I was never bothered by bumble in principle, but the fact that you call it the feminist tinder puts a whole different spin on it. If that's how people push it then that's very... interesting.
Bumble is such a cute name! I don't get the critics. Yes, women might be more careful with their swipes, but do men prefer to get hundreds of matches, but the women won't even reply to a hi?
I know, I think the criticisms are mostly from men who are bitter because they can't get a girlfriend or literally no women ever reply to them through apps like this. But apparently its a horrible thing to give women more control on dating sites.
I've never used tinder, so I don't understand the more control part. Why are there no more unwanted messages from men. Isn't the rule that nobody could message you unless there was a match?
Pretty nice move, the thing I like about it the most is the time limit, it teaches many women to make the first move quickly. Online dating isn't my thing, I prefer doing everything in person but good job with the review.
It seems to me your standard answer to any male critic is to assail their mmasculinity, social stability or mental faculties. It's possible they just don't like this shit.
Bumble is abysmal. Biased algorithms, worst match rates of any app out there, based on possibly the dumbest and most counter intuitive idea a dating app could ever come up with.
I'm truly surprised it hasn't gone bankrupt by now.
How many women have you approached in the last week? If you approach 5-10 girls per day, you could have at least 2-3 new numbers per week to pick and choose from who you date.
@MusicMayhem 99% of the time. And that really depends on the guy doing it. Good looking guys even get rejected, and that's the rate a man would get rejected and accepted. For a average looking guy its much lower, and if you are below average forget about it. Not even fat overweight women with a butterface will want you.
@MusicMayhem Getting a girls number now these days means nothing, this isn't the 70's anymore. I've gotten so many numbers. Getting a girl's number now these days will most likely put you on the "I forgot you list." I mean I get what your saying man, but women control the dating world way more than men do.
Yeah but get enough numbers and you'll eventually get dates. If all the numbers don't respond then you need to create more value to the girl when you meet her and text her; being funny etc so not just going up and asking for her number straight away cause that's weird as she doesn't even know you.

"Feminist tinder"
"Women are in control"
Sounds about right.
I would have said that too BUT it gives women only 24 hours to respond. That is great.
@shephardjhon
I was just joking... Kind of.
Feminism nowadays means that women are in control. Welcome to equality. #femaleSupramacy

Bumble Bizz actually sounds really cool.

Like Tinder, Bumble is a visual-based dating app, that focuses more on appearance through profile photos rather than personality"
So basically I'm equally screwed on Bumble too? As you mentioned all online dating anway.
trash have not had one woman speak to me all fucking female bots or stuck up bitches
It would probably be quite humiliating for a guy to get matches, but no women actually contact him.
Simples...
That's a risk some guys are willing to take.
Good for them. I personally don't get involved in the whole dating thing.
According to statistics, that is apparently what happens to staggering 75% of male users on Bumble.
@Kuraj I'm 3 for 3 this week on bumble. I'd say maybe 1 in 5 matches don't send a message.
What if a guy is too ugly to get any matches? Like me :(
Then either stop considering yourself ugly and get some confidence
Or... do a makeover.
Sounds fun, I actually have never matched unfortunately.
Bumble is abysmal.

Again, just because you don't like it doesn't mean others can't like it.
I didn't know about bumble, i heard about Hey Nina, or something like that for making female friends but i haven't used it either
What? C'mon that's a bunch of crap, women are always in control in the dating world.

You didn't answer my question. If you're going out regularly meeting women and getting numbers, you'll have options.

@MusicMayhem Yep I agree.
Brilliant take. I sure think if we look wisely, we can learn a lot of things from these apps.
I suck so bad even on Bumble I don't get any messages or matches.
Are u a Bumble employee?
No, as I said in my disclaimer, I have no affiliation with them. I just like this app over others that I have tried.
Ok ty
I might, if i ever decide to again.
Interesting take!
