Guy Jokingly Uses A Gender-Swap Snapchat Photo On Tinder—And Is Caught Off Guard By The Reaction From Other Men

Guy Jokingly Uses A Gender-Swap Snapchat Photo On Tinder—And Is Caught Off Guard By The Reaction From Other Men

That new SnapChat filter where you can create an exaggerated version of yourself in either gender filter is really fun but also slightly unsettling.

One man learned that the hard way when he put it on his Tinder profile.


Troy Sey from Los Angeles, California, posted his alter-ego, "Tracy."

Tracy got lots of interest from other dudes.


Here is Troy:


Tracy is extremely pretty, even though she isn't real.

Sey was looking to see if the responses to his profile would be different, and by gum, they were.

Sey got over 100 swipes in 20 minutes.

Despite a warning: "Compliment me for a surprise ;)" men continued to send messages to the not-so-real Tracy.





"I honestly thought it was obvious that I was a guy using the gender-swap filter, but to my surprise, I got so many genuine compliments," Sey said.

"I've learned that if you put a bio up on Tinder like I did, guys will ignore all red flags for some potential 'surprises.'"

And they must have gotten the surprise they were promised.






He says reactions to the truth about who he is were.... mixed.







Some people jumped to messaging him directly.

"Damn u look good tho," said one of "Tracy's" potential suitors. "Must be a handsome fella."




Sey said that Tracy's world is very different from his own on apps.

"I could get someone to swipe right on me maybe a few times a week — at most."

But he is now way over the 100 mark and the messages feel unsettling.

"I always knew it was happening," he said. "But it's pretty eye-opening experiencing firsthand."

Gavin Newsom Hilariously Trolls Trump For Struggling To Stay Awake During Antifa Roundtable

California Governor Gavin Newsom mocked President Donald Trump for appearing to fall asleep during a White House roundtable about Antifa, which the administration recently designated a "domestic terror organization" even though it's not an organization at all.

Antifa is a loose network of anti-fascist activists with no central structure, no funding, no membership roster, and no offices or leadership hierarchy for prosecutors to target.

Remote Worker Speaks Out After Job Uses 'Dystopian' Software To Track His Productivity

There are a few vital truths to every office-based job. First, there are going to be "busy work" moments, from meetings to admin tasks to minor side-quest-style projects that add to the company in some small way but otherwise feel like a waste of time.

Second, as human beings, we all need breaks to restore our mental focus, so a person who occasionally scrolls through their personal email, sends a few texts to a friend, or even scrolls Instagram for a few minutes, will likely be more productive than those who attempt to lock in and do nothing but their job throughout their entire shift.
