The app gives the ladies the final say in who to date. 

Like Tinder, you will go through profiles, and instead of swiping, the woman will be able to ask a question to any man she fancies, if she likes the response, she will be the one unlocking the match and they can begin dating.

The men on this app have to wait until a woman approaches them first, once the lady has approached you, you will have 24 hours before the match expires.
