In anticipation of the upcoming NFL draft, GuySpy.com, the premier location-based gay dating app for men, uncovers the top NFL cities with active gay communities.
(PRWEB) April 27, 2013
In anticipation of the upcoming NFL draft, GuySpy.com, the premier location-based gay dating app for men, uncovers the top NFL cities with active gay communities.
GuySpy, the fastest growing location-based gay dating app for men, has released a study of their member base that ranks the top NFL cities where gay men can feel at home among an active gay community.
With the excitement of the 2013 NFL draft this week, sports fans are just as curious about the identity of the number one draft pick as they are about who will be the first active gay NFL players to come out publically. To show their support for these brave NFL players, GuySpy.com has compiled a list, based on their almost 1 million members, of the top NFL home cities where gay men have the best chance of finding others in their community to help celebrate the historic announcement.
The top five NFL teams located in home cities with active gay communities are as follows:
1. New York Giants
2. San Francisco 49ers
3. Arizona Cardinals
4. New York Jets
5. Dallas Cowboys
While all 32 NFL cities show a strong GuySpy member base, the St. Louis Rams and Greenbay Packers landed at the bottom of the list.
“We can’t easily predict what city that first gay NFL player will come from, what we can predict is that this athlete will be elevated to super star status amongst our community.” said Morris Chapdelaine, executive editor of GuySpy.com, adding, “The first openly gay, active NFL player will become more than just a highly regarded professional athlete, he will instantly become a role model for gay youth everywhere. While the burden of this responsibility is not light, the payback during and after his NFL career has the potential to be enormous.”

(PRWEB) June 29, 2012
Popular gay chat app and blog reaches out to the international gay community to show support for LGBT rights by taking part in this summer’s WorldPride celebrations.
While East London is gearing up for the Olympics and Buckingham Palace is still reveling in the pageantry of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, Soho, London is preparing for its own moment in the global spotlight – WorldPride 2012 – and GuySpy is proud to be an integral part of this monumental event.
“Pride London’s commitment to campaigns including men’s health and well being, love without borders and the decriminalization of homosexuality world-wide, is part of why GuySpy was so keen to take part in this international event. A large part of GuySpy’s mandate is to be a community leader and utilizing our global reach through the mobile APPS and our hugely popular website, GuySpy.com, we are able to get the word out to millions of people,” said Morris Chapdelaine, executive editor of GuySpy. He added, “Pride London is a charity run entirely by volunteers and staging the largest un ticketed event in Europe takes a lot of hours- and sponsors are an integral part of its success.”
London has been chosen to host this year’s WorldPride parade which means the celebrations will be bigger, better and prouder than ever. The LGBT community from across the globe is expected to descend on the city for two weeks from 23 June – 8 July for a festival of art, culture and campaigning culminating with the Parade through central London on Saturday 7 July.
Chair of Pride London, Patrick Williams, said “WorldPride is much more than just a party. There are 41 countries in the Commonwealth where homosexuality illegal and in some cases punishable by death. This summer we want to give the global LGBT a safe place to celebrate and be proud regardless of who they love, but we will also be using our time in the spotlight to campaign for a safer environment for them to return to. We are thrilled to have GuySpy as a sponsor this year.”
