AffirmSpace
Dating apps make you date. Support forums make you talk. Nobody puts dating, chat, community, and LGBTQ+ friendly healthcare in one place — until now.
Early, real, and growing. Join as a founding member and help shape what AffirmSpace becomes.
AffirmSpace is a social platform built for the global LGBTQ+ community — a place for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, non-binary, pansexual, and asexual people, as well as anyone still figuring it out, to date, chat, join a community, and find doctors and counsellors who understand LGBTQ+ experiences.
Instead of having to use one platform for dating, another for conversation, another for community, and search somewhere else for LGBTQ+-friendly care, AffirmSpace brings these experiences together in one place.
Built by a team based in India, AffirmSpace was created around a problem we kept seeing: every dating app treats you as a profile, every chat app treats you as a stranger, and healthcare discovery can leave LGBTQ+ people searching for providers who understand what they are dealing with.
So we built one platform for LGBTQ+ people wherever they are — whether you are looking for a connection, a conversation, community, an event, or support.
Dating, chat, community, events and LGBTQ+-friendly care — each part of AffirmSpace is designed to give you a different way to connect and find what you need.
Match and message gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, non-binary, pansexual, and asexual people — real connection, not endless swiping.
Private and group chats with people who already get it — no dating pressure attached.
Find LGBTQ+-friendly counsellors and explore gender-affirming care resources without having to start your search from scratch.
Meetups, workshops, Pride events and LGBTQ+ experiences — online and in person.
Groups, discussions and a social feed built around identity, shared experiences and interests.
A space to talk about personal experiences and topics without making your public profile the focus.
Go beyond dating and connect with people through shared interests, experiences and conversations.
Guides and information covering LGBTQ+ identities, healthcare, relationships, wellbeing and topics people actually search for.
None of the major LGBTQ+ platforms combine dating, chat, community, and healthcare discovery in one place. AffirmSpace does — because we kept running into the same problem ourselves: no single platform treated all of these experiences as connected.
We're not the biggest platform in this space yet. We're building one specifically designed to hold these pieces together — by a team that started from the same questions our members are asking.
That means you don't have to choose between finding a date, finding people to talk to, finding your community, and finding support. They're all part of the same space.
Your identity is yours to define. Whether you're openly LGBTQ+, exploring your identity, or still figuring things out, AffirmSpace gives you space to connect at your own pace.
We're building AffirmSpace around transparency, privacy and giving people more control over how they connect.
Counsellor and healthcare provider profiles can give users information about names, specialties and areas of focus so they can make a more informed choice.
Where anonymous participation is available, you can choose to interact without putting your public profile identity at the centre of the conversation.
Your personal information is not sold. Learn more about how information is handled in our privacy policy .
