When you think of the last person you matched with on Tinder, you probably picture them with a beach in the background or a cat in their lap—or in whichever setting they deemed worthy for their profile picture. But that's probably not what they looked like while swiping. Actually, according to a survey by MiMedia, there's a solid chance they logged on from the toilet. In fact, people are doing all sorts of weird stuff on their phones in the bathroom.
The cloud service asked 1,000 people about their digital habits in the loo, and a whopping 69 percent copped to having used their smartphones there. More than half of respondents said they check social media while doing their business, one quarter said they play games, and another quarter said they watch videos and movies.
Going on dating apps was also a popular bathroom activity, with 8 percent of respondents admitting to having done it. That's almost one in 10 people! Eighty-three percent of the people who said they Tindered while doing their business were men, and for whatever reason, guys said they were more prone to swiping right in this setting. Perhaps it's hard to be discriminating when you're, uh, distracted?
Believe it or not, that wasn't actually the weirdest finding. The strangest statistic to come out of the survey: Twelve percent of people watch porn on the toilet. Because who says you can't take care of two needs at once?
