Is this site meant to be partly a dating site?

In my profile, it seems there is a lot of options (I ignored) that lead to it being about things for dating.

I’ve never believed that was its intention but connections are sometimes made that go beyond friendships.

@Pinkstarburst I am all for people making a connection of hearts, but some of the options on the lists seem aimed at getting people together.
@SW-User All of the groups carried over from EP. There, people created the groups.

@Pinkstarburst I don't know much about EP.
@SW-User It was a place much like here. There was more posting of thoughts and writing. It was created by a man whose sister(?) struggled with an illness and he didn’t want her to feel alone in it. He created it to provide a place for people to share their experiences with each other as a community.

@Pinkstarburst Thank you for explaining. So, it has evolved quite a bit since I can't see the mature adult content being what he'd add for his sister?
@SW-User After people started creating groups, the pervs started appearing. Fortunately we can weed them out with filters and blocks.

@Pinkstarburst I'm still learning, but think for now... I'll just watch and see how things go. Do people create their own groups?
@SW-User No. We can’t do it on SW. I personally think that’s a good thing.
SW-User
@Pinkstarburst I agree. lol
