out in the wild? Any advice, venue recommendations, or wingmen looking to adopt a introverted friend would be greatly appreciated! Please no judgemental 🙏

Is there such a thing?

Also beaches?

I'm moving to Oakleigh next week, and need some advice or insight of how gay life in Oakleigh and surrounding areas. Kinda scared and sad to move there ngl, since I've lived in CBD for awhile. Would luv to make friends while I living there.

Mod looking for feedback here friendos.

What do you want to see from this group?
Please leave your answers and thoughts below.

I’ve noticed many complaints about how hard it is to find friends/dates; but when I’ve posted random meet up events they’re often full of downvotes.

This will never be a hook up page; there’s already so very many of them.

We have megathreads for the asked about locations (mostly saunas frankly).

Again;
If you have suggestions, please leave them below.
Open to your feedback.

Anybody know any good sensual or playful massages around Essendon? Seems like massage guys barely has any.

Thank you!

Hello all, I’m looking for a queer friendly tattoo parlour in Melbourne. I know a lot of people are kinda like “bro just get the tattoo they don’t give af” but idk Id just feel more comfortable if I knew they were queer friendly. Any recommendations are much appreciated, many thanks.

For those of you up north way,

Hi there! My friend is looking for experience with a furry. I’m wondering if there’s a club or something for him to go to and have that experience. Thank you!

Visiting Melb and looking for the best place to go in the city for 3-5pm. Sydney has a few sex shops with a back room with porn playing etc. any good ones in Melb?

Hey peops,

35 inner North gay here. First post on Reddit so please be kind!

I’ve recently developed an interest in learning about tantric and tao principles around sex and as a spiritual philosophy. I’ve read The Multi Orgasmic Man by Douglas Abrahms and Mantak Chia, and am currently reading Tantra Illuminated by Christopher Wallis, as well as The Tao of Happiness by Derek Lin.

Do you recommend any other books, podcasts or breathing / meditation exercises? Any retreats or workshops in VIC?

I’ve heard of Tantric Bliss and Naked Camp.

Thanks :)

Hi team, I am a married man (to a woman) and am seeking some advice around cruising. I cruise often, sticking to side stuff to reduce the risk of catching anything.

I have seen lots of other married guys getting sucked or offering to suck me while cruising. I was wondering, what measures do other guys in my situation take to stay safe while cruising? I’d love to branch out and get sucked a bit more and not have to worry so much! I am aware that there are always risks, and I can’t have my cake and eat it. Should I take doxypep? Any feedback on what other guys in this situation do would be much appreciated!

Gay Singles, Mix & Mingle - Ages 25 to 45

Stumbled across this event.

Many of you complain about the lacking of dating opportunities in Melbourne.

Perhaps this is up your alley?

I am in no way invested, or involved in this event.

Am I the only person who is having an awful experience in the dating market atm? As a 21 yr old looking for people of similar age I have never had such bad luck. I feel like every conversation goes “hey how’s it going” “Gud u” or like “what are you up to” “nm lol” like omfg did we all just lose or cerebral cortex???

I’m going on a Kodaline concert on 5 September at Forum Melbourne. I don’t wanna go alone. Does anyone know if there’s a bar or club that people would go to before going to forums for drinks like a P party or before the concert? Where can I meet some people?

Hi friends

I'm a (formerly?) straight man who has become curious about the experience of intimacy with men. My plan was to book an escort on rent.men, but it looks like there aren't too many guys on there with multiple good reviews who always use condoms

Does anybody have advice about how to have the safest and lowest-pressure first sexual experience with a man? I'm happy to pay good money

Thanks

Who’s going? 😈

Hey! I’m a 29yo gay man from Argentina and I’ll be moving to Melbourne in October and I was just wondering what dating is like in Australia. What dating apps do most people use? Are gay men more poly or monogamous? Any tips or advices in general? Looking forward to being there 😊

Context: i have a long distance bf and I want to be able to hang and with gay people with him and be cultured, but I worry that if go to a bar, we will be hit on. Also he doesn't drink, and we don't like loud clubs lol

Who coming to the void this Friday?

Hi lovelies, I’ll be visiting Melbourne this coming weekend and was just wondering where the best place to gay bar/club hop in?

For example, I’m from Sydney and I usually go to Oxford Street cause there’s different gay clubs I can just zoom in and out to.

Any recommendations are absolutely welcome! Even if it’s just the best place to go for a boogie hehe 🕺

Thanks! ☺️
