On a serious note...

Yesterday I matched with a really attractive Asian guy and I was quite pleased with myself.  He was very nice.  We had a lovely conversation.

Today he's deleted Tinder because apparently he's fed up with racist girls matching with him so they can call him the p word and a terrorist.  Does this make anyone else feel sick?

If you don't happen to fancy people whose skin is a different colour to yours, that's totally fine!  Just swipe left!  But for goodness' sake, don't match with someone so you can be horrible.  All it does is causes unnecessary bad feeling and makes the rest of us women look bad.

Tinder may be a bit of a laugh, but it has taught me that everyday racism is still a huge problem in the lives of non-white British people, and it's really disgusting.

Plus I may have missed out on a nice date thanks to racism, so even if you, the reader, are a racist (which I sincerely hope you're not), you can't blame me for being a bit miffed!
