    Probably not by design, but it winds up being that way de facto. How many women do you know who would actually use an app like that? Sure, a few probably, but not many. Men, on the other hand, will flock to it.


     


    With so few women using it, straight men don't make many hook-ups and stop using it. Men looking for other men are much more successful and continue with it. Eventually they're the only ones left using it.

    The invitation should be to "date" not to "bang". Most people would find it tantalizing to find out a friend has a mutual interest in dating. If two people secretly want to date and they want to have sex, it will happen.
    My guess is that most women will be turned off by expressly requesting to "bang," even if she really wants to bang. It is no wonder these guys are trying to make an app to get sex. Their lack of women skills is all too obvious.

    Then explain the number of women using the app before it was pulled.


     


    I think BWF can be web based. It'll save them time circumventing the prudes, and get it back up in time for summer (you know what that means) ^^

    Kids have been suspended for making finger guns, rubber band guns (I think), play-doh guns, etc.

    They'll punish the kid getting frustrated and screaming something remotely threatening at a bully but then let bullies bully.

    Makes no sense.

    I'm glad Apple banned this app because we can't be having porn apps in the app store, its inappropriate.

    Were you being sarcastic or did you really mean that? If the latter, did you read the article? It's not a porn app. It's a social app that arranges hookups. There is not danger of innocent sensibilities being sullied by accidental exposure to portrayals of human husbandry.

    Well it's a clever idea...  But honestly, how many women did the developers think they'd get to go around marking all of their male FB friends that they'd like to secretly bang..    Gays on the other hand.. :)

    Yes, because all gay people do is f**k and think about who they're going to f**k next. :rolleyes: Prejudiced much or just a prick?

    If the Apple Store can have Grinder, Recon, Jacked etc... Gay sex hook up apps why not one that includes straight people.

    OMG they're using the word "Bang". OMG just thinking of sex is so evil. Why don't we just eliminate sexuality and add more weapons and killing and gore? Oh, wait... we already have that in games and movies. As long as the youth can shoot and kill in games for hours on their phone and watch it in movies, then we're good. Just as long as we don't hear about or see any "boobies" (can't say "breasts" here)..... Unbelievable.

    Well tried their replace (Down app) and also tried Bang With Friend, Swoon, Tinder and 5 others and always go back to http://onenightstand1.com/sexdating-sites/ which is simple user rated list of new and alternative sites for fast hookups because that is only 'thing' that works all the time and all apps come and go.
