"A brilliantly observed book that decodes modern dating from A to Z... Brilliantly witty translation of what men really mean." - Femail,Daily Mail
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 cis-het men especially,the blatant misogyny encountered during every swipe session is depressing and enraging in equal measure. And then there is the not-so-blatant stuff. Scrolling through profile after profile,you'll see the same stock phrases: Good vibes only. Must have banter. Just ask. But what do they actually mean
Through her Instagram account,Aileen has heard from thousands of people on their dating experiences,in addition to her own years spent on dating apps. This dictionary of douchebaggery is part reference,part rant and part rallying cry for anyone navigating the sometimes gross and exhausting experience of dating,but also just for everyone who is sick of the patriarchy,whatever their relationship status. A fun small hardback,Tinder Translator is the perfect gift for friends (or for yourself) - whether they're dating or not. It will make you laugh,sigh,think,and leave you feeling empowered and resilient.
