If you are a heterosexual man and your only purpose is to chat up women you should be looking elsewhere. It is not allowed to try and make contact with women who have stated on their homepage that they don’t want to be contacted by men. If you are a heterosexual woman and your only purpose on Qruiser is to chat up men you too should be looking elsewhere.
Please note that it isn’t allowed to decline same sex contacts, i.e. you must accept to receive messages from members of the same sex. Of course they must in their turn accept that you may not be interested in being chatted up.
If you, after having read the above, still feel that Qruiser is the place for you then you are warmly welcome to the Nordic regions largest community for homo, bi, trans, queer and those just a little bit gay in general.
At Qruiser you have loads of opportunities to meet friends, visit other members’ websites and flirt. Of course we also welcome you who are young and perhaps for the first time come in contact with homosexual, bisexual and transgender. We hope you will meet lots of new friends.
The internet offers many opportunities but there are also problems with dishonest people and we recommend that you consider the following advice:
• Never give your full name, address or phone number to anyone who you do not know.
• Adults may pretend to be younger than they are in order to try to make contact. If you think that something is odd or an adult is trying to contact you in a sexual manner send an email to abuse@qruiser.com.
• If you plan to meet someone that you have made contact with on the internet – do not meet the other person on your own. Bring a friend along. At least meet the person in a public environment such as a café.
• It is illegal in Sweden for a person over 15 years old to have sex with a person under the age of 15 years. We ask you to immediately contact us if anyone over 15 years old tries to sexually contact someone under the age of 15 years old. In Norway and Finland the corresponding age is 16.
• If you would like to talk to someone about being gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender call Linje 59 (in Sweden) on 020-59 59 00. You can call Monday to Wednesday 7 – 10 pm and speak to other teenagers.
