Does dating app profile reflect real-life social status? Internet debates
Jasveer Singh, CEO of Knot Dating, got people talking after he shared on X that his driver had 23 matches on Hinge—including women with impressive jobs.
Singh's curiosity led him to check out the profiles, and he came away thinking dating apps have really shaken up old-school social hierarchies.
'People don't look for rich as much as hot'
Singh's post quickly went viral, sparking a debate about whether apps like Hinge actually level the playing field in dating.
He explained that job titles are optional on most platforms and users pointed out how dating goals differ—casual daters often care more about attraction than wealth, while those looking for marriage might still prioritize financial stability.
As one user put it, "People don't look for rich as much as they look for hot when they are looking for casual hookups."
