SI GUYS: THKG BEYOND GAY MALE "TOPS" AND "BOTTOMS"
Gay datg s are more than jt Grdr and Scff! Here we look at ee gay datg s, lbian datg apps, queer/non-bary onle datg webs, and more. The 14 bt datg apps for men, women, and people the LGBTQ+ muny. * gay side *
Gay men are always fg themselv as top and bottom or verse for terurse.
What about gay men who don’t engage terurse?
I’M GAY AND I’M NOT A TOP OR A BOTTOM – I’M A ‘SI’
There's nothg like a good gay photo. You n hardly turn around a gallery whout bumpg to a photo that was eher snapped by a queer person or one for a subject: om Calyn Jenner's portra by Annie Leibovz to the provotive works of Robert Mapplethorpe to the geni of Andy Warhol, Cathere Opie, and Pierre and Gill. Maybe there's somethg queer about the photograph, the transformatn om a subject to an object a flash. Or maybe all our years of takg selfi for Grdr prepared for the job. In any se, what mak the gay photo gay is the look levels at the viewer: We are ed to beg seen, but now we n look back. * gay side *
A third add: “Personally I’m not crazy about the term ‘si’ (sounds to me like someone lyg there, dog not much) but ’s good that Grdr acknowledg that there’s more to gay sex than anal. The gay male datg app, Grdr, recently add the sexual preference I created beyond jt top, bottom, and vers when to gay men engagg terurse: "si. That’s what happened 2013 when, an article I wrote for the Huffgton Post, “Guys on the Si, ” I created the term “si” for gay men who aren’t to beg a “top” or a “bottom” or practicg anal peratn.
THE TOP LGBTQ+ DATG S AND APPS: 14 BT GAY DATG S
Bee up until that time the gay muny, havg “real sex” was only about peratn.
And most gay male circl, this is still the se. The term “Si” was created when 2010, I was talkg wh some lleagu about “tops” (gay men who prefer the sertive role durg peratn) and “bottoms” (gay men who prefer the receptive role durg peratn) and outed myself for beg a gay man who don’t engage anal terurse at all.
Beg a “top, ” “bottom, ” or “vers” (short for "versatile, " or someone who uld go eher way) were the only acceptable mols the gay muny, and I felt dissed for not ftg to the mold.
