The United States is a melting pot of diversity, except when it comes to profile headers gay men use on Manhunt. In all but one state, the most frequent user headline was a simple "Hey guys." 

In Connecticut, however, users however have bypassed the rest of the country for a more pressing (pardon the pun) issue by being the only state where "Looking for a top" is the most frequent header. Times are rough (or not, actually) in Connecticut.

Gay hookup site and app Manhunt has left the jaws of many dropped—but not in the usual way its services tend to accomplish such a feat. In what it says is an act of it honoring World AIDS Day tomorrow, Manhunt has started promoting the controversial daily HIV preventative pill Truvada as "a choice when condoms are in the way."

Thanks to a proliferation of GPS-based and online hookup sites for gay guys, getting booty has never been easier. Unfortunately, it's also never been easier to pick-up a little something extra on the side. To counteract the high risk of STD transmission among men who have sex with men online, a study, funded by amFAR and conducted in cooperation with owners of sites and apps, users and HIV and STD awareness groups, has recommended a handful of ways hookup businesses in the digital age can encourage their members to practice safe sex. So, what are they?

Ahh yes, this leads us back to the timeless insult, "I can at least get skinny, but you will always be ugly." In a new video from the loveable Davey Wavey, he addresses the painful trend of the "floating torso" that online networks like Grindr and Manhunt made famous and that always leads us to wonder of a profile-surfing hooch: is he ugly, closeted or shy? Catch the relevant video after the jump.

With the proliferation of Grindr, other mobile dating/cruising apps and a more palatable mainstream appreciation for websites like Connexion and Manhunt, more gay men than ever are digitally dating. A key ingredient -- especially for gay men -- on any dating/cruising app or website is listing what one is into on his profile. As in the physical realm of gay bars and clubs, on their social profiles gay men often list the races they find themselves attracted or not attracted to.
