It isn’t like everyone enjoys partying at local LGBT bars. Sure, there will be some drunk people around you might be able to hook up with, but those drunks can also be a pain in the ass to deal with.
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.
We have a few options to tell you about, and the first ones are mostly geared towards casual sex, not full on serious dating. Men Nation is a really good gay dating site for hook ups, and if you want to hook up with gay guys in Louisville you should give it a shot.
Lesbian Personals is obviously for the ladies, and they are both run by Adult Friend Finder. We bet you have seen their ads online before since they have been helping people of all kinds hook up for almost as long as the internet has been a thing.
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. Women who want to meet women can use 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 across their network.
We also want to mention the world’s top transgender dating site, MyTransgenderDate. Trans dating in Louisville is more popular than ever and that probably won’t change any time soon since more ts near you feel confident enough to be the person they really want to be.
