isn't this solving a problem that doesn't really exist? I'd have thought most trans people on dating apps would be fairly up front about it... you know for safety or even just expectations management? I can't speak from experience, my dating life predates the rise of dating apps
Yes, trans folks tend to be pretty upfront for the reasons you mentioned.
This is just some hateful, bullshit, trans panic nonsense. Some people can't even handle the idea that they might as a matter of course be attracted to a trans person given the opportunity.
This tech will inevitably also exclude some slightly less normative appearing cis folks too, but they don't care because they just hate trans people.
I was once downvoted to hell for expressing a similar sentiment on reddit.
