So... yeah. If you don't know what this is, it's basically an app that allows women to anonymously rate guys she's dated through his facebook account. Now I'm no MRA or anything on the contrary really, but let's face it, if it were the opposite feminists would be extremely loud about it and don't get me wrong, they'd be right to protest against it, but I'm not seeing enough feminist protesting against this (so far only one). So yeah what do you think of this app? I hear they're already making a version for men and that's just gonna fuck things up even more. |

Why does the digital age have to have 40,000 fucking stupid and disgusting things for every 1 good thing. This is terrible. |

So what? There are a million rate this girl/guy sites. If anyone goes by the rating given then they sure as hell ain't worth the time. |

I said there are a million rate this girl/guy, I didn't say anything about the app. And again, anyone following the advice from an app is probably an ignorant individual. |

Definitely not the dumbest thing I've seen come out of social networking. Also, what Roge said. |

Yeah but this one isn't random people rating. You need to have the person as your fb friend, it's something much more personal and can (and probably will) lead to bullying and shit. |

Yea, just takes like one jealous/angry/whatever girlfriend to on and start saying bullshit about someone. He isn't notified about this shit. Same thing with the "male version" or whatever. Its bullshit. |

most definitely will lead to bullying. I think its bullshit. Just another way for girls to belittle us after a break up. I rarely hear guys bitch after a break up. Usually its the girl thats all "small dick, ugly, had no money, blah blah blah" This is only another way for them to do it anonymously and publicly. |

Bullying? You're seriously stretching out for anything to knock down this app. Cyber bullying is real, but how does the guy get bullied if he isn't aware of the app? I downloaded the app, looked around, its just girls being bitches and saying shit cause they're angry or something along those lines. Also, if the relationship ended on a good note for the two to still be friends in facebook why would she write a bad review? Again, its just girls being bitches. I wouldn't take anything in this app serious. |

Yeah only anonymous and you can't block, report or know who's saying. @Roger what? Nothing in this post makes any sense. The fact that he doesn't get access to what he's being insulted means it's not really bullying? Or wait, what if he does find out? What if it's an insecure high school kid whose relationship didn't end in a good note? What if it's a secure adult who just doesn't want his personal stuff being published against his will? You say cyber bullying is real, but when it's made anonymous and about a person's sex life then it isn't? |

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/cyberbullying http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/bullying So why would they still be friends on facebook? Also, it isn't bullying, its cyberbullying is the word you're looking for. This only happens as long facebook isn't aware of this. So this does bug you, why haven't you shoot them an email? |

Not having a FB is looking like the better and better option. But this app? I only see it causing issues. Girls have been known to spread crap about ex's, especially if it ended on a sour note. Not saying guys don't just I see it a lot more with the ladies. As Freeman said, surprised att he lack of response against it. |

The internet is anonymous, people will say shit either way. Blocking wouldn't do much seeing as the things being posted are about someone, and not to them. Just doesn't strike me as anything more than an anonymous facebook gossip app. I could honestly see more damage being done still through fb itself. |

Sounds pretty ridiculous but I have to agree with CMAX, for the few good things that we seem to get from apps and the likes there seems to be hundreds of negative things. Like when I signed up to Snapchat the other week I saw that there was about 6 different apps which let you save images people sent you before you opened them, including videos. Not weird at all eh? |
