Gender Filter — Free
Gender filtering is the most-requested feature on random chat platforms. Most platforms lock it behind a paid subscription. Here, it's free — no account, no coins, no premium tier. Set your preference before you start and you'll only be matched with people who match it.
Chat with Gender FilterWhy Gender Filtering Matters
Gender preference in random chat isn't about exclusion — it's about comfort. People have different reasons: some women prefer to chat with other women because it reduces encounters with unsolicited content. Some users are specifically looking to make friends with people who share their perspective. Some are practicing a language and want specific partner types.
The problem is that most platforms that offer gender filtering put it behind a paywall. They call it a "premium" feature. We disagree. The ability to have a comfortable conversation shouldn't cost money. Gender preference, like country preference, is a basic matching parameter — not a luxury.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I filter to chat only with girls or only with guys?
Yes. The gender preference filter lets you specify your preferred match before connecting. Set it to female, male, or any, and matches will respect your selection.
Is gender filtering free?
Yes. Gender filtering is available at no cost with no account required. It's a standard filter alongside country filtering.
Does gender filtering guarantee I'll only match with my preference?
It significantly increases the probability, but not every user fills in their gender accurately. We can only match based on what users self-report. Combined with the skip feature, it creates a comfortable experience.
Is gender filtering respectful to non-binary users?
Users can select 'any' as their preference, and self-reported gender is user-controlled. The filter system reflects individual preference without restricting or judging anyone's identity.
Why do other platforms charge for gender filters?
Many platforms lock gender filtering behind a paid tier to monetize user preferences. We believe that filtering by comfort preference is a basic feature, not a premium one.
Does gender filtering make me safer?
It can improve your comfort, which is a form of safety. But always use it alongside the report tool and instant skip for maximum safety.
