‘She unmatched me a day later, what did I do wrong?’
Tinder exchange of the day is surely this, a friendly to-and-fro which took an unexpectedly highbrow turn.
Ooof. And some of the replies made it even funnier.
‘She probably knows that height is a polygenic trait and that your approach wouldn’t work.
‘Also genetics isn’t the only determinant of height as environmental factors are at play too.’
MINT-LORD-TU9‘That’d be my take. Genetic recombination as well, we ain’t pea plants. Absolutely barbaric.’
Ashen-wolf‘She blocked you because there is no single “height gene”. It’s the sum total of many different alleles across these genes.
‘That’s obviously why she unmatched 🧑🏻🎓.’

‘Perfect opportunity to drop a “only one way to find out” or something stupid like that …’
ohmanitsharry‘Best answer.’
RockSciRetired‘They technically did say that, but with a “…with math” at the end of it.’
MaxTheRealSlayer
To conclude …
‘Guess we’ll never know what height the kids will be now.’
