In all fairness, it's not just gay apps that play host to the thirstiest people on Earth. The straight side of Tinder has a fair few girls looking to either sext or meet up for a shag. Like, I know Tinder is primarily a hook-up site, but some people use it as a genuine way to meet new people. That said, OKCupid has its fair share of horny women. And men, of course, as my little incident the other day proved. The internet, in general, is a pretty goddamn horny place.
yes, of course it's not a gay only thing. it's more of a weird herd-like thinking, most probably don't even want to go the sexting-route, but for some reason think it's expected or it's the only way to get in touch.
