MensNet (メンズネット)

Mens Net! Are you located in Osaka and trying to get your dick sucked? Are you visiting Shinjuku and need a shag? Are you a gay guy and considering traveling for, among other reasons, carnal activities? Then Men’s Net Japan is a place you might want to look into before or while you are in the country. And we will find out why in the next fourteen hundred words or so.

You Can Target Regions To Find People

Chiefly, Men’s Net is a networking website for gay men located in Japan. And just like Grindr, most of the men on this platform are looking for sex (though there can be more to it), but instead of being limited to just your local area, you can connect with people all over Japan.

I’m not an expert on the region, but it looks to me that every major city has classifieds you can post to. Moreover, there are several options to post to specific prefectures within Japanese metropolises. Whether it is Kansai, Hokkaido, or the greater Tokyo region, you will find loads of personals of people who want to bust loads.

Outside of Japan, this website also hosts ads for China and a few other regions beyond the Land of the Rising Sun. They are not as thorough, of course, but it’s a feature that I’m sure some of you might be able to benefit from, depending on where you are located.

Whether you are looking for a date, as we will look at in the next section, or just to bang, there are several ways to chat people up. Besides direct messaging, you can talk to people using four potential chat room types.

There Are People Looking For Dates And Long-term Relationships, Too

Other than getting a good lay, Men’s Net is a decent place to get a romantic date. Of course, that is no guarantee that you will find the love of your life or anything, but there is a decent shot that you’ll meet someone interesting.

As with other internet networking platforms of this kind, these posts will not be the most common. But if you are looking for love, not just lust, this might be a decent means of getting what you are looking for.

By the way, if this is your thing, it looks like people who smoke are going to have a good time finding a partner.

The Website’s Design Dazzles Me On Multiple Levels

Alright, this platform is not at all unnavigable on several devices. Not only that, but as someone who has made many of them, I think I can say that it is not a poorly created website, either.

But it perplexes me the ‘look’ that the designers used.

The main background color changes from page to page, which I think is a little strange, and the elements and text can be auburn, mustard yellow, white, blue, or orange-ish. And that is just a few examples that I can talk about.

(Why do some web creators have such an inconsistent approach to making online platforms?)

There is a way to select what geographical region you want to examine when it comes to posts, and there is also an onsite search engine. But I find the means of getting from page to page to be a little bit cumbersome. Perhaps that is because Japanese isn’t my native language, but deciphering some text and finding certain things can be a problem for me.

And it would appear that the web designers sort of acknowledge this, too.

To quote text that can actually be found on this website, “This system is difficult to use, and the system is difficult to use.” Yep, that is an actual quotation (or at least the English equivalent of) writing witnessed on this platform. So take that for what it is worth.

I Like To See That There Are Almost No Adverts To Distract You

Personally, I am not fond of advertisements on my sites, as you can see, but it isn’t inherently problematic to me. There are many ways to make money online, and as long as you aren’t spamming people, I say, go get that cash. Men’s Net does not have too many advertisements for my taste, nor do they have any pop-ups from what I can see. These factors are a definite plus, in my opinion.

I Think There Are Questionable Characters On This Site

Alright, there is one thing that really caught my eye when first looking at this website, and that’s the many warnings about watching out for scammers and the like. As I began to look over this website, I found that there was even more reason to be concerned about this platform.

There are several highly detailed posts about sketchy behavior happening on this website, including phishers soliciting or sending bogus emails, mobile phone numbers, and other means of getting information out of people for no good.

They also have posts about being kind to others, which isn’t a reference to their standard terms of service. Men’s Net actually has a special, prominently displayed post about not being an asshole. It seems to be that this website has such a problem with fame wars or people attacking others that the admins have had to shut down entire discussions.

And the drama causers are not limited to just the ‘typical’ treacherous types – there are other weird-ass people on this site.

I’ve even found posters who, apparently, brag about having syphilis and act like it’s a boast-worthy thing. I’m not slut shammer, but doesn’t it seem obvious that this is something you go to the clinic to get fixed before advertising an interest in hooking up?

Please, tell me where I’m illogical in my thought pattern.

Make Sure You Follow The Rules

With occasional drama and the apparent (and understandable) aggressiveness of administrators, you will want to read what not to do when you join this website.

Non-Japanese Readers Might Run Into Some Problems

Since my website is written in English, and I’m guessing most of you probably have a decent handle on the lingua franca of Britannia, I think that this is an important point to bring up.

Clearly, Men’s Net is a website for those who are citizens of Japan – or at the very least, residing in that country. Therefore, if you read that language or at least have a decent grasp of it, you’ll be just fine. However, if that is not the case, then you might be in for a little bit of a struggle.

Of course, the degree to which you’ll struggle to understand the text on this web platform will depend on the native tongue you understand. But if I had to guess, if you’re from outside of Japan – since they inspired the Nipon writing style – then you’ll have a hard time.

Now, I know you’re probably thinking, “wait, isn’t there translation software that will sort this issue out?” And to that question, I say, yes, there is. The thing is, even in the age of high-speed internet, the 5G network, virtual reality porn, among other fantastic innovations, translation software seems to be sorely lacking, in my opinion.

You can use tools like Google Translate, but certain cultural nuances will read ‘weirdly’ if you are not familiar with Japanese. Hell, I read all kinds of languages, and certain sentences confused me.

There is also the fact that not all users will spell everything perfectly, and some text is not typed out but rather presented as .jpeg images. That means that not everything will be translatable no matter what software you use.

That doesn’t mean that this site is indecipherable, but it is something to consider.

The Mobile Version Is Decent-ish

Ever since the mobile phone revolution circa 2014, the measure of a website has always been how it looks on a handheld device. When it comes to Men’s Net, I really don’t know what to say exactly. On mobile devices, this platform looks and runs fine, but it isn’t the most optimized. I guess you could say that this isn’t a point in favor of or against Men’s Net, but I think this another one of those things I need to bring up.

Looking At Everything, I Find This Website To Be…Interesting

Now to bring things to a determination, this site has a lot going on – both good and bad.

I think that you’ll have a good chance of getting in touch with someone for dating or doing it, and if you are located in Japan, you’ve got a good chance of getting lucky. So I want to say again that you may not get a mind-blowing sex life, sensual relationship, or both, but I think that it is a possibility.

Imma give this one three and a half hands out of five. Try it out and see what happens.
