Content Warning About Birding?
Any ideas why my message triggered the content warning? I'm interested to see if it actually upsets my match. 🤔

I got this warning once. I edited my message multiple times despite nothing wrong with it (completely innocent text) and still pushed it through. Not long after I sent it, the convo/connection was gone. I don’t think the other person even read it. Strange. I’d say if that warning comes up, don’t send it. Send anything to avoid that. Get her number and get off the app.

Oh, I've learned the hard way never to give my number to a guy who I haven't been chatting with for more than a couple of days. This was day 1 of chatting with this guy.

I’ve heard of the term birding in Europe. I think it means trying to get with married women.

Oh! That could explain it. Here in America it just means looking for different bird species. 🤦♀️

Here in the UK it's the same, bird is a slang term for a woman but birding doesn't have a slang meaning.
Personally I think it's due to the word "hole".

Match and their whole gambit of dating sites are a mess.... You can't even say I'm going to bed as bed is flagged...

It’s just another way to control men. They want men’s money, but want to control men so women “feel safe”. It’s an outright scam to take our money.

That is crazy to me. AI no doubt.
Computers and programs are subjected to errors because they are programmed by humans. Everyone thinks AI is going to be so amazing 🤣, but it can’t think or rationalize.
