Bae

@adamstark had a feeling this comment would come up. According to their press release, there was a study that found a bias against minority in traditional dating sites. This led to them founding this. Also, if you are of a different skin color there is no problem ofcourse, why would you even imagine they wouldn't let them join or that defeats the purpose?

@adamstark Good one.

@zabimaru_ichigo because if a bunch of people who happen to be white join, it's just a regular dating site. It defeats the purpose of being a site for people of color, because it became a regular dating site. Not hating on the founder, I'm sure it's all with the best of intentions, just think it's a tricky situation.

@adamstark gotcha, it would be a dating site yes, but one with less bias against minorities. I think it would be good if people who are white join as well. The goal I think is not necessarily to be an exclusive dating site for black, but rather a dating site with out bias towards minorities.

@j_nce Well "people of color" refers to black people that's why I said that. I'm not saying that site should be for black people; it's the way they word it.

@j_nce @brianjgerrard I always thought the phrase "people of colour" refers to blacks.

@j_nce @mirmayne Bae was made to enhance dating for people of color ( a term often self ascribed by Blacks, Africans, African-Americans, Afro-Latinos, non white hispanics etc). The app has no intention to exclude anyone, rather to enhance and create a safe space where people of color can find something meaningful online, just like other groups
