Women using the Tinder dating app are getting what they want from men - and it's not necessarily fancy dinners or one-night stands. 
 
使用约会软件Tinder的女性们现在从男性那儿得到她们想要的东西，而这并不一定是丰盛的晚餐或一夜情。
 
Rather than seeking the perfect partner, a growing number of women are said to be 'swiping right' to find a man to do their household chores and DIY. 
 
Tinder users have told how they use the App to find men to fit air conditioners, shovel1 snow and move furniture - all with no strings2 attached.
 
Disillusioned3 by her efforts to find a suitable date on Tinder, one user, Fiona Bloom, 47, decided4 to try another tack5. 
 
'I've tried speed dating and all the dating Apps, but every time I put my real age, all I get are idiots and losers,' she told the New York Post.'I figured, why not make them useful and have them help me around the house?' 
 
She found a match with a man wearing overalls6 and wielding7 a hammer in his profile photo and invited him over to install her air conditioning. 
 
'I wasn't attracted to him, but he was very forthcoming,' she explained. 
 
After he successfully carried out the installation, Bloom asked him to leave and didn't answer his messages asking her to go on a proper date. 
 
'Men are hard-wired to feel strong and be a provider, she told the New York Post. 'I don't feel guilty using them for a little help.'
