A dating app brilliantly shut down a lad who accused a woman of being a gold digger
ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER mortifying exchange on a dating app.
Bumble is a dating app much like Tinder. Unlike Tinder, only women can initiate the conversation on Bumble. If a woman fails to chat to someone within 24 hours of matching with them, the match is deleted and everyone moves on.
While this goes some way to preventing harassment, the app still attracts a few dopes. Case in point?
Last week, a gal named Ashley was matched with a lad named Connor.
Connor complained about it being a slow day at work, so Ashley decided to ask what he worked at. You know, normal small talk.

And that was when all hell broke loose.
Connor did not like being asked about where he worked, it seemed.

When she accused him of having a tantrum, he stated that he was merely “keeping it real” and fighting the “neo-liberal, Beyonce, feminist cancer” he encountered
And then he bragged about having a $300,000 salary. Alright, mate.
Bumble Bumble
Bumble were alerted to the exchanges and decided to write an open letter to Connor in which they condemned his behaviour
The app then pledged to “expand our reach and make sure that women everywhere receive the message that they are just as empowered in their personal lives as they are in the workplace”.
In conclusion? Connor won’t be using Bumble any time soon.
