You think you’ve tried them all? Well, think again. We previously posted Gay Online Social Networking/Dating Sites and five is just not enough. Here are five more sites with a little info and very brief reviews.
In this edition, we’re featuring a mix of sites virtually unknown to most Filipinos and sites which have become a gay household buzzword.
1. DestinationMale.com
DestinationMale is a custom designed site, conceived and developed by gay men who share a dream to produce the best possible gay hookup and dating site. Gay men expect much more now. Many have been disillusioned by the promises of the early dating sites to deliver Mr. Right and have turned instead to the options hookup sites offer. They believe there is a growing market for a hybrid site that offers both gay and bisexual men a comfortable place between hooking up for sex and serious dating while at the same time provides them a sense of community and continuity.
In my own experience with this site, finding men is easy. Easy if you’re looking for mere penpals and long distance pseudo-relationships as most of the members are from the other side of the world. Not only that, there are only quite a few members online at any given time. The interface may be quite confusing at times but it has the same “user-friendly” functions that other sites also claim to have.

2. Fabuloush
Fabuloush is a community site especially designed for the gays, 
lesbians, bisexuals, and transgenders. Their mission is to strengthen the ties among their members. They have forums, confession box, and matchmaking, which aim to provide the opportunity to keep existing relationships exciting, make and explore new contacts, and for members to express themselves. Members can keep in touch with other members on a more personal level through private messaging and by building barkada lists. The fabmeter gives them the chance to tell another member how fabulous he/she is. Articles and news stories keep the members updated about events, trends and issues.
This Filipino dating/community site has been around since 2005. Perhaps the hottest thing that this site has offered its members was their Userplane-enabled chatroom, more like the one guys4men has – only this one offered not-so-blatant displays of things-down-there. Their profile pages allows users to rate other users – known as the fab meter. Grand meet-ups/eyeballs, parties, awards nights (Grand Fab Awards), Multiply group accounts have also sprung up from this site. It really is one heck of a community and dating site! (Or should I change that to it really was?

3. Dlist
DList’s purpose is to provide gay men with everything they’d get from an online profile site but with better features and more of them. It has many of the features of manhunt.net, nerve.com, friendster.com and myspace.com but we’re worked to make them so much better than those sites.
As well as being a site where gay men can meet other men from around the world, there are regular parties thrown for DListers in New York (and soon they’ll happen around the country). Dlist.com also features DList Radio, DList’s Internet radio program that broadcasts live every Saturday night from New York’s East Village.
Dlist is one of my personal favorites – probably my most favorite. It’s simple and clean interface makes navigating through the site and finding guys easy! There’s a lot of eyecandy here. The bad news for Pinoys here in the Pinas is that there are only a few local members on the site – which makes dating or hooking up close to impossible… unless you’re into long-distance relationships and webcam “hook-ups.” The site caters mostly to New Yorkers but also has members from all over the world.

4. Gaydar
Gaydar is a worldwide, profile-based
dating website for gay and bisexual men, women, and couples who are at least 18 years old. Although many of the individual profiles are publicly accessible on the Internet, to gain more functionality and interact with other users, a registration is required and a guest profile must be created.
If you’re looking for Pinoys and AFAMs (A foreigner around Manila) who’re into chat, relationship, dating, hookups, in and around the Metro, then this site definitely is for you. Of course, you can still resort to Guys4Men (hmmm I think you’ve noticed by now that I’m a big fan of G4m) for an even wider coverage. The chat feature of this site is powered by the Java platform. It is nice, but it may also cause your computer to slow down. The only major difference between G4M and this site is (aside from the color palette) it’s degrees or levels of membership. You can be a Guest member with very limited site functions (maximum daily profile views and messages sent, etc.) or if you’re willing to shell out some extra cash or swipe money off your plastic, then you might wanna consider upgrading to premium memberships. But trust me, even just a Guest membership can get you somewhere!

5. Gayromeo
GayRomeo is a worldwide Internet forum, chat and dating community for gay, 
bisexual and transgender men. The site was established in October 2002 by PlanetRomeo GmbH in Berlin, Germany. According to its own figures, GayRomeo has more than 442,000 registered users worldwide and is the biggest German-speaking chat and dating community for gay, bisexual and transgender men in the web.
Our friends in the southern parts of the country (Cebu, Cagayan De Oro and Davao) comprise most of the local membership of this site. Since it is German-owned, expect to see lots of hot Deutschmen as well. This is also a nice site, but like Gaydar, there are also premium memberships which will give you unlimited access to all the sticks they offer! What I like most about this site is the sound alerts when you receive messages or when one of your favorites has gone online.

Oh and if you thought we’ve featured all of them, you’re wrong! There’s still more to come! 
We have been friends for nine years and in the first six of those years, they never knew I was gay. I came out to them some three years ago, but I haven’t really told them how it’s like to live as a gay man in this world.
And it does so dramatically. There are many lists containing Filipino swardspeak and they are great resources to learning and understanding the terms that our fabulous friends in the federation use on an everyday basis.
