Respect is the starting point

A community you can help shape.

We’re planning manual review of every profile and photo before publication, including later changes.

Share your ideas

Public profiles with care

No nudity, hookup requests, hateful language, degrading descriptions or intrusive demands about someone’s body in public profiles.

Private conversations, clear boundaries

Adults can speak freely by mutual consent. Harassment is against the rules. Reporting and blocking, with evidence preserved, are planned.

A few useful answers

Before your first hello.

Is AQD a hookup site?

No. AQD is being designed for dating, friendship and meaningful relationships. Public profiles are for getting to know the person, not advertising casual sex. Members must respect each other’s boundaries, without sexual pressure or harassment.

Is Aussie Queer Dating open yet?

Not yet. This is a design preview so people can comment on the name, colours, layout and community approach. You can explore sample profiles, but there are no working accounts, messages or memberships.

Can non-trans people join when it opens?

That is the plan. The community centres trans and gender-diverse people and welcomes non-trans people seeking respectful connections with them. Members will choose whom they want to meet.

Do I have to describe myself as queer?

No. “Queer” is part of the proposed community name, not a label you have to use for yourself. We’d like your feedback on the name too.

Will my photos and medical information be public?

Medical information will not be required. Our proposed approach is reviewed photos with member-controlled sharing. The exact privacy settings and full policies will be available before registration opens.

How will reports and blocking work?

We plan to let members report and block, including reporting someone who has already blocked them. Relevant evidence will be preserved for authorised review. Retention periods and access rules will be explained before launch.
