The Spin
Narrative A
Despite attempts to create the best profile pictures or inquisitive taglines, higher class individuals still notice specific cultural and linguistic differences in their online peers, prompting them to stay away from certain potential matches. For all its efforts, the digital dating industry has yet to conquer the inherent discriminatory nature of human beings.
Narrative B
While everyone wants to fix income inequality, the solution is likely not to change how human beings date. Despite popular claims to the contrary, humans naturally mate based on similar religions, cultures, education levels, and intelligence levels. Factors that play far less of a role, albeit not 100% of the time, include personality traits like extroversion.
