Why can't it be allowed to happen? I mean, nobody as far as I can see was forced, coerced, deceived or tricked into doing something that they did not want to do. Some guys wanted to meet some females that have specific qualities, some females wanted to meet some guys that have specific qualities. Things like that happen - both in RL and on specialized sites - literally every second. Do you have to like it? No. There's a lot of things that people do that I don't like. However I would never imply that should not happen - apparently, there are a lot of people that do like doing those things, and as long as there are people willing to do this and nobody is hurt, it's their business, not mine. So I wonder - why exactly should not it happen?
>>> But if this isn't insulting to women in tech
Who is "women in tech"? It's not a person that you can insult. Why "women in tech" should have single opinion about anything and be - all of them, collectively - insulted by something? And why, if some woman or multiple women are insulted by this, we shouldn't wait for them to tell us if they are insulted and listen what they are insulted by, instead of trying to guess it and wield that imaginary insult as a weapon?
