I would accept this as long as there is also annual BMI verification.
adminsaregayniggers 5y ago
you can tell who is a manlet from the comments here
RedPilledGodEmperor 5y ago
Part of me wants to act like I'm surprised that this is actually happening, but I'm not. This all plays into women's hypergamy and has nothing to do with men's preferences.
Why do I say that? Most men don't give a shit about height. Whether it's a woman whose shorter, same height or taller, men don't care about height. While many women (even ones who are 5 feet tall) will not date men shorter than 6 feet tall and even choose an ugly 6 foot guy, over a good looking guy who is 5'9"
EDIT: This is probably a very early April Fool's joke. We will have to see if they ever debut this
TheDevilsAdvokaat 5y ago
Gotta be April fool.
But if it isn't - insist on weight verification for females, AND no makeup, AND plastic surgery must be revealed up front.
MattyAnon Admin 5y ago
Full declaration of mental history too
vengefully_yours 5y ago
Matty you really want no girls getting laid.. lol fuck yeah man
MattyAnon Admin 5y ago
I wanna know what flavour of crazy I'm dealing with... I'll still fuck 'em ;)
RedPilledGodEmperor 5y ago
Yeah, most/all chicks are crazy. It's just a matter of how crazy and if they are the good or bad crazy.
Islam-Delenda-Est 5y ago
This is clearly an April Fools joke, and a pretty good one at that.
max_peenor 5y ago
Notice how they used height and not weight as the criterion. The internet would explode with vaginal meltdowns if they chose weight.
Islam-Delenda-Est 5y ago
Of course, joking about women's insecurities would be cruel.
mutageno 5y ago
March 29. I think they are seeing how the Internet reacts, if positive they keep it, if negative "April fools!".
Imperator_Red 5y ago
Yea everyone is saying April Fools... but I've never seen an April Fools joke on any date but April 1. That kind of defeats the whole purpose. The Purpose of April Fools is "haha I got you, you should have known this was fake because look at the date." I think it's real.
Islam-Delenda-Est 5y ago
Here's the money quote:
This would be an amazing feat of AI and computer vision that any tech company would be shouting from the rooftops about. This is 100% an April Fools' joke.
Holiday_Shoulder 5y ago
There are clothing apps that you stand x feet away from the phone and the app can fit you for clothing. Just saying I wouldn't be surprised at all if this was legit. But it definitely could be a gag.......but a gag to piss off a bunch of short bros lol. I guess we'll see.
LuvBeer 5y ago
Yeah and how well are those apps doing commercially? The measurement apps available for Android are garbage last time I checked. (the Apple one got good press)
Bleu_Cheese_Pursuits 5y ago
Well I mean, Liu Hui figured out how to measure the height of a mountain at a distance by using two height-identical poles and some trig \~1800 years ago. If by "commercial building" they mean like McDonald's then this wouldn't be so far fetched I think. But the algorithms would have to essentially create computerized depth perception, unless they have access to a list of commercial buildings' heights somehow. That being said, you could always just wear high-heels for your verification photo.
MattyAnon Admin 5y ago
This simply can't be done from one view without knowing the distance to the person. Theoretically you could use focus/defocus comparisons between you and the building, but that's your only reliable depth cue and it wouldn't be accurate enough.
StarfallRondo 5y ago
I don't think so. But we'll see... And I say this as someone over 6 foot.
Jake_le_Dog 5y ago
Remember that on tinder, you are the least valuable user. Just as in real life, you are easily replaceable. The company's main goal is to keep the females happy. That's why most of you visit.
This entry is written for those women who use tinder. It's catering to their perceived demands, getting a smirk out of them, making them feel like a snowflake.
Whether it's a joke or not, remember, they don't care about you. Only you know how to continue.
Imperator_Red 5y ago
Exactly. Everyone is saying "they'd lose half their male customers." No, they won't.
hominesunchained 5y ago
"Eugenics is kinda cool" - 1870ish-1939.
"Eugenics is evil!" - 1945-1999ish.
"Eugenics is evil! (Unless it promotes the feminine imperative)" - 21st Century.
In the last quote, replace "eugenics" with pretty much anything you can think of and it will remain accurate.
Even if this is an April Fool's joke, it's not far off becoming reality. For the record, I have no real problem with eugenics (loosely defined as "the promotion of good genes"), but the hypocrisy on the left is simply astounding.
MichaelBolton513 5y ago
Some office employee working M-F 9-5 probably posted it Friday because they didn't want to be late
jamesistheman7 5y ago
Let's see this with weight verification (and yes, your children from 3 different daddies count as added weight)
u-r-silly 5y ago
Even as an April Fool's joke the outrage would outweight the laugh.
Cloak77 5y ago
But their weight would still outweigh everything else.

