Options mismatch in search and profile

This is a niche issue, but the search function is limited in a very specific way that seems accidental. I was pleased to be able to accurately set my gender, but I can only search for and set myself as willing to cuddle men or women. Not all the options people can self identify as. For example, I want to make it clear in my profile that I'm looking to cuddle with all genders that self identify as men, cis and trans. And also there's no way to search for a gender other than man or woman. Could someone please speak to this? Maybe I'm the only one who cares lol.

    I noticed that as well, and it is sadly not very functional of the site.

    You can't set yourself as willing to cuddle any category more specific than "women," "men," or "everyone" on your profile, but you can search for many different genders of cuddler.

    That said, I personally stopped using the search function because it only allows me to look for people who "cuddle men" or "cuddle women." How can I search for the folks who cuddle those who are neither?

    To find someone who might, I have to search for "they cuddle men," take notes, then search for "they cuddle women" and check my notes to see if any names from the They Cuddle Men results show up in the They Cuddle Women results—then visit each of those profiles to see whether that cuddler has mentioned, in their description, that they're okay with agender individuals.

    Most people have not said anything either way.

    Like you with your complaint, though, I figured maybe I was the only one who cared. I am weird, after all.

    @Mark & @Gary ~ Please read the above...

    I'm curious why that's not available, or if perhaps it just hadn't been considered?

    Either way, can this be changed for folks??

    @DaringSprinter I agree with that same issue - I want to find people who would be open to a guy like me. Thank you for writing it so clearly.

    Thank you for bringing this up. I, too, would like to see enhanced functionality with the search function. :)
