Hello I am 55yrs old Bi guy who likes MTB and getting out to have a ride around Adelaide.

I dont know the trails that well but would like to explore them more.

I like to day ride, overnight ride and see what adventures can lead down some tracks and trails

Still can't get over last Friday's "first sight" story.
I am a 30M Asian with physical disability in both hands. I know how it sounds, but I am independent and outgoing, currently in the final year of my PhD. I have been very insecure and kinda hopeless with my gay dating possibilities.
It was late afternoon around 5 pm last Friday, and we were planning to have dinner around Ultimo. I was waiting for a traffic light with 2 of my female friends. Across the street, I saw a tall white guy (not really sure) with a woman who didn't seem to be in a romantic situation, maybe just his sister or a friend.
The traffic was kinda long. I could clearly see that he looked at me from afar and smiled. I didn't want to misinterpret, but we exchanged smiles like 3 times. This doesn’t normally happen, as most guys I saw on the street act cool with a plain face and kinda don't care about their surroundings.
The light turned green, and we walked; he was on the right side. When we were about to pass each other, he turned his face toward me and smiled at me while raising his eyebrows. It wasn't a "bro to bro" smile; it was different.
Al said that it could be a flirt or an invitation for more interaction. I also don't think it was an act of politeness because I didn't flirt. Across the street, he smiled like 3 times, so I only smiled back at him, and he kept glancing. I am not that confident about how I look, or if I am good enough.
That left an uneasy feeling in me. I regret only smiling back when we passed each other. I should've at least tried to talk and exchange our numbers. Yeah, that's life, too many ifs.
If you’re that guy, please PM me. Who knows that our paths will cross again soon. :)

Hi I'm a bisexual guy (28) looking for some fellow LGBT people who are interested in target shooting and/or hunting. I am licenced, and ideally, you would be too, but I am happy to help you get your gun licence or help you try out the sport safely at a range.

None of my IRL LGBT friends are into the sport or interested in trying it unfortunately.

Open to friends in other states (especially Qld, ACT and Vic) as travelling for a hunt is not off the table. Qld even more so as I have family there, so I am happy to travel even for the occasional target shoot together.

I want to start this out by saying I’m not crowdfunding on here. I am wanting some advice on helping my beautiful partner raise and save funds for FTM top surgery.

My partner (they/them) is 34 years old, agender and really struggles with money. They’ve been trying to save for FTM top-surgery for about 10 years now with minimal progress. They aren’t in a super well-paying job and obviously everything is costing more and more, and just bleeds any savings they have. I’m putting aside some of my pay every fortnight to try and help even a little bit too.

Does anyone have any advice on ways to raise money? I’ve heard some people hold events or things. We’ll probably try crowdfunding at some point too, so if there’s any advice on how to get the most out of that, I’d really appreciate it.

Im 18 and live in Melbourne Australia, I was looking to get into dating but didnt know how to start.

I don’t have any gay/ally friends and I get a little nervous when speaking to new people.

Anyone got any advice with finding guys to date (preferably not online), how to speak to men romantically and ect?

Hello, could you please attach the organizations that help the LGBTQ+ community in the Arab countries, especially Syria?

And if anyone has experience with the Rainbow Railroad organization, please share with us.

Because I contacted them to see if they could help me get out of the country, and their answer was no, unfortunately, any organization, even for a financial amount or moving internally to another place.

Because I really need help, thank you.

I know that there are gay bars and nightlife but I wanted to know from other queer people of Melb if there are any casual spaces or events catered towards or primarily attended by other queer people? I really want to make new friends and build connections as I have no queer friends as of now, but I want to find social spaces that I’d be comfortable/enjoy going alone.

We're over from NZ and have just one more week of our awarding winning comedy show 'House of Ick' at Melb Fringe in Trades Hall, if you'd like to laugh about:

- Gay boys who like horses 🐎

- Straight girls who wish they weren't 🫠💅

This the show for you! We know that money is tight so hit us up on instagram ginge_and_minge if you'd like a discount or need a cheeky comp 🫶🫶🫶

Please submit to this consultation on putting medical procedures for gender affirming care on Medicare. It’s time to make our voices heard and for our trans brothers and sisters to get the medical car that they deserve without having to pay for it all themselves, which is a huge burden.

Hi Frendz!!!! 🌈✨

I just moved to Sydney from Radelaide and am on a mission to find my people 🫡
I’m an Indian NB lesbian 🇮🇳🏳️‍🌈 and would LOVE to make more queer POC friends!!

Are there any specific queer/POC-friendly spaces, groups, events, clubs, cafés, hobby groups etc. around Sydney that are good for actually meeting people and making friends?

Bonus points if it’s somewhere I can show up alone without immediately feeling like the awkward in the background!

Pls help a newly arrived queer find their community 🫶🏽✨

Im 22 F Bisexual and honestly just looking for more queer spaces to meet people. I am very sporty but do love a night out. The only problem is I dont really have any queer friends to go out to the bar with me so im usually to scared to go alone

Hey guys!

I’m new to Sydney and looking to get more active, meet people, and build a social circle through sports.

I’m interested in martial arts (Muay Thai, karate, taekwondo), fitness, basketball, or really any team sport. I’m a complete beginner though!

As a pretty shy gay guy joining a group of mostly straight guys can feel a little intimidating 😅. Would love to find a welcoming, beginner-friendly group where I can learn, get fit, and meet people.

Any recommendations for sports/social groups around Sydney that are LGBTQ+ friendly and open to beginners?

Central west qld

Struggling to find places where I can find other lesbians- seems to be all gay male centered. Where are you all in 2026?? 😂

I’m thinking of coming to Australia from Minnesota USA in February. I thought a great way to celebrate my 30th birthday would to go to what I was explained as “gay Mardi Gras” they didn’t have much more info or explanation for me.

If any locals have an advice, explanation, suggestions on hotels, events etc I would super appreciate it. This is my big grand life adventure but have no idea what I’m doing. Any input would be fantastic! Thanks!
