I have been paying for a Gold subscription for about a month and I literally have got zero matches in that time. MAYBE one or two. I don't think my profile is that bad, objectively. So why is that? Is it just because I am a man? If so, why is Tinder not taking steps to equalize the app experience between men and women? My thesis is that Tinder is preserving this imbalance because it is financially beneficial for the app to maintain an unhealthy level of competitiveness amongst men..
