And, yeah, that’s a lot of dicks.Grindr surveyed its worldwide user base, in addition to compiling anonymous, aggregated profile data from user accounts, to identify sex, dating, travel, and pop culture preferences and trends.For example, Grindr users selected the “missionary” position as the most popular “Sex Position of the Year,” followed by Backshots, a position allowing for deeper penetration; the “69” position; the “side” position; and spooning.“Missionary often gets dismissed as ‘boring’ or ‘vanilla,’ but this view overlooks the profound intimacy and intensity it can offer; eye contact, passionate kissing, the sweat of your partner drip[ping] onto your chin — these moments aren’t for the faint of heart,” Grindr sex and relationships expert Zachary Zane said in a statement.“Each year, ‘Unwrapped’ is our love letter to the queer community,” Tristan Pineiro, Grindr’s senior vice president of brand marketing and communications, said in a press release. “It’s our way of celebrating the voices and moments that make our community so vibrant while honoring the trends and perspectives that unite us globally.”Below are all the 2024 “Grindr Unwrapped” rankings.
