4. In general, Tinder is a solid choice that can be used by trans people, but one thing to keep in mind is that the app has a diverse userbase with varying preferences and opinions. Online dating as a trans person is difficult. Trying to date as a trans person comes with its own set of challenges.

Mirroring the nature of the real world, social media and dating apps are digital playgrounds for people that wish to inflict harm and perpetuate stereotypes. By and large, transgender women that utilize dating apps such as Tinder, Bumble and Match have difficulties with finding true, healthy connections with people in their areas.

Janelle Villapando has been swiping left and right for years and in that time, she's noticed a few patterns among the men she meets

As a transgender woman, my relationship with online dating is complicated to say the least.

With my accounts on OkCupid, Tinder, Hinge, Coffee Meets Bagel and ChristianMingle, I am subjected to the same kind of messages from Mr. Washboard-Abs-No-Face and unsolicited dick pics that most women, unfortunately, receive. But searching for Mr. Right as a transgender woman (I was born male, but identify and present as female) adds a whole new dimension to digital dating.

Since transitioning in 2014, I haven't reacted positively to guys who hit on me in person because I haven't mastered the art of telling them that we have 'the same parts.' For the past three years, Tinder has been my gateway into online dating as a transgender woman.

As a 22-year-old grad starting a career in fashion (and hopefully, one day, my own size-inclusive clothing line), I am drawn to guys who are funny and ambitious. There's no bigger turn-off than someone who does the bare minimum—except maybe body odour. In terms of looks, I prefer taller guys. Being 5'9″, I still like to be able to look up to my man, literally. So, whenever I see 6'2″ or taller on a guy's profile, it's almost an automatic right swipe.

As a trans woman on dating apps, I've always made sure that guys are aware that I am transgender. This avoids wasting each other's time. There have also been many documented cases of trans women being hurt and sometimes even killed when they disclose their status to transphobic men that found them attractive, so being completely transparent is also a way of protecting myself from potentially dangerous situations.

As I click, message and swipe through the world of online dating, I've quickly learned that there are at least three different types of guys: those who fetishize trans women, those who are curious but cautious, and those who simply don't read. Unfortunately, these labels don't appear on their profiles.

The guy who sees me as a fetish

I usually get very forward messages from guys who just want me for my body. They view me as exotic, a kink, something new to try.

These guys want to chill somewhere less public or exclusively at their place so they won't be seen with me. I have actually 'dated' (if you can even call it that) some of these men, including one guy who checked his apartment's hallway to make sure his neighbours wouldn't see me leave his place. Another guy made sure even his social media presence wasn't linked to mine. He lied about not having an Instagram account, then when I 'came across it' and liked one of his pictures in spite, he blocked me.

With these kind of guys, I've felt like I was their dirty little secret, and at first, I thought this type of interaction was the closest thing to a relationship I was going to have as a trans woman. But I finally reached my limit when one of my dates bumped into someone he knew when we were together. Despite the fact that we were on our third date, he didn't even acknowledge my existence as I stood there a couple feet from him while he talked to his friend. His silence told me exactly how much I meant to him. After realizing that I deserved so much better and was wasting my time with these guys, I stopped giving them attention.

The guy who can't handle that I am trans

After one too many encounters with men who were fetishizing me, I started to spend time on guys who actually wanted to get to know me. These are men who find me attractive, but are initially hesitant because of my trans-ness. With these men, I went on dates in public at the movies, or a chill restaurant, and I was viewed as more than a new sexual experience—but I don't think I was seen as potential relationship material either. One guy in particular seemed to really like me. We vibed well and there was sexual tension building during our dates. Then poof, he was gone. After a month, he reached out to me saying he couldn't be with me because I am transgender. He was concerned about how his sexuality would 'change.'

I had another similar experience on a first date where a man greeted me, hugged me, then said he left something in his car. After a couple of minutes, I got a text from him while waiting alone at our table that said he had to leave because my transgender status was giving him anxiety. After that, I stopped chasing guys who were too concerned about their feelings to even think about mine. Red flags like continually postponing dates and constantly asking, 'When are you getting the surgery?' helped me whittle down the number of guys I talked to by half.

The guy who ignores the (not-so) fine print

Thanks to Tinder, profile pictures say more than a thousand words—and actual words seem to be irrelevant on our profiles. While most people only consider the profile pic before swiping right or left, for me, the text on my profile is crucial. Even since Tinder introduced more genders to choose from than just the binary male and female, it doesn't show your gender on the swiping screen. I get plenty of matches on Tinder, but within 24 hours around half of them un-match or block me after reading my profile. Whenever I do start talking to guys who 'stick around,' I make sure that they know I am transgender before meeting them.

However, I recently went on a date with a guy who was tall, handsome, funny and had his shit (relatively) together. We met in the late afternoon and enjoyed our frozen yogurt in perfect patio weather. It was going really well! At the end of the date, our first kiss quickly turned into a handsy makeout session in the backseat of my car. Before it went further, I did my routine check of asking, 'You know I'm transgender right?' expecting he was going to say yes and carry on. Instead, he looked at me with a blank face.