good_guy_submitter 5y ago
With all this I will need an AtM verification. If she's not cleaning the chocolate puddin' pop then it's a deal breaker.
Psychological_Radish 5y ago
Clearly a joke but it wouldn't surprise me if this became reality in the near future. Bumble recently introduced a feature allowing women to filter out men using a variety of criteria, including height. In that sense Tinder is somewhat more egalitarian.
cobalt1728 5y ago
This may be a "April Fools" Joke, but why was it released before april fools?
This seems like more of a "beta test" to see if society will accept this. Which it will. Because men today are pathetic.
ChadThundagaCock 5y ago
Those idiots would lose 90 percent of their business. Most men aren't 6'3. This is an April Fools Joke for sure. If it's not, then Tinder just made the worst business decision in the history of business decisions.
Mineralrecords 5y ago
Do you idiots actually think that is real? How can a person capable of reading be so stupid as to believe such an OBVIOUS joke?
SnowMonkeyCracker 5y ago
Checks calendar. It is a legit April Fools.
The female equivalent would be to take a selfie on a see-saw to calculate true weight.
HomeHeatingTips 5y ago
Men need to boycott Tinder asap. Untill there is weight verification for women. This is a sexist double standard and shouldn't be tolerated
entrep4 5y ago
It's clearly a joke, and you're making the entire TRP community look stupid by actually believing it.
HomeHeatingTips 5y ago
Are you saying I got Onioned?
Bleu_Cheese_Pursuits 5y ago
I mean I think that the only men who'll stop using it are those under 6'.
party_dragon 5y ago
Oh come on, relax, shitlord! It's an awesome April Fool's joke!
Jejmaze 5y ago
Does anyone actually think this is serious? You know that it’s possible to be sarcastic on the internet without /s right?
Reformed65 5y ago
"Our verification tool is...extremely hard to misuse."
I'm sure.
ShinyRedKetoPill 5y ago
That would be a joke.
In South East Asia Tinder is full of pre-op ladyboys in the "female" category. People sent feedback for years. Tinder ignore it.
So it's ok for guys to have their time wasted showing up for a date and seeing a dude in a dress on estrogen but we have to verify our height... Crazy talk!
adminsaregayniggers 5y ago
how brain damaged are you that you can't identify a tranny before you're buying him dinner
ShinyRedKetoPill 5y ago
I didnt have it come to that but I am sure it has happened to some newcomers.
It gets annoying having to swipe through and two thirds of profiles are misrepresenting their gender.
MarcosDomingues 5y ago
Srsly tho, why are there so many trannies in Thailand?
majaka1234 5y ago
It's a socially accepted "third gender".
Since there is no stigma then you get a bunch of people doing it far more often than if there was a stigma.
I also suspect a large proportion are simply incredibly feminine gays since only a portion actually get the full surgery or even simple implants.
LuvBeer 5y ago
Yes trannies or "ladyboys" in Thailand are more socially accepted than other countries and for example feature on network TV, but it's usually in an entertainment/comical role say on a game show, and they are singled out by police to shake down because they are known to be prostitutes, so not exactly fully accepted. Personally all the trans people I met on Tinder in and in RL in Thailand were very careful to specify that they were trans up front.
ShinyRedKetoPill 5y ago
I was thinking of Philippines. But yeah Thailand will probably be similar.
Tinder should have a category for that. It is not fair to allow misrepresentation of such a crucial detail. Weight, height, education... Meh. But gender.... Fuck yeah I need accuracy in the profiles!
majaka1234 5y ago
I just report it as "seems like spam".
womans_algorithm 5y ago
Even if it is april fools, it's still sexist to men. I wonder if they will make "post selfie without makeup" anytime soon.
GlowInTheDarkDonkey 5y ago
Blonde jokes are sexist to women. Who gives a fuck? Why the butt-hurt, shorty?
NobodyP1 5y ago
Then these me chilling at 6”2
GeorgiR 5y ago
"Simply input your true, accurate height with a screenshot of you standing next to any commercial building. We’ll do some state-of-the-art verifying and you’ll receive your badge directly on your profile."
Uhhhh. Doesn't sound very reliable does it
anyway, can't wait for the weight verifier soon!
u-r-silly 5y ago
People on internet had called-out short guys by measuring pixels of doors and furniture in the picture. It would definitely be possible, and with AI to boot. Obvious joke but think about the shit that actually came true. 1984 WAS NOT A MANUAL
curiouschipmunk1010 5y ago
Weight Verification:
"Simply input your true, accurate weight with a screenshot of you standing on any commercial scale. We’ll do some state-of-the-art verifying and you’ll receive your badge directly on your profile."
MattyAnon Admin 5y ago
If it was reliable they wouldn't need you to enter your height first.
Nokia_8 5y ago
Who cares? We knew taller guys are at an advantage anyway.

