I once heard a woman say that dating apps basically turned dating into shopping. To be clear, she was criticizing the effect that the apps have had on dating and society. It takes something that should be deeply personal and basically commercializes it to an experience no deeper than choosing your next purse, and if that purse has issues with being treated like stuff, well, guess I don't need that purse. Ofc, I'm a dude, and was lucky enough to avoid all this bullshit, so I can't speak from personal experience.
