Notes from Chris

Episode 2152

Long ago we featured the dating app for dog lovers, and that led me to some research in which I discovered all kinds of specialized dating apps. There are several based on religion or background, like J Date or Christian Cafe. There are others for single parents. There’s even Farmers Only, which asks, “Single in the Country? Sign up for free to find a farmer, rancher, cowboy, cowgirl or animal lover.”

Today’s caller has an idea to start her own app for people who identify as asexual. What’s the best path forward?

“Hi, this is Kathryn and I've been following you for as long as I can remember. I identify as asexual, which is an orientation where you just don't feel much sexual attraction to anyone. It's a common myth that this doesn't exist, and thankfully now there are communities like Reddit where I was able to learn more once I understood this was how I felt.

It's important to note that just because someone is asexual doesn't mean they don't want to have a relationship. Many of us still experience a longing for romantic or platonic relationships, we just don't necessarily want the other parts.

I know this is an ambitious goal, but what do you think about a dating app for people on this spectrum? I've done some coding classes and have some time on my hands, since I work remotely for a job that doesn't require a lot of effort. Or if an app seems too complicated, what else would you suggest?”
