Swiftfishing (verb): The act of pretending to be a Taylor Swift fan to appear more romantic, decent, and attractive on dating apps or in real life.
Mostly men are writing things in their dating app profiles like “Not not down for T. Swift concert.”
And writing their favorite songs are: “All Too Well,” “The Archer,” and “Enchanted”, for example…
According to Tinder, the number of U.S. users talking about Taylor Swift on their profiles has grown 44% since February. For that same pool of users, mentions of the “Eras Tour” and “Swiftie” peaked in August, right around the time Swift was wrapping up the U.S. leg of her tour.
Now, single Swifties are taking note of the Taylor love — and how often their matches turned out to be FAKING IT!!!
Guys appear to be playing the odds here. They have deduced that a lot of women today…and Taylor Swift fans…therefore if they mention Taylor in their profile they will get a lot more matches.
So, don’t fall for the trap ladies!
