Description

The Lessons from the Men of Grindr is a biographical, infotainment-themed exploration of the impacts that Grindr (a gay dating app) has had on a generation of queer people. Part two of this series can be read independently, although it briefly connects the dots on a relationship discussed in part one.Author Lex, Esq. is an attorney and LGBTQ+ blogger. In the book, he revisits three of his early Grindr relationships in order to extract lessons and understand how dating apps had slowly ruined him. Far from dating tips, The Grid pulls from Lex’s personal mistakes to critically examine gay dating themes. Part two covers themes first experiences, PDA, bisexuality, reciprocation, rejection, racism, body and fem-shaming, coming out, friend zoning, age differences, blocking, nudes, social media’s impact on relationships, the residual impacts of Grindr, and more. The Grid pulls numerous lessons from these themes in an attempt to create a better informed and less soul-crushing gay dating experience.Lex, Esq. and his blogs can be followed @theproblemgays on Instagram and www.theproblemgays.com.
