The dating scene these days really is awful. If they aren't looking for just sex, then any resemblance of a "serious" relationship is usually fleeting. Everyone is disposable, because there is always someone potentially "better" a swipe away. It's pretty sad, and I feel bad for this younger generation. I wish Tinder never existed.

#12This reads like the "internet scare pieces" that were common "back in the day" (lol), circa the late 90s. The summary is: People are doing things they used to do in person, only now on the internets, and its bad for some reason.

#15So I found this article completely lacking in real information. They could at least misrepresent an inconclusive study or something. This isn't even trying. It does set the topic for a possibly interesting discussion. In the era of tinder is the dating scene better or worse for your stereotypical HN user (geeky/nerdy). Is there any evidence of a 90/10 rule for promiscuity in humans?

#16"DATING apps are fuelling rampant rates of sexual promiscuity, according to a leading Brisbane sexual health doctor who “quite frequently” treats patients who have sex with up to 10 people a day."
The rest is just more of this biased dude's opinion. Save your time.

yeah i had a discussion with a friend recently to this end. they were making a bunch of arguments against the internet that seemed to just as easily apply to the printing press.
