If you're trying to escape hookup culture, OkCupid is a great place to start. The app is not specifically targeted toward the LGBTQ+ community, but the framework of OkCupid allows for anyone to enjoy the app. Through a series of different and lengthy questionnaires, users can present the most vulnerable, detailed versions of themselves on their profile, which can help cut out superficiality. The questions can range from whether you like cilantro to your favorite music genre — and even contemplative, philosophical questions about politics, religion, and life in general. Using your answers from the questions, OkCupid connects you to potential matches based on how compatible you are.
