I just joined this today. I'm like wow.
I know there is a Tinder thread, but it's already completely useless to peruse through. 35 pages and growing? Get outta here!
So I wanted to start a thread for assessing the social impact of Tinder. That's it.
The way I see it, this is the marginal effect in a variety of dimensions:
1. More opportunity for status whoring by girls
2. More approaches by men for each girl
3. Increased access to opportunities will increase likelihood of cheating for both sexes
I'm sure there are many more, but these off the top of my head.
I see this rendering cold-approaches totally moot, but on the other hand, guys who do cold approaches will still have the advantage of voice tone and body language. However, this will never beat a solid picture in terms of sparking initial attraction. The question is whether a good picture and "don't fuck up" game is enough to carry you to the finish line. My experience says probably not. This relates to the next point.
There will increasing interest directed at the top 10% of women. Exponentially so. This could have adverse effects on their likeability, making them bitchier and more difficult than ever before. Will it also lead to girls riding the carousel harder? Will girls increase bangs as access to fresh cock becomes easier than ever before? I think we will see marginal positive effects here. Small, but significant.
Tinder could become - could - the NASDAQ of Sexual Markets. We will see how attractive mates access to larger markets of potential mates will send their market value through the roof. In some ways, this could be a benefit as it could mitigate assortative mating tendencies where highly educated people seek out mates at institution of higher learning, which is where most people find their spouses - it is the largest sexual market today. Tinder could help change things back to a more even distribution, which would be good for things like national and social cohesion (to some degree).
As women who are not hot are increasingly rejected, we might also see a more direct incentive for improving looks, losing weight, and making serious efforts to improve how photogenic a girl looks. Some of the improvement will, of course, be fake, but a lot will be positive.
As for cheating, this can be dealt with by increasing monitoring, but keeping an eye on a bitch is an emotional pain in the butt. Men in particular, in their quest for variety, will be especially hard-pressed not to continue hunting for new pussy when pussy is so bountiful. Before it would take donning some nice clothes and heading out and running game. Tinder reduces initial investment costs by allowing you to retain your best looks in picture form while allowing you to continue your hunting efforts.
As a force for good and bad, I see multiple scenarios, but overall I think Tinder will have a positive social impact, since it can force people to confront certain truths about themselves that could possibly lead to better attitudes towards life and relationships.
I'd love to hear what you other guys think.
PS. Statistical analyses from Tinder could be super interesting. As a first off, I bet you could show a huge positive impact for a girls chances of getting a "like" if she's got long hair, even after controlling for every thinkable alternative explanatory factor.
