みなさん、こんにちは。
SAKURA TIPSは、日本語リスニングのPodcastです。

————————–

今日のテーマは、マッチングアプリについてです。

日本にはたくさんのマッチングアプリがあります。
マッチングアプリは、英語でいうDating Appです。
海外で1番有名なのは、Tinderでしょうか?
もちろん日本でもTinderを使っている人は多いです。

日本で1番有名なマッチングアプリは、たぶんペアーズというアプリだと思います。
私もだいぶ前に一度使ったことがあります。
まぁかなり前なので、今は色々と機能とか変わっていると思います。

しかし、私が使っていたときの感想というか、コメントをちょっと皆さんに伝えたいと思います。
まず、ペアーズは基本的に日本語です。
なので、日本人以外の人ももちろんいますが、日本語ができたほうがいいと思います。
あと、今はもうないと思うのですが、私が使っていた頃は、男性と女性で質問が異なっていました。
アピールポイントを書く欄があるんですが、男性は、「家事手伝います」という項目がありました。
私はそれを見て、「家事手伝うってなんだよ」と思いました。
「手伝う」じゃなくて「やれよ」と。
なんかもう、手伝うって言っている時点で、家事は女性がするものだという感覚がその人にはあるんだなと思って、私はそういう人は左スワイプをしていました。
今は、ないと思います。さすがにね。
あと年収を書く欄があります。
たぶん海外のアプリとは結構違うと思います。
皆さんの国のマッチングアプリはどうですか?

Hello, everyone.
SAKURA TIPS is a Japanese listening Podcast.

————————–

Today’s theme is about matching apps.

There are many matching apps in Japan.
Matching apps are called “dating apps” in English.
The most famous one overseas is Tinder, right?
Of course, there are many people who use Tinder in Japan as well.

I think the most famous matching app in Japan is probably Pairs.
I’ve used it once before, a long time ago.
Well, it was a long time ago, so I’m sure a lot of the features have changed now.

However, I would like to share with you my impressions and comments from my time using it.
First of all, Pairs is basically in Japanese.
So, of course there are non-Japanese people, but I think it’s better to be able to speak Japanese.
Also, I don’t think it’s available anymore, but when I was using Pairs, there were different questions for men and women.
There was a section to write down your appeal points, and for men, there was a section that said “I help with housework”.
When I saw that, I thought, “What do you mean ‘HELP’ with housework?
I thought, “Do” housework, not “Help” with housework.
I used to swipe left on people like that, because I thought that when they said “help”, they had the sense that women should do housework basically.

Now, I think there is no option like that.
Also, there is a column to write your annual income.
I think it’s probably quite different from apps in other countries.
How is the matching app in your country?
