Hank Social: Kink, Community and Connection Beyond the Hookup EP 793

On EP 793 of Talk About Gay Sex, Steve V welcomes Hank Social co-founders Ido Barbibay and Eido Gat for a conversation about creating a different kind of online home for gay, bi, trans and kink-loving men.

Ido and Eido introduce us to HankSocial.com, a community-first social platform designed to bring kink and fetish communities together through authentic interaction—not simply swiping, scrolling through torsos or searching for the next hookup.

The conversation explores why kink communities need dedicated spaces where members can express themselves openly, protect their privacy, learn from one another and form genuine friendships and connections. The guys also discuss the importance of safety, discretion, consent, moderation and giving users control over who can view their identity, photos and content.
