Men Nation Reviews
Men Nation Reviewby No1Reviews.com. Last updated: 21 March 2011 Editor's Star Ratings:
Costs: Basic membership is FREE. However, in order to access all the advanced features and contact other members you will need to upgrade your membership to either silver or gold. The costs of silver and gold membership are listed below, whilst the differences between them are broken down under the Features section (scroll down).
Features:
Performing a Search: The search capabilities available to you as a member of MenNation depend on your membership level. Free standard members get access to the basic search form, whereas silver and gold members get access to more advanced searches.
Editor's Verdict: Many gay men have joined MenNation in the hope of landing a casual gay date. But just as many guys are bisexual or bi-curious and have signed-up to AdultFriendFinder, the largest adult dating site on the planet, looking for girls and guys (and everything inbetween!) Joining MenNation gives you access to all of these guys too through AdultFriendFinder's shared database, and this can really maximise your chances of scoring a date. Ever wanted to break in a bi-curious newbie? MenNation gives you the best chance possible, whilst also giving you access to all the out-and-out gay guys that you would expect to find on a fully-fledged gay dating site. MenNation also boasts all the advanced features of its parent site, including video chat with fantastic quality, the ability to view other members playing on their webcams (often with other members they've met online), recorded member videos and listen to voice introductions. It also gives you access to all the traditional tools you'd expect to find on a site like this, including the ability to send winks and (for silver or gold members) the ability to send emails and instant chat with other members. MenNation's chatrooms are divided up by special interest topics and also by geographical region, so you can chat with other members who share your particular fantasy or chat with members who live nearby. The "Groups" section also has many groups you can join and discussion topics to which you can contribute, ranging from the mediocre to the bizarre! These groups are also split up by region, so if you like you can find a group near you that indulges in your particular fanatasy or fetish. It should be noted that, although for the most part, MenNation have done a good job in separating out the gay subset of members from their parent site's database, that this is not always the case. The groups and discussion area listed under "Groups" is one such area where they haven't done such a fantastic job. You may find many groups and discussion topics here that are non-gay in nature, such as the "Younger Women for Older Men" group for instance. Fortunately, the handy search box on both the discussion threads and the groups section allows you to filter these out and quickly find the gay discussion topic or gay group you're looking for. You may also browse groups and discussions by topic, location and keywords. The "Get Local" section in the top menu is another way of quickly filtering out the groups, discussions, blog posts and articles that have been posted by members near your location. This section also allows you to quickly find "adult places near me" and "meets near me". The site is extremely well organised and easy to use, with many different sections and subsections to the site, all organised intuitively through the top menu bar with its drop-down sub-menus. The site also makes it easy to organise your contacts and favorites - you can create a hotlist of members, keep lists of your favorite member photos and also keep lists of your favorite member videos. The lists of all your received winks and emails are also within easy reach, as are a list of all the winks and emails you've sent out. The internal email client is feature-packed and yet easy to use and, as you might expect, you will have your own internal inbox and outbox so that you can communicate with other members without having to reveal your personal email address. You will also have the ability to filter, search and sort your emails and also to block incoming emails from certain members. The "Activities" section lets you post your own status updates and view the status updates of your friends, facebook-style! This makes MenNation more than just a gay dating site for casual hookups and also makes it a gay social networking community. You can share your photos, videos and status updates with the entire commuity or just with your chosen friends, and all your friends' status updates, comments, photos and videos will be posted to your live feed, again facebook-style! This is a great way to easily keep up to date with your friends' activities and all the pictures, videos and comments can be as raunchy as they like! With many more features than we can possibly cover in this review, our advice would be to sign-up and check it out for yourself. Signing-up is free, and we managed it in about 30 seconds. You don't have to complete a lengthy profile (you can come back to this and complete it in full later) so you can sign-up quickly and for free and check out the features on offer for yourself. Upon joining, you will immediately be able to perform searches and browse for member profiles in your local area. As a free member you'll be able to see who's online, see each member's main profile picture and (if you hover your pointer over his profile picture) you'll also be able to see a thumbnailed selection of each member's photographs. You can also explore the videos section, including the "live member webcams", and explore the groups and topics area. This should be more than enough to keep you busy for a good while and give you a taste for the site and its members. As with most dating sites, you'll get out what you put in. If you're serious about actually finding a casual date using Men Nation, then post some profile pictures of yourself and write something interesting in your profile. You'll need to upgrade to silver or gold membership to actually send an email or chat online, but the membership fees are very reasonable and well worth it. You should note that Men Nation caters specifically for gay men looking for casual sex, either with other individual members or in threesomes or in groups. If this is what you're looking for, then click the button below to check it out. If it's more of a long-term meaningful gay relationship you're looking for, then we recommend GayFriendFinder (another offering from the FriendFinder network) or Gay Date instead. In summary, MenNation is one of our top-rated gay dating site for those looking for casual gay hookups. It has a huge members' database that it selectively shares with its sister site AdultFriendFinder, giving you a lot more choice than you would otherwise get from a gay dating site and hugely increasing your chances of quickly finding a whole host of sex partners who live in your home town. It also has one of the largest selection of advanced features we've seen on any gay dating site and yet is very easy to use and navigate.
