Bumble for gay women
At Bumble, we’re dedicated to creating an app that’s as inclusive as doable for our community. We’re constantly seeking new ways to make sure your experience is both positive and empowering, whether you’re looking for a intimate connection on Bumble or a new friend on Bumble BFF.
We partnered with the experts at GLAAD, a media advocacy corporation advancing LGBTQ+ acceptance, to better provide a vacuum that allows everyone across the gender spectrum to feel safe and seen. With GLAAD’s guidance, people can now share more about their gender identities and sexual orientations, enabling them to better convey themselves in ways that reflect who they truly are. Whether you’re identity new to Bumble and just setting up an account, or you’ve used our app before but wish to change or expand how you name, how you show up is up to you.
Now, when asked about gender either when registering for a new profile or updating your existing one, you can select guy, woman, or nonbinary. Once a gender is selected, you’ll see a prompt saying “Add more about your gender.”
If you choose Woman, then you’ll be able to choose from:
- Intersex woman
- Trans woman
- Transfeminine
- Woman & Nonbi

When I finally embraced my bisexuality five long years after kissing my first man, I was elated, convinced that the world would now be my oyster. I thought being bisexual would double my chances of a date on any given Friday night. I couldn’t have been more wrong.
Women didn’t want to date me, fearing that I was using the bi label as a stepping stone to organism “full-blown” gay. Whether or not they’d openly acknowledge it, many feared I’d inevitably leave them for a man. The lgbtq+ men I dated didn’t hold this fallacious doctrine. Rather, they were unbelievably condescending. They’d say things like, “Oh, honey! I was bi too. You’ll get there.” When I reaffirmed my bisexuality, letting them know that this isn’t a pitstop, but a final destination, they’d respond, “I know you think that. I did too.”
So I stopped telling people I was fluid, at least on the first date. It wasn’t that I was ashamed of being attracted to all genders or attempting to hide my bisexuality. I hoped that if they got to comprehend and trust me, they would believe I was bisexual. I also figured it would be easier to then assuage any fears they might include that I’d leave them for a person of anot
What is Bumble?
Why Bumble was created
Bumble is a platform for connection -- not just for those looking for their honey on Date mode, but those seeking new friendships on Bumble BFF, or looking for a new business mentor on Bumble Bizz too. Bumble is a great way to spot the people in your area that may just bring the energy you’re looking for!
Bumble was engineered to challenge outdated heterosexual dating norms. We allow women to make the first move by giving them the ability to control the conversation.
Beyond women making the first step, Bumble is a platform to empower all users to create safe and healthy connections. We support integrity, kindness, equality, confidence, and respect during all stages of any association — whether online or offline.

In same-gender matches, either person has the power to build the first move. Then, the other person has 24 hours to respond, or the connection expires.
