Ok This is REALLY wierd

SO I am trying to make some new facebook ads and the weirdest thing is happening... I have no "interested in" option!

heres a screen shot of an ad I tried to make using the "create a similar ad" button



this ad is for france... for one of my german ads however, this is what I get:



Now this is the really wierd part... When I try to "create a similar ad" for the germany ad, the the "interested in" option goes away the second I change the country to france.

Am I an idiot and missing something completely?

FB took away that targeting option a while ago. Its something to do with some countries how you can't target what sex they are interested in.

They took this option away for France cause there was an uproar about some privacy issues back in the day.

As far as I know, its exclusively for France.

I'm pretty sure 403flux is right that it only affects France. I tried to run some dating there back in the day and kept getting disapproved for not selecting an "interested in" option and when I emailed them with a screenshot showing there wasn't one, they told me it was for legal reasons in that country. Then I asked how to get my ad approved and a different person responded saying "Select an interested in option and resubmit."

Now you can see why I tend to steer clear of FB when possible.
