With all due respect to the men of the world who aren’t quite as tall as they would like, or feel not as tall as other people would like- I understand that society can be biased to taller men. I also understand the default “clever” comeback when a man feels his height threatened is to go to weight. But outside of people using tinder for 20+ years and rare mutations- your adult height is set. You measure it once. Done. Weight- especially in women, can fluctuate 5-10lbs or more week to week. To “verify weight” and have it up to date a woman would need to have to do a daily proof like a fitness contest. It’s not practical and would largely end up with tinder being a a place for salty short guys to meet other dudes like them when everyone else went to another platform.

Also- height verification is a two way street. Many men do not want to date a woman taller than them, and some taller ladies don’t own their height. Some ladies in the 5’ and under club also might often add an inch or two. To some people that is a big deal. To each their own I suppose. But the point is that while height may seem like a concern only for women it isn’t. In fact lots of shorter guys I’ve known have turned down gorgeous women because the man wasn’t comfortable dating a taller woman even if the women didn’t care about his height. So such a feature wouldn’t be targeted “against” men but towards helping with honesty in an online dating experience. The only people need worry about that are those not being honest I suppose.

That’s what the bio and text messages are for, as well as the dates. As of 2019 there is no definitive and comprehensive way to classify humans into discreet and specific types nor predict with any consistent and encompassing accuracy how they will interact. Let alone to take all the complexities of a human being and summarize them in bullet point in a way that does justice. So any human you don’t know is simply that- an unknown quantity. There usually has to be something to make you want to find out more. The tinder bio gives them a chance to show some personality and the photos and descriptions allow you to gauge physical attraction. Further research by the user is needed to discover personality.

Tl:dr- you can’t tell a persons personality by looking at them, and you can’t get more than hints of it through a short summary. Those take time to learn. But someone you aren’t attracted to physically or on some intimate level but has a great personality is called a “friend.” Tinder is mostly used for finding potential mates- which generally has a physical component.
