Using dating apps as gay man in strange

Personal Story

Hi, this is just my experience as an anxious guy who is attracted to men, is turned on by seeing men on TV , though it's usually straight passing or straight actors having gay scenes and who is also, important to mention, questioning my gender deeply, I have dysphoria so ... But anyways , looking at this for what I see and feel

I created a gay tin(Der) account to test how I feel talking to gay men, and the majority, big big majority of profiles either look like very arrogant bitchy men with lots of piercings, tattoos etc the stereotype and even have that on their bios , things like "I'm a drama queen, I need lots of attention" 🤮 or they are super overly gym flexing bodybuilder like guys...or a weird looking guy that's not attractive to me (I don't mean any of this rude the debate here is my feelings and if anyone relates? Can take from this and understand why I'm like this?).

I just want to come across a handsome decent normal guy, when I created a tin(der) as girl for 24 hours omg the amount of options of guys I was attracted too. Wtf, I'm just so...I dunno what to do..I see normal gay men in TV shows but

..is that it?
