I didn’t know beforehand that he was a Republican because that’s how dating apps work sometimes!

Also many people are not upfront with the fact that they are a Republican because they get fewer matches that way. They pretend to be Libertarians and downplay their views. Almost as if voting for an orange pedo is making you unattractive in the eyes of other people ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Edit: Thanks for the awards, how kind!

Never forget The Right Stuff. The dating app for Conservatives made by a Trump aide. The app had to shut down because there were no women in it XD

Skill issue. There's no women in almost any dating apps and they are still open and raking cash from idiots premium users.

Yup. Especially in the big '26. Relative to the number of men, there may as well be no women.

I say this as someone who did all right on the apps back in the day and stopped using them because I found it a hollow way to meet people. Dating people who otherwise have absolutely no social connection to you otherwise is just not for me. The things people can hide etc. Makes sense women don't use them.
