‘It’s not you, it’s me’ is the gist of college student qualms with dating apps. Hook-up culture declines while young people search for genuine connection.

    I said it in a different thread.

    I think dating apps were an important tool for women to assert control of their dating lives, ten years ago. And I think for the new generation of young women, a total wall between their daily life and dating life, is less necessary.

    My two cents.

        You don’t know what I am talking about?

        There was a big trend, and it still exists to an extent today, that many woman do not want to be approached at the gym, etc.

        I feel men have finally started adapting to how shitty their behavior was, meaning women are relying less on online dating as a way to stop the feeling of daily irl harassment.
