Gender ratios on the apps

[Anonymous]

From what I've read, the male:female gender ratio on most dating apps is at least 3:1 and in many cases multiple times that. Seems weird because almost everyone I know, man or woman, is on the apps and yet the gender ratio still seems very skewed. Most of the women I've talked to say they are very picky and swipe right on 1-5% of the men they see, while most guys including myself get few if any matches (except for one really good looking guy I know). Why is the gender ratio on dating apps so imbalanced?

First, you might be on the wrong apps.

The ratio of men to women is almost 1:1 on Bumble and Match. Look for apps that focus on relationship-focused dating, as opposed to causal dating. Unless you are a really good-looking man, you will have trouble on casual dating sites.

Next, be ruthless in analyzing why your profile is not getting more hits. Get (female) friends to review it (including your photos). Ask women you matched with what they liked about your profile (which is also a nice way to find out what they are interested in learning about you.)

Be willing to spend the money to move up the highest level of service (think BumblePlus or BumbleSuperSwipe). Your profile will place higher in searches, and you can even ask for coaching on it.

Finally, when you get matches, have something to say. The worst (for either gender) is when your match replies with "Hi", "Hey", or "How are you". There are a number of very well-written books on how to help you OLD. Read them and grow strong.

Liar.

Ogury's study found a massive gender imbalance amongst dating app users. The men and women gender ratio on Tinder is almost nine to one, while even the "female-friendly" apps like Bumble have fewer than 20% of Bumble users, which indicates the men to women rate's seven to three.

It’s simple - men are more desperate these days than women.

I’m not. I swipe left on 95% of the women the apps show me.

Men are more likely to be on a dating app even if in a relationship?

Online dating is lower risk for men. Look at any “funny” article about how men behave on online dating sites and you’ll see why many women don’t use them. Also, the stakes are higher for men given the benefits of marriage on mens health whereas women live longer if they stay single.

What’s the reason for men living longer when married though? Without an explanation we don’t know if it’s correlation vs causation. It could easily be a case of healthier men working lower risk white collar jobs being more desirable marriage partners than less healthy men who work more dangerous, lower paying blue collar jobs.

See this just shows you do not understand how it works. About 10% of men will hit anything and they are on their apps 24/7. These men account for 90% of the responses on any site. They are just trolling for anything. They have no standards. It’s makes women feel wanted but in reality these guys are just looking for a pump and dump.

If only 10% of these men are desperate and they represent 75% of male app users, the rest of the 90% are fresh out of luck then…

Men are hornier. They are looking to bang.

It is correlation. Desirable men will live longer even if not married.
