Computer-Mediated Consent to Sex: The Context of Tinder

Computer-Mediated Consent to Sex: The Context of Tinder Douglas Zytko, Nicholas Furlo, Bailey Carlin, Matt Archer CSCW'21: ACM Conference on Computer-Supported Cooperative Work and Social Computing Session: Connecting and Reaching Out Abstract This paper reports an interview study about how consent to sexual activity is computer-mediated. The study’s context of online dating is chosen due to the prevalence of sexual violence, or nonconsensual sexual activity, that is associated with dating app-use. Participants (n=19) represent a range of gender identities and sexual orientations, and predominantly used the dating app Tinder. Findings reveal two computer-mediated consent processes: consent signaling and affirmative consent. With consent signaling, users employed Tinder’s interface to infer and imply agreement to sex without any explicit confirmation before making sexual advances in-person. With affirmative consent, users employed the interface to establish patterns of overt discourse around sex and consent across online and offline modalities. The paper elucidates shortcomings of both computer-mediated consent processes that leave users susceptible to sexual violence, and envisions dating apps as potential sexual violence prevention solutions if deliberately designed to mediate consent exchange.
