Tinder would be able to counter a little this by showing the % that the other person swiped right. Women (and I guess Men) would be able to filter out those who swipe right 80%+ of the time...

(I've not used it - maybe this already show this?)

In a system as shallow as Tinder it's often hard to find reasons to swipe left. You're allowed a handful of pictures and a few words about yourself. Everyone puts their best foot forward, selecting their most attractive pictures and saying little of substance about themselves in the tagline. Unless someone's appearance is unattractive to you don't really know enough about them to make a judgement either way. It seems that men err on the side of approval, while women err on the side of disapproval.

To be honest, I don't think there are any men who are regular users of Tinder who swipe right less than 80% of the time.

I don't think I've swiped right even 20% of the time. Wonder if you can extract the stats from the iOS backup files...

There's conflicting pressure here. You're still playing the odds by swiping yes and no 50% of the time. You could curb this by going with total count of yes swipes per day BUT Tinder wants people to swipe. Disincentivizing the swipes seems counter productive to the brand.

Actually they should do this. Many guys I know swipe only right and my girl friends hate that. Maybe this will be an unintentional result of this tweak :)

They probably wouldn't do this because I'd guess that most men swipe yes at a _very_ high percentage.
