Gay FriendFinder

Gay FriendFinder is the gay personals service of the huge FriendFinder network, which includes its more famous sister service, Adult FriendFinder, among many others. Gay FriendFinder is the more traditional of the two services, with almost 1 million registered members, and a more conventional presentation.

Gay FriendFinder is intended to help gay men who are looking for serious relationships. If you’re looking for sexual encounters of the more casual sort, take a look at OutPersonals, or IwantU Gay, but if you prefer a site where the profile photos are not quite so ‘naked’, you’ll probably be more comfortable at Gay FriendFinder.

As a registered free member, you can browse all profiles, ‘wink’ at other members, and even receive email from other interested members. If you want to return the interest, however, you have to either upgrade to a paid membership, or pay a small fee for the privilege of emailing back. Registration is quick and easy, about a one minute/one page form to fill out, and you’re good to go. You may browse one page of profiles in your own area, if you like, before having to sign up for the free membership.
