Twitter reacts to Toffee, the dating app you can only join if you went to private school

Creator Lydia Davis says dating service for the privately educated is ‘not about snobbery’

Toffee Dating

Want to get into the dating scene, but put off by the thought of mingling with the state-educated? Toffee Dating, a new dating app open only to those who attended private schools, believes it has the answer.

Unsurprisingly, the app is “tailored to people on the posher end of the spectrum”, says its creator, Lydia Davis. “Users are asked to answer questions about the society events they attend (Henley or SW4?), the sports they prefer (polo or rugby?) and how they divide their time between the town and the country.”
