Tinder shot to fame as a dating app for tech-savvy single people. Except, as it turns out, a big chunk of its users may not be single after all.
That’s according to research firm GlobalWebIndex (GWI), which released some figures on Tinder from its latest survey of more than 47,000 internet users around the world that suggest the app has a wider demographic.
In fact, the research claims that 30% of Tinder users surveyed are married, while another 12% are in a relationship. 54% classed themselves as single, while 3% were divorced or widowed.

Mankind has always been sinful. Technology has just made it a helluva lot more convenient.

I wonder what percentage of these users are homos “in a relationship?” That would be an interesting statistic.

ir’s a lot like naked beaches. You really don’t want to see the people that go to them.

All of the homos are always in several relationships.

I am so GLAD I’m not dating these days. If I ever loose Beau, I’m hanging it up for good...unless Tom Selleck is suddenly single, of course. ;)
And I’ll always have my Cyber-Laz, demanding I make him a sammich every few hours so I’ll stay busy, LOL!

...homosexuals have an app all for themselves - it is called Grindr. Yes, I've heard of it, and almost throw up in my mouth considering what it is about.

Tom Selleck is very striking in real life. I used to see him in Hawaii when Magnum was being filmed.
I thought he was most appealing in Friends. I used to imagine being Monica as he hugged her. ( But I only thought that when I was single ;).)

I've read his kind of thing before...that a good percentage of *guys*,at least,on dating sites are attached and are just looking for “variety”.
