New "Tea App" Sparks Debate on Women's Safety and Dating Accountability A new application, dubbed the "Tea App," is generating significant discussion online for its unique approach to women's safety in dating. The app, which requires users to verify their gender as female through a selfie, allows women to anonymously share information and background checks on men they have dated or encountered. One user, Azalia, shared her perspective on the app, highlighting the perceived necessity of such a tool. "I see men freaking out today about that Tea App that I guess has been released," she stated in a recent video. She explained that the app enables women to "anonymously write stuff about men that you've dated or gone on dates with and their bad behavior." Addressing concerns about the ethics of digging into personal information, Azalia argued, "Women's safety is basically never taken seriously." She referenced a past trend where women shared voicemails and text messages containing derogatory remarks from men, noting that many men claimed not to know anyone who would behave that way. "The reality of it is is, these are your friends, these are your uncles, these are your cousins, these are your brothers," she asserted. Azalia further emphasized the safety risks women face when meeting unknown men. While acknowledging that men could also desire similar background checks, she stated, "I wouldn't be against them wanting to look up if, you know, women have a criminal record or whatever." However, she differentiated the potential use, suggesting that a male equivalent app would likely focus on trivial complaints rather than serious behavioral issues. Concluding her argument, Azalia challenged those criticizing the app: "Maybe just don't be a piece of shit to women, or maybe don't commit crimes against women, and there would be no reason for you to be on the app." She expressed satisfaction that at least "somebody" is taking violence against women seriously.
