Fight again racism and help the users build real and meaningful connections by applying an impartial matching algorithm.

Online dating has become the modern version of traditional matchmaking, but with algorithms predicting attraction and attractiveness, is this mechanism only furthering the racial divide?

Algorithms, ranking, and matching are typically racially informed, with dating sites matching users who look like them, reinforcing biases and racial stereotypes. Dating sites shouldn’t attribute attractiveness and desirability to certain groups and definitely shouldn’t categorize certain groups as less attractive.

A More Inclusive Algorithm

These algorithms are only bound to perpetuate racial biases, failing to take into account the experience of the minority. Global dating sites have this ongoing issue, but local and regional ones like CharmDate might appear less affected being a homogeneous community from the same region. Charmdate also intentionally designs an algorithm that is more inclusive and tailored to impartial social and cultural dynamics.

However, that is not always the case in many dating sites. Dating sites’ “relevance algorithm” evaluates the physical sameness of daters, but how about the potential shared values and character traits? Dating platforms should be the champion of fighting against racism. The goal is to foster a dating environment where diverse identities feel valued and respected, treated with equality and grace.

Unfortunately, current systems are only reinforcing these racial divisions and biases. There is definitely a fine line between racism and preference. Instead of predicting outcomes, algorithms should allow users to dictate their preferences and curate their feeds according to their true values and inclination. Moreover, algorithms shouldn’t only base algorithms in terms of good ‘past’ matches but should consider the good ‘future’ matches as well.

Diversity and Serendipity

Racism in dating, if supported and perpetuated, will only become a barrier to true connection and meaningful relationships. It’s about time to see beyond stereotypes and address the issue at both systemic and individual levels. After all, tech companies often just rely on what they perceive to be the established belief systems, values, and norms in society. Individuals should also strive to look inwards and examine their own prejudices, so they can go beyond normative tastes and have more chances of finding the perfect match. As long as racism exists in society, it will also exist online. CharmDate fights against it so that the users can appreciate the beautifully diverse backgrounds and embrace serendipity in dating and beyond.

In truth, love and relationships are more than just about predictions and superficial matching. If dating sites do not fully address the needs of their burgeoning and diverse user base, they may fall short of truly helping individuals form meaningful bonds. For CharmDate, there’s no magic recipe for a successful match, and no amount of surface-level prediction can decode the true nature of relationships and connections. Technology has this transformative power to connect people and expand horizons, but this technology should be harnessed and engineered to facilitate the process of finding a match, and, in no way, dictate biased outcomes. Dating sites can play a huge role in society, but the biggest role should be to expand opportunities for authentic connections.
