    Wow, I think that’s the best example of ‘framing’ I’ve seen in a long time. Aren’t things like arranged marriage considered controversial?

      There is a big jump from letting someone do some swipes on your Tinder profile with your permission to forcing an unwanted marriage for third party gains.

        Yeah that’s like saying someone setting you up on a blind date is arranging a marriage for you

          Yeah. But I wonder if this is catering for those people whilst framing it another way, or if people really have some good use for their mom/dad choosing their partners.

      It is quite common, in places like the Indian subcontinent. Though I really doubt Tinder will be able to make any significant dent of it’s own in this domain here.
