We used to live in a world where most gay bars in Cleveland were only full of men looking for men to hook up with. Over the past decade the lines have become a lot more blurred and most venues are more mixed LGBT style, and some are mixed gay and straight.

We cover way too many cities and these scenes change way too fast for us to be perfect in all of our posts. We know the scene here pretty well, but of course locals are going to be experts and we are just trying to keep up.
It would be great if you could let us know about any errors we made or if anything is out of date on this page in the comments section at the end. Also, if you think any venues should be listed as solely places for men to meet men or women to meet women in your area fill us in, thanks a lot.

As many of us become more introverted going out to party at a local LGBT bar or club may not be our preferred way to meet new people. Fortunately technology has opened up some new doors for us and now we have more options at are disposal.
It is also safe to say that we aren’t all in the same position and there are probably people reading this who may not want to be seen at or have their photos taken at a gay bar. Plenty of us don’t mind, but we aren’t going to expect everyone to feel the same way as we do.

Our first sites to tell you about are both run by Adult Friend Finder. We think most of you have seen the AFF ads online in the past since they have been helping millions of people like us hook up since the turn of the century.
Their top site for finding gay men near you to hook up with is Men Nation and it is very popular in major cities like this one. The ladies will be better off on Lesbian Personals, and if you don’t have a preferred gender to hook up with then Adult Friend Finder is probably best for you because it covers all the user bases on their numerous sites.
So for m4m hook ups look into Men Nation, and for f4f hook ups try out Lesbian Personals. We also want to mention the world’s top transgender dating site, MyTransgenderDate.
Trans dating in Cleveland gets more popular by the day as more ts feel confident enough to be the person they really want to be. At this point we have covered the LGBT nightlife in your area in full.
