U.S. — A popular dating app announced a new feature that would allow men to filter out women who support accused child murderer Lindsay Clancy.
OkCupid developers announced the new addition to the app after men expressed a desire for a product that would allow them to be paired with women who don't empathize with a woman on trial for murdering her three young children.
"It's a pretty simple concept, really," OkCupid spokesman Mark Sidwell explained. "There are a lot of men out there who would rather not waste their time with women who think the patriarchy is responsible for a woman murdering her kids or similar actions. Our app helps pair them with women who aren't crazy."
The updated version of the app aimed to help men in the dating world screen for suitable women who don't think it's understandable to kill your kids if you have a case of the blues.
"We've already received overwhelmingly positive feedback for the update," Sidwell said. "It's been out for about two hours. I think there's a real demand from men who want to date women who don't rationalize infanticide. It's a great way to determine if a woman is, as they say, 'wife material.'"
At publishing time, developers were also considering adding filters for women who think Luigi Mangione is attractive, women who voted for Kamala Harris, and women who follow Candace Owens.

I could have used that feature many years ago, would have saved a lot of time...
Match not found. Try again tomorrow.
Gays: “We just want to live our lives. We don’t want to recruit.”
Feminists: “Men and women will not share bathrooms. That’s ridiculous.”
Pro-Abortion: “We don’t support murdering babies.”
Trust your local conspiracy theorist. Never trust the left.

Of course, there needs to be a similar app for women, to filter out crazy guys.
Ladies of FR: What characteristics of men should it reject?
The Bee gets me every time.
Define “Dating”...
Just as a woman her views on pro-life.
True story:
In the early 1970's MIT had recently "gone co-ed" in the dorms, and historically there was only one bathroom on each floor (for guys) and other than toilet booths, it was open -- a line of urinals and farther back, an open shower room. Basically a locker room without lockers.
So at first to accommodate the girls, they designated the bathrooms on alternate floors for the girls, meaning longer distance to walk and climbing lots of steps.
That didn't last long. A few of the girls started using the boys bathrooms on their floor for convenience. The guys didn't mind, of course. Shortly thereafter a dorm meeting was called, and it was agreed that all bathrooms on all floors were declared "co-ed". There were a few questions, but no dissenters.
It worked great. Later, the first time I visited a friend who was studying there, I was greeted in the shower room by a lovely and quite naked young lady. What to do? I took a shower alongside. It was, as they say, liberating.
OTOH, that sort of informality and easy acceptance wouldn't work these days, and not outside of that college environment. But it was an interesting experience.
As for men pretending to be women going into a women-only bathroom, ummm, no, that's entirely different.
As a man and a disinterested party to the conversation;
Gay Guys, Democrats, Muslims, and Feminist.
exactly.. this is not good satire, too close to reality
Almost stung except I didn’t know who Lindsay Clancy was.
Satire or not, men should watch these before considering stepping into the dating ring:
Obsession (2026)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FVc007hu7vE&t=109s
Fatal Attraction (1987)
Basic Instinct (1992)
Disclosure (1994) A computer specialist is framed and sued for sexual harassment by a former lover turned boss who initiated the act forcefully, which threatens both his career and his personal life.
imagine the first date
Man: “So... What do you think about the Lindsay Clancy Case?”
Watches his date’s reaction intently, thinks he sees a gleam in her eye, asks for check
I thought it was true at first. It’s a really good idea.
Ask them if they think women should still be allowed to vote. If they answer yes, then they’re not about to think out complex issue...or maybe they are, which is even worse.
Dating apps really should do this.
Only one.
In fact, only one man.
Laz.
I can see how that could sound like a good idea to a young man in the 70s.
