I Selected the Wrong Gender on OkCupid and Now I Can’t Fix My Profile Settings

I accidentally selected the wrong gender preference on OkCupid, and now I’m constantly shown matches that don’t align with my orientation. I’m a straight man, but the app keeps showing me profiles of women interested in women or other irrelevant suggestions. I tried to change my gender and preferences, but the toggle won’t save, and the app refuses to update my profile.

There’s no option to correct this mistake, no accessible support email, and no clear way to fix this through the app itself. It’s incredibly frustrating and forces users like me to delete the app entirely just to escape this error.

OkCupid, please update your platform to allow users to easily correct their gender and orientation settings. This is not only a basic functionality issue but also creates unnecessary stress. I’m asking for immediate support to fix my account preferences properly.
