| Brony in disguise Regular Member   Gender: Gentleman Orientation: Me and my boyfriend are very happy Out Status: Ask and you shall find out Location: Worcester Age: 19 Posts: 205 Join Date: Oct 2011 |  Does this surprise anyone? Ever since I have effectively been out, spending more times looking at LGBT issues, joining my Uni LGBT on Facebook and spending some of my time browsing here I have noticed the vast majority of the adverts on other websites I visit are for dating websites. Every single one of them for straight men... Something tells me if the internet is able to pick up on who I am surely it would show me more appropriate adverts? Anyone else noticed this?

The sites I commonly visit usually advertise food. My favourite website is sponsored by Subway, so... Yeah. Apart from that, I don't really notice advertisements much in my day-to-day internet life.  |

On Firefox (the browser I use mostly), I have ads disabled. But on Chrome, I keep getting ads about MMORPGs, anime and video games...which isn't surprising.
