If you’ve ever taken Tinder for a spin (you can admit it, you’re amongst friends) you’ll know that the dating pool is full of some weird and ‘wonderful’ people.

Of course you can just swipe most of them away, but sometimes you nab a match and then the wheels really come off.

Take for example 31-year-old filmmaker Jessie Kahnweiler, who has had her fair share of run ins with blokes who think a good sex pun is a form of foreplay.

Here’s IOL:

Kahnweiler comes across as frustrated and exhausted with online dating, but she doesn’t react angrily to these men. She has some questions for them; namely, “Do you act different online dating than you do when you’re normally trying to date a girl?”…

But here’s the thing: If you’re online looking to meet someone, why not act as you might in person? We often treat online communication, especially among strangers, as if it’s all about the transaction and finding what you, the user, wants. But conversing with a person is not like ordering coffee to go and then picking it up at the counter, exactly as you ordered it online 10 minutes earlier. A point that doesn’t always sink in among online daters.

Maybe we’ll all learn a lesson from this video below, or maybe dick pics and sex puns will continue to make Tinder a walk on the wild side.
