Popular Perversion Site Gets More Perverse

Tinder is an application on your Smart Phone where you can scroll through pictures and profiles of other people.  Lot's of folks use it as a shopping site to find people they would like to have sex with. Of course in today's sex-filled society....it has become very popular.

It may have started with as an app for men to find women to fornicate with....but now the site has proudly expanded from only having two "gender" choices and is now helping transgender, queer and others find perversion.

Tinder offered only two gender picks prior to a major update Tuesday: female or male. Now, the dating app that boasts more than 20 billion "matches" is offering dozens more auto-fill options for trans and non-comforming users.
The update, Tinder CEO Sean Rad hopes, is the beginning of the solution to problems transgender app users have faced.
"Six months ago we discovered that the transgender community on Tinder was experiencing some harassment on the platform," Rad says. "When we initially heard about it, we were very angry."
Rad says team members regrouped and took their time figuring out a solution, working with influencers from GLAAD as well as their own transgender users. The result is an additional 37 gender options, including Transgender Female, Transsexual Male, Agender, Genderqueer and the option to write in your own term. Users can choose to display their gender identities on their profiles.
According to Rad, Tinder will continue to evolve this update, because "gender is a complex conversation—it’s an ongoing dialogue."
