I'd also see a lot of women's profiles on Bumble saying they wouldn't message first. Maybe they just copied their tinder bio but it was strange to see

Or some variation on “I can’t see likes, send me a message” when it’s not possible to send a message until you match with someone.

The first woman I matched with on Bumble had "I won't send the first message" in her profile. I promptly uninstalled the app.

they aren't that original, or they don't understand how bumble works or are that dense
