There is a big jump from letting someone do some swipes on your Tinder profile with your permission to forcing an unwanted marriage for third party gains.
Yeah. But I wonder if this is catering for those people whilst framing it another way, or if people really have some good use for their mom/dad choosing their partners.
Yeah, guess you’re right. And the overlap between “we need to find you a righteous man / timid girl from our own religuous community” and “my son/daughter uses tinder” is small enough so it’s not of any concern.
I wouldn’t like somebody else pick my dates. But I guess I’m going to read another article at some point, outlining some use-case for this.
It’s not even swipes. It’s an overlay showing which potential swipes have are recommended by your chosen recommenders (who can’t message or interact with any users). The first step of actually choosing to swipe left or right remains with the user.
It is quite common, in places like the Indian subcontinent. Though I really doubt Tinder will be able to make any significant dent of it’s own in this domain here.
Wow, I think that’s the best example of ‘framing’ I’ve seen in a long time. Aren’t things like arranged marriage considered controversial?

Yeah that’s like saying someone setting you up on a blind date is arranging a marriage for you

Thanks for doing the research.
It’s not.
