  • Everyone Is Talking About This New Date Review App For Women

    Bear with me for a second, close your eyes and picture this scenario. You arrive home from your date with a lovely female companion and you think it went pretty well, although you hold off from texting immediately so you don’t look too keen. You secretly hope she will contact you in the mean time but the call never comes – was your date a dud?

    Here’s where you need to contact a female friend and get her to hop onto Lulu, a new app that encourages women to rate men on their dating prowess. Fin24 reports:

    …Lulu is heavily focused on women who are allowed to rate and it promises anonymous reviews of men as dates. While men can flirt with women using the app, they cannot see who rated them or what they said…

    Women sign up to Lulu to share their dating experiences and rate dates, but the app doesn’t allow the freedom to write any review.

    You have to answer multiple choice questions and rate the man in terms of a number of hash tags.

    So what kind of hashtags are we talking about? You can look forward to #HartKlopTjoklits (“heart beats crazy”), #ShisaNyamaGuy (“braai guy”), and #RokJagter (“skirt chaser”). Men will be able to see the hashtags used to describe them without knowing who was responsible for them. Some good news for men though:

    Males who want to be removed from the application can do so via a self-removal tool, available online.

    So yeah, when you start racking up the less than favourable hashtags you can beat a hasty retreat. The app has already racked up over five million downloads in the U.S., almost a million of which were men wanting feedback on their dating skills.

    Will it rival Tinder and change the local dating scene? I guess only time will tell.
