Grindr conversation has been delighting social media users—and it might just be the most consequential hookup let-down you’ve ever seen.“Hi, are you a top?” one Grindr user says.“Hey,” the screenshot-er replies. “No, sorry.”Subscribe to our newsletter for a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.Then comes the kicker: “Never, never ever apologize for being yourself,” the first user says. “That’s how the straights kept us down for a hundred years.”We previously highlighted this conversation back in May 2020. (Remember those early lockdown days?) And the same two screenshots just resurfaced recently on the r/gay_irl Reddit forum, where they’ve received nearly 1,400 upvotes at the time of this writing.It’s become a gay internet classic!“Damn… that’s wholesome,” one Reddit user commented. “I wish i could get messages like that…”Someone else said, “Actual king sh*t.”And a third person said. “Not all heroes wear capes.”“No response is indeed a response.”We may never know who this affirming hero was: As far as we can tell, the earliest online record of this chat was when Instagram user @grindrmeme posted it in July 2018, but the source remains a mystery.Regardless, we think these two bottoms would agree that their three-minute interaction had a bigger legacy than any one-time hookup.Here are a few more reactions to the bottom hero summit:What an amazing individual.
