OutPersonals Review

This Site is for the Gay Male Trying to Step Out into the World

Kessa Baylor
Everyone is looking for a place to belong. Just like heterosexual couples who enjoy sharing their new found love with family and friends gay couples are beginning to do the same. Outpersonals offer men an opportunity to meet like minded guys who are tired of living in the closet but ready to come "Out." This dating site is for gay, bisexual and bi-curious men seeking a little one on one fun. Registering to this site is fairly easy however a membership is required to get the details of anyone's profile, which basically mean that cute guy you wish you could get to know will only be available after you join. You can send winks for free once your basic membership is accepted. What is a wink you ask? A wink is a fun way to let someone know that they have captured your attention. You may also join some of the groups. There group chat is designed very similarly to a blog where acceptance of content is based on membership. Chatting is reserved for paying customers, which is to be expected with any gay personal sites. If you've come across a cutie and he has a membership he can IM you to chat even if you don't have a membership. There are 1,415, 287 active members seeking a partner for fun. Most services like video chat, IMing, and recorded voice introduction requires a membership as well. Nothing here is really free.

Membership prices are listed in tiers and depends on which package you sign up for. Credit cards are accepted and can be broken down into monthly installments for convenience. Gold membership starts at $119.96 for 12 months with 3 months free, 3 months are $49.96. Silver membership starts at $89.96 for 12 months, 3 months are $33.96 every gold or silver member has total access to the entire site and all of its features. Including unlimited access to member profiles and chatting with potential friends or people of interest. The difference between being a gold or silver membership is that paying a membership will guarantee you meet someone you're interested in. You have a little more freedom to roam the site which will help you in the selection process. A little piece of advice though do not send anyone an note if you are not sure he has a membership. If he isn't a member he will not be allowed to view your note and you may think he's ignoring you.

For a gay personals site I give this a 4 rating using a 1-5 scale with five being the highest. This site offers gay members or guys who are curious an opportunity to meet and mingle at a reasonable price compared to other personals in its market. Out personals can also be a great place for guys to test the waters. If they have those questions they need answers. My only suggestion is that you tell that special girl you may have in the wings before you go to have your fun.
