The book details the author's experiences with dating apps, exploring the pros, cons, and pitfalls from both men's and women's perspectives. It examines the impact of technology on dating culture and the resulting consequences.
I did this book because I had had all of these experiences of my own that I hadn't talked about.
And also I felt like still even with the film which was on HBO, somehow the critique of dating that I hear from all of my sources from young women and men too on Twitter on social media doesn't make it into the mainstream discussion.
And it just hasn't translated into how we talk about Tinder and Bumble and Matt Troop. And it's really, I think important to talk about because they've done this sort of monopolization of one very central aspect of human life which is intimacy.
There's a very big theme in the book because it was through my own experience with dating mostly younger men because when I went on Tinder, there weren't a lot of people my age.
I do not think people should use them. I think they're harmful. I think that they're bad for you.
