兩篇關(guān)于Online Dating的有趣文章的摘錄
Quoted from conclusion:
In the early days of the internet, there was widespread hope that digital technologies would help break down stereotypes and bring the world closer together. That hasn’t happened. If, however, interracial dating is thought of as a kind of prism, one reflecting a wide range of intersecting dynamics and biases, a peculiarity of online dating apps is how they tend to crystalize these preferences. By bringing together a highly diverse dating pool into one place, they bring these preferences, and their underlying biases, into the light.(SIXTH TONE)
Quoted from TIME(2020):
Overall, the study found, Internet dating is a good thing, especially for singles who don't otherwise have many opportunities to meet people. The industry has been successful, of course — and popular.Digital dating is now the second most common way that couples get together, after meeting through friends.
Physical appearance and other intangible characteristics may certainly be part of the spark that brings two people together, but having to sift through hundreds of profiles may become overwhelming, forcing the looker to start making relationship decisions based on increasingly superficial and ultimately irrelevant criteria.Over time, people start to form inflated or overly particular views about the other person, which leaves them at risk for being disappointed in the end.
In the real world, it takes days or even weeks for the mating dance to unfold, as people learn each other's likes and dislikes and stumble through the awkward but often rewarding process of finding common ground.
Online Dating 是否加劇了戀愛的偏見化?是否會更加容易錯過注定的另一半呢?兩篇文章的調(diào)查顯示這些情況確實存在。
但我們還是一個保有一些懷疑態(tài)度。
選擇——分類,這一過程中是否會有偏見化的思維和刻板化傾向的產(chǎn)生?沒有生活了解的網(wǎng)約是否危機重重?(比如我在手機聊天里比較外向,可在社會中或許表現(xiàn)的更加內(nèi)向)
或許更加留心,也許通過研究會有新的天地。
