Everybody keeps saying how Tinder is a "hookup app." Even those who say it's transitioned to a more conservative dating site still say how it largely remains "hookup-based."
Does that mean that users can be overtly sexual there, which would be considered vulgar on a site like Match.com? I don't mean to be crude, but if it's a hookup app, does that a mean that when there's a mutual match, a man can introduce himself by saying something to the effect of "Nice shoes, wanna Mod cut." -- and it's something that's expected and not out of the norm? Or is it still expected that there's some kind of neutral or conversational "getting-to-know-you" stuff?
On a site like OkCupid or Match you can't write a message which is overtly sexual. It's considered inappropriate and rude. But is it OK on Tinder?

Reason: Inappropriate language.

Most of the men who I communicate with on Tinder do not make sexual comments to me, so I wouldn’t suggest you do that unless you’re sure that she’s strictly looking for hookups.

There are people who found relationships through tinder, but it's mostly a hook-up app for young people between the ages of 18-25
I lasted less than a day on there. I'm not even really conservative, but after seeing the trashy stuff on there I felt like running to a church and asking for a Bible.

Tell that to all of the 25+ people who are on there. I'm meeting a guy tomorrow who's 42, never married, has not made any sexual comments to me, and says that he's looking for a LTR.

And even women who are looking for hookups might not respond positively to porny vulgarities from a stranger.

LOL! That's how I was with POF. It was my first experience with OLD and I lasted less than 36 hours.
Felt like runnin' home to mamma!
OP, what do YOU want to get out of your Tinder experience? Do you want to be taken seriously?

I think it's pretty apparent from the OP that he is looking for sex without any fuss.