He started yelling that I never told him. I responded saying it was all over my OkCupid profile, which it turns out he never read. He said, 'I'm bouncing; that's f-cked up,' and jumped out of the car, spat on the ground, slammed the car door and walked away. I sat in the back seat of my car in complete shock.

In that moment, I was mostly concerned about my safety. I stayed in my back seat for probably five minutes to make sure he was gone. When I got back into the front seat to drive home, I still felt uneasy. What if he's still around? What if he's going to try to hurt me?

I touched up my makeup, reapplied my lipstick and put the car in drive. Once I got out of the area I started processing what had happened. I knew that it was all going too well for him to even be interested in me. Until that awkward moment, I thought, 'Is this how easy dating could be if I were a cisgender woman?' I had gone from the girl that my date was kissing to someone he found disgusting all because of a single word: transgender.

Relationship status: single, but cautious

Not all guys I've talked to fall into these three categories. I've gone on dates with guys who seem to be genuinely into me and are accepting of my trans identity, but there's no magical combination of spark, chemistry and attraction.

I seem to only be attracted to guys who are no good for me—and I know that I'm not the only woman, trans or not, who feels that way. Since that incident with the guy in my car, I've slowed down my activity on dating apps. I thought about deleting all my dating apps, but it's still my main way of meeting guys. Plus, what if the perfect guy slides into my DM, right? I haven't lost hope, and my friends continue to encourage me. If I had a dime for every time someone said that I'll find love when I least expect it, I'd be driving a hot pink Bugatti right now (all white interior, please). If that's truly the case, I hope he's 6'4″ and messages me with a cheesy pick-up line.

Tinder might be one of the biggest hookup platforms globally, but how does it rate for transgender singles? Our review analyses what the site can offer and how suitable the app is for Transgender Personals.

Members

• One of the largest worldwide dating apps
• Inclusive of all sexualities
• Created for a mobile app rather than desktop
• Creates matches based on location
• Mainly used by people aged 21-35 so a broad spectrum of ages

One of the bonuses for users is that you will find millions of people, across all genders and sexualities.

Sign-Up & Login Process

To create a login, you will need to provide a Facebook login, a Google login, or your mobile number. When you have provided those details, you need to enter some simple information:

• Name
• Date of birth
• Gender
• Location
• Profile picture

Dating over 50 near succasunna. Our Tinder.com review found that particularly within the transgender dating community, there have been many problems with abusive messages and fake profiles targeting non-binary singles.

Free Account on Tinder

The app is free to download, and you won't need to pay anything to create a page.

Free services include:

• Left swiping
• Finding users nearby
• Sending a super like once per day

Upgraded services include:

• Seeing who has liked your profile
• Instant matches
• Right swiping
• Connecting with users around the world
• Removing ads

Profile Quality

During our review, we found that profiles vary wildly in their quality – the app itself works well, and there is plenty of space for information. Don't forget that if you would like to meet genuine transgender people, it is better to include more information to find a compatible match:

1. Upload more than one photo
2. Include pictures of different aspects of your life
3. Choose a genuine photo
4. Don't upload explicit or nude photos

Search

Tinder doesn't really offer a search option, so there are limited ways to filter who you are looking for. This makes it less than ideal for TG dates since there is no way to filter further who you'd like to match with. The app is all based around the location, so if there isn't a trans community in your area, you might find yourself with very few matches to choose from.

One of the reasons TG dating doesn't work as well as it could is that matches are purely image-based – so you swipe either direction without going into any further detail.

Safety

Tinder is renowned for fake profiles because anybody can create a page for free, none of the information is verified, and it is, therefore, an easy target for spam activity.

• Disregard profiles without any bio
• Never click on a link anybody sends you
• Report bots
• Block and report spam messages
• Do not share any private information

Design

The Tinder app is well designed, but it's a unique layout so it can take a bit of time to work out where things are and what the icons stand for. Swiping is simple, although it is easy to make a mistake – if you swipe left on somebody you'd like to chat with, you can rewind your matches. The app integrates with social media, and some users enjoy this feature while others would prefer to keep their date life private.

• Matches are based solely on appearance
• Reports of abusive behavior and unsolicited messages aimed at trans users

Our Tinder.com Review

Tinder is a great app when it comes to fast hookups and local dating for younger people. However, we were put off by the doubling of the subscription price for users 28 and over. It is fantastic to have such a wide choice of gender identities. Still, the reports of abusive behavior are a real turn off, and it seems that admin doesn't have much control to protect the safety of TG daters.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Tinder.com Good for Meeting Transgender Women?

Honestly – probably not. The app does have many options for transgender people to register, and so is trying to be inclusive. Until the app is safe for trans singles to use, though, and netter security settings are put in place, the number of spam accounts makes it a dating app unsuitable for anybody who is vulnerable or will be upset by malicious messages.

Trans Dating Tinder Page

Is a Tinder account protected?

There isn't much protection, so we are reluctant to recommend it as a suitable app for TG dating. Your details and messages are private and secure, but there is nothing to stop a bot or a fake person from messaging you.

Is it Worth Paying for Tinder.com?

If you are a heterosexual single under the age of 28 – yes, probably! For other people, probably not. Have a look at our Best Sites recommendations for our suggestions.
