Comment on Women Dating Safety App 'Tea' Breached, Users' IDs Posted to 4chan

Yeah. I mean, I get it. The concept of the app makes sense. And I would be that, on average, it is/would be used for good.

On the other hand, as a guy, the idea that people are out there sharing reviews of me as a person on the open internet, and I have no way of knowing this, is deeply unsettling. Like, I haven’t done anything wrong - just the whole concept feels very gross.

Especially because the app is called “tea”, like the slang term for gossip. The letter of the intention may have been good but the whole thing is toxic.

Sucks it’s necessary.

You want women to not just assume youre an insane violent rape monster? Shit like this is how we know.

Or you could, like, fix your entire gender; idk.

  Can’t tell if you’re being transphobic to trans femmes or supportive to femme leaning enbies.

    Mostly neither, somewhat the latter.

    I’d say that’s supportive of femme leaning enbies rather than transphobic towards trans women.

    I kniw right? Its pretty fucked, but sometimes belief that people, or even men, are mostly good gets you raped or crawling through a puddle of your own blood with fewer than four functioning limbs.
    
    Cynical bitches like me though; we tend to make it out.

You could ask someone you know to register and share the login, it’s a flawed concept. There’s probably a bunch of partners in there who didn’t even know their boyfriend used their info to create an account to check on themselves.

My problem is how it’s implemented.

An app where you simply post a name and a location, and then people can DM you with their experiences directly, would be a lot less invasive.
