Can you match with a date based on conversation, not photos? Tinder rolls out 'Blind Date'

In efforts to introduce authenticity to online dating, Tinder has rolled out a new feature called "Blind Date," which pairs swipers up for a chat before they're able to view each other's profiles. "Inspired by the OG way to meet someone new, usually at the hand of a meddlesome aunt or well-meaning friend, Blind Date gives the daters of today a low-pressure way to put their personality first and find a match they truly vibe with," Tinder said. People on Tinder who try out this feature will answer a series of icebreaker questions like "It's OK to wear a shirt ____ times without washing it" and "I put ketchup on____." Based on their responses, users will get matched and see the responses of their potential match. They will then get placed in a timed chat, after which they can choose to match with the other person or not.
