16 Best Most Active Cities For Easiest Tinder Hookups

If you haven't had any luck on Tinder lately, you have probably blamed yourself at least a little bit. On Tinder, you only have a second to decide whether you like someone or not and if you get a match, it doesn't necessarily mean you will get anything beyond that. Not even a date. But according to a research, it is not yours or anyone's fault. It turns out that some places are simply better for hooking up compared to others. How exactly? Well, not all cities have the same number of people and the same number of single people interested in casual sex. The bigger the city, the better the chances that you will get a match and get laid. In smaller places though, things aren't so great and it's much more difficult to get a match that will actually lead to casual hookup.
Tinder also allows Tinder Plus users to use a special feature called Passport which means that you may get a match from New York for example, even if you live far away from that city. This is useful to those who plan to travel as they can check out the market before they arrive and save some time. If you want to learn what cities offer the best possibilities for a hookup, check out 16 Best Most Active Cities For Easiest Tinder Hookup.

15 Most Sexually Open Countries in The World

Even though the society changed so much over the past 60 years or so, in some countries and cultures, sex is still taboo. Not all countries and parts of the world are equally open and sexually liberal, and so there are some differences between how different cultures perceive casual sex and sex in general.
While in some places, younger generations are encouraged to start having sex early and they are even taught on techniques on how to satisfy their partners, in others such behavior would be regarded as immoral. These differences are very interesting though. In 15 Most Sexually Open Countries in The World, I discovered what the most sexually liberal places are and how people there perceive casual sex. There are some very interesting facts about different countries and cultures, such as Mangaia Island which teaches their teenagers how to be good at sex. I suggest you take a look if you would like to learn more about this topic.

10 Biggest Illegal Industries and Black Markets in The World

People want to earn money and they want it fast. That's the way the world has always been functioning and nothing is changed nowadays. Black markets are flourishing and crime rates are increasing. A black market is characterized by non-compliant behavior with an institutional set of rules or in this case, production and distribution of goods prohibited by law. Anyone who engages in the production and distribution of these goods is a member of the illegal economy such as prostitution, drug trade, etc. There are entire industries that make money buying and selling illegal things and some of these industries generate more money that we can possibly imagine. 
Human trafficking is one of these unfortunate industries that we are often unaware of. Many people are victims of modern slavery and yet somehow we remain blind to their pain and suffering and we don't do enough to save them. I was interested in learning just how much big these black economies and industries are, and how much money they generate.

12 Countries with the Dirtiest Air in the World

Insider Monkey staff compiled a list of 12 countries with the dirtiest air in the world and these countries have very, very high levels of PM2.5 particles which have been linked with lung cancer, chronic obstructive lung disease, bronchitis, asthma and many other health issues. Most of us are aware of pollution caused by vehicles, industry and oil drilling but very few know about dangers of so-called "household" pollution. There are two types of pollution: indoor and outdoor pollution. Outdoor air pollution is caused by harmful gases produced by factories, power plants and of course, vehicles. Heavy metals and other pollutants area easily spread by a wind which means that no country is safe as long as global changes do not happen. This explains why dirties air is concentrated in specific areas/countries. Countries with the dirtiest air often include developing countries which are close to each other. 

Industrial growth and urbanization aggravate the problem even more, especially in countries which are not economically stable and have no means to implement eco-friendly solutions and reduce air pollution.Problems with indoor pollution are much more frequent in developing countries because people are not educated about air pollution and ecology and first of all because they do not have resources to use eco-friendly fuels. Instead, they use whatever they have, including, wood, cow dung, coal, charcoal and even trash and old tires. These practices produce high levels of pollutants such as fine particles and carbon monoxide. Exposure is higher in women and children because they tend to spend more time indoors. Insider Monkey's list also shows that a lot of countries whose economy depends on oil industry have very polluted air. Reason for this is, of course, the very process of oil production which pollutes the air to large extent. Anyhow, it is crucial to raise awareness of air pollution on a global level. After all, the air we breath is crucial for our existence and well being.

16 Biggest Animals in the World Found Alive

Have you ever wondered which the biggest animals alive are? What is the biggest land animal, what is the biggest animal in the sea? These questions awake imagination, since we know many stories about horrors and unseen creatures dwelling in the deep deep ocean.

We all know Nessie, the Loch Ness monster, or the mighty Kraken, but are they real? Well, it seems they are not, but their origin might not be just a fairy-tale. Some of the biggest creatures living today might clear the origins of the Kraken for example. Yes, you have guessed, it is the Giant Squid. Scientists have recently caught on camera the largest specimen ever recorded, in the waters near Japan in 2006.

But how do we measure the biggest of the biggest? What is the criteria: length, mass, volume? How about all of that?

In case we focused on the length as the primary criterion, we would have gotten the bootlace worm (Lineus longissimus) ahead of everyone on the list of biggest animals in the world found alive. This animal is a part of a huge family of ribbon worms and lives in the waters of North Sea. It can reach up to 197 feet in length, but, as their name says, they are around an inch thick. It is surely not the largest sea animal but surely is the longest.


Well, this worm surely is long. But, if you want to find out which those biggest animals in the world are check out the Insider Monkey’s article 16 Biggest Animals in the World Found Alive. You will also get to see which is the biggest animal ever to live on the Earth, and you might be surprised that it is not a dinosaur, or megalodon, or any such creature, but our contemporary mammal.

15 Gayest Countries in the World Per Capita

Let’s see what is there to be said about being gay in 21st century. Since homosexuality is still not being accepted in many countries:

…  not everyone will admit they are gay. But that is the matter of social issues in particular countries and regions in the world. For example, research has shown that views on homosexuality depend on several factors. It seems that tolerance toward homosexuality is greatly influenced by religious impact in the country, the wealth of the country and freedom of speech. So, the most opened regions towards homosexuality and most gay-friendly countries are Europe and North America, while the least gay-friendly are the Middle East and African countries. In some of those, homosexuality is even punished by death.

That is why is getting out of closet still serious matter and problem for many gay people. While the gay population worldwide is 3-5% (and some researchers claim that the figure might be up to 10%), it should be expected that the figures are the same for each country in the world, since it is a universal thing. But that is obviously not the case, as you will see in the article on 15 Gayest Countries in the World Per Capita. As noted in this article, the data we have on the issue of being gay in different countries relies on some independent various surveys that were conducted throughout countries. SO, even though this data might not be a 100% reliable, that is the closet thing to real situation that we have. But if you are interested in this issue, you will read more about it on the article we mentioned above.