xxxtraicion 5y ago
tip: Wear shoes and make your hair thick and up-combed with some product. Then you'll be over 6'0 and it'll be impossible to tell you're 5'11
Theyllneverkn0w 5y ago
There's no way their "advanced technology" will be able to tell the difference between 5'11 and 6'0 based off of a picture. I think if you add 2 inches or less to your height you'll be fine.
Bazino 5y ago
Pretty sure their tech won't even recognize when you photoshop yourself to have longer legs, etc.
Truedemocracy4 5y ago
I think it’s hilarious when my clearly not 6’ friends act like they are
Holiday_Shoulder 5y ago
They fucking believe it in their souls that they are 6' too.
JurassicSteven1 5y ago
A girl told me once that a guy she went out with had told her that he was 6’4 and then when she met him he was shorter than her and she’s 5’8. She said he never said a word about it. I honestly was impressed.
MakeAmericaRichAgain 5y ago
He should have played it off as a system error. "I said I was 64 inches tall. Shit must be broken."
showerdudes9 5y ago
This is so fucking hilarious im actually going to do this for real. Im 5’8”.
MarcosDomingues 5y ago
Please report back the reactions xD
valenin 5y ago
Dude’s dick must have been so big he added its length to his height measurement.
JurassicSteven1 5y ago
I could see that. She said he was weird af and they didn’t go out again. You know the weird ones always packing a hog on em. Either way I poured one out in salute of his courage.

Sirkisskindofman 5y ago
Ok, but how did it go bruh... Obviously they didnt get married, but did he smash? You're leaving your anecdote completely open ended and ambiguous. This is r/ trp not r/ tinder homie. Make a point about your observation on height, is what im trying to say
TheRedPike 5y ago
One more space on either side next time. But I approved this one.

classysocks423 5y ago
as somebody whos 6 foot, I fucking wish this was real lol. That shit would be like a blue check on twitter
wholewheatdirtydog 5y ago
Im fairly certain they will claim it was a early April fool's joke but then again they need to keep a large female consumer base in order to attract guys to the app and then make them buy Tinder plus and what not. Im 5 10/5 11 so im not too fussed.
Imperator_Red 5y ago
Briffault's law has been extended throughout all aspects of our society. The only things that matter are those which fullfill some need or want of women.
StarfallRondo 5y ago
The instant you bring up Tinder needing to add a "weight verification" for females, they all lose their heads tho. lol
Smerdakas 5y ago
Tinder's AI should make recent body pics obligatory. I'm tired of fatties with 5 different face selfies.
[deleted] 5y ago
Or when they have 5 group pictures and you basically have to triangulate which one she is (hint: she’s the fat one)
baddorox 5y ago
hahahaha I don't think it's sick though. Maybe a little cruel, but that is all.

30 years old faced only rejection because of my height, get denied jobs because of muh skin color. I'm honestly at the point in which suicide is looking better and better.
MrRaspberryJamz 5y ago
If it's any help, a VP at my company (large technology firm you've most likely heard of) is only like 5'4" or 5'5".
Guarantee he didn't get into that position overnight.
[deleted]

Angry_runt 5y ago
Obviously a joke.
Besides, this can't be done from a technical standpoint, at least not in the way they described. I suppose they could ask you to take a snap of your driver license if you're from someplace where there's height included on it. Even then the only difference would be the verification badge.
pacjax 5y ago
u dont need verification to see Im 6'4 in my pictures lul. Im not gonna do that

[deleted]
Wolveryn 5y ago
LMAO, pretty sure any guy lying about their height is going to get spotted as lying when they meet the girl and they're a foot shorter than stated.
There is absolutely no possible way that tinder can access corporate building details and use image recognition to get any descernable accurate understanding of the subject in the foreground based off nothing but a single photo.
This is 1000% obviously a April fools joke.

I think Tinder is not taking themselves seriously and this is an aprils joke. Quite funny to be honest, the best jokes are those hard to tell from reality.
Lesic 5y ago
Reading the comments here, outcries of angry manlets against it, made me laugh out loud.

trumplethinskins 5y ago
I'm truly shocked that this sub attracts insecure manlets like moths to a flame. Shocked I tell you.

Outcries? Everyone is laughing at the April fools joke. It's funny.
