Tinder Bans Most Teens (gizmodo.com)

Posted by msmash on Thursday June 9, 2016 @05:25AM from the how-to-hookup-101 dept.

Tinder says it will stop allowing users aged 13 to 17 to use its app starting next week. The dating app has allowed users in the aforementioned age range to match within their age group since 2012. Gizmodo reports: The change makes sense given Tinder's status as a hookup app, its features that make it easier to find orgies, and various age-of-consent laws that could potentially land the company in hot water if anything involving a minor goes wrong. It likely won't be too hard to get around the restriction, and might just involve changing your birthday on Facebook.

You obviously have not had the privilege of living in european area that has many north african refugees/immigrants, otherwise I don't think you'd be so cavalier about "saddling" your daughters with nudity taboos.
