Is this just a natural lull or is this thread dying out?

There were quite a few different posters on here to start off?

Still here lurking - keep meaning to post but then get sidetracked

I think the jury were swayed by this being an untested premise by the rapist's defense...the intention to use tinder is to find a sex partner. The problem with this premise is it's subjective - basically swiping right is equivalent to saying "yes" to sex or in other words providing consen...
