> I know quite a few women who are disgusted by the number of men just looking for short term gratification that tinder and the like attract.
Why are they disgusted? Tinder seemed to be a direct clone of Grindr early on, and was focused on “here are people near you, looking for casual sex”.
When it got popular, the new influx turned it into a dating site, but it’s whole interface and design is for hookups. Getting mad at men for looking for hookups on Tinder is like getting mad at someone on Uber only wanting a lift somewhere.

For young conservatives, short term gratification is just as much of a problem as for liberals.
If anything, I would expect it to mirror the ratio found on sites like eHarmony- basically more long term / marriage / family oriented than Tinder would be.
That said, it is a dating site- men outnumbering women is practically guaranteed.
