Tinder Update Classifies Female Age Input Over 35 As System Error

WEST HOLLYWOOD, CA—Causing widespread frustration among women who dared to search for love in middle adulthood, an update to the popular dating app Tinder reportedly began classifying female user ages over 35 this week as system errors. “I was trying to set up my profile, but I kept getting the same ‘Birthday Invalid’ error message every time I attempted to enter my age,” said 37-year-old Anna Moreno, explaining that the popup message then prompted her to input a younger, hotter number. “Once the error timed out, Tinder gave me the alternative option of using their facial verification technology to determine that my skin was sufficiently plump and free of fine lines. Why do apps keep asking me to do that? When I attempted to bypass the process entirely, Tinder shut down and automatically downloaded the OurTime app for dating over 50 onto my phone.” When reached for comment, Tinder explained that women over 35 could get around the error by sharing their net worth to see if they qualify to use the app as a Sugar Mama.
