Summary | Blood donation criteria have loosened up for the first time in decades. Now men engaging in homosexual encounters are no longer banned for life from donating blood, they just have to wait a year after any "risky sexual contacts" to donate blood. This affects the entire "generation tinder" because all people with more than a total of two sexual partners in their lifetime were banned from donatig blood.

Some see it as a symptom of our over-saturation with choices in all aspects of life. The more choices there are, the more content one becomes with ones choices. This also plays into the fascination with Tinder and other online dating platforms. There are so many options that we are never satisfied.
