About this deal

The latter said he had spent 1.725 billion dollars (about 1.4 billion euros) to buy the Korean company. I’m not going to sit here and write all these adjectives and preach about this book like a religious script (nothing against religion btw), without noting that if I had read this book a year, two or even five years ago, I would have felt this enlightened. Nope! Ignore the thousands of crying, angry, jubilant men in sports stadiums the world over – they’re not dramatic, they’re passionate. It’s likely a group of women behaving in the same way would be characterised as hysterical. Tinder Translator is a hilarious and revealing feminist commentary on dating apps and the patriarchy, from Aileen Barratt of @TinderTranslators. The development of video chats or the geographic expansion of the research field has enabled large groups to retain their customers.

Tinder Interview with Aileen Barratt - The woman behind Tinder

Barratt has an important message to share with daters. She believes that most straight women have been conditioned from an early age to accept bad behavior from men and that many (but not all) straight men take advantage of this. In Tinder Translator, she shares some of the red flags that point to bad behaviors that range from lazy to misogynistic. Honestly the chapter where she translates "Looking to date and see what happens" was absolutely * chefs kiss * beautiful. Can't stop thinkin about it. Do you have any dating books that you've found to be helpful? Please sendmeyour recommendations. I'd love to hear about them! But as you begin to open up and invest more of yourself, you require a bit more from your partner. And that’s when the no-drama men go on the defensive.

I loved everything about this! Except the misogynistic a*holes depicted obviously! Who likes those? My response is always the same: think that question all the way through. Are you saying you’re so worried about having no boyfriend that you’d rather have one that isn’t right for you? Because the answer to “What if I don’t meet anyone who can get over the bar I set?” is that you’ll be single. Maybe for a long time. Tinder Translator is a hilarious and revealing feminist commentary on dating apps and the patriarchy, from Aileen Barratt of @TinderTranslators. Ten years after the introduction of Tinder, dating apps have changed the terrain of human interaction, but many feel like they've been sent into the wilderness without a guide. For those dating cishet men especially, the blatant misogyny encountered during every swipe session is depressing and enraging in equal measure.

On Tinder.com:I must note; the book is in no way disappointing, no, I’m disappointed by the ‘norm’ I had been subscribing too without truly knowing how harmful it was to me. I’m so frogging 😋 happy that this book has found me in this moment of my life. It’s something I truly needed to reflect on and many things I needed to experience to genuinely feel like this is a translation for all the frogged up things I’ve experienced.

Her new book, Tinder Translator: An A-Z of Modern Misogyny, is the product of her popularity on social media. It breaks down dynamics of dating into 26 chapters, each referencing a letter of the alphabet, like “Y is for You’re Not Like Other Girls.” It comes out on Nov. 15. Some of the tools developed by the company may eventually be offered to users of the very popular dating app.Entertaining read. However, it’s no wonder men don’t put effort towards her, as they do not wish to date her. For centuries it was used to describe a female-only neurotic condition, and by the 19th century, it was a medical term for women who displayed signs of distress, anger or depression. Tinder Translator is a dictionary of douchebaggery for the modern dater – and a hilariously sharp read for all feminists – from Aileen Barratt of @TinderTranslators. It will make you laugh, sigh, think, and leave you feeling empowered and resilient. I am the person! Aileen Barratt, I'm a writer and digital marketer based in Manchester, UK. I like in a lovely house with my son, who is almost 7, and I was on dating apps (well, on and off them) for about 3 years. At times it can be soul destroying being on there - so much grossness, line-crossing sex talk when you haven't consented, and general dullness. I started Tinder Translator because I kept noticing patterns of language, common phrases that don't mean what they say. A prime example of this is "just looking for some fun" - fun means casual sex with no further expectations. And there's nothing wrong with casual sex, but just say that's what you want! It also made it less depressing when I'd come across an awful profile; instead of despairing about the state of men I could think "this will make great content". I think that some of the people who send me bios feel that way too now, they can screenshot and send them in, and share in the despair/laugh at it all. Laughter is powerful! What is the biggest impact of what you do?
