'If Guys Acted In Real Life The Way They Do On Gay Apps' Skewers Gay Internet Hookup Culture

WATCH: If Guys Acted In Real Life The Way They Do On Gay Apps...
|

OK, let's face it: if you identify as a gay man, at some point you've probably downloaded a gay hook-up app -- and chances are people probably acted terrible.

The framework through which gay man communicate on apps like Grindr and Scruff often allows for the worst to come out of these disposable interactions. This is the topic explored by a new video from gay social networking app Jack'd titled, "If Guys Acted In Real Life The Way They Do On Gay Apps."

The video explores how ridiculous it would be if men said things like "no fats, no fems" or suddenly flashed their junk outside of the presumed safety of the Internet and then had to deal with the consequences in the offline world. So what would happen if we turned the tables and talked to each other in real life the way we talk on gay hook-up apps? As the video shows, it probably wouldn't be pretty but it definitely would be hilarious.
