I was playing around with OLD mainly out of boredom. Anyway, one thing which frustrated me is how "similar" men on OLD platforms are. A disproportionate number of men I came across on OLD portray themselves with these traits:

  • Extroverted

  • Tall

  • Likes sports, especially extreme sports such as water skiing

  • Has abs

  • Has a white-collared job which pays very well such as being a doctor, lawyer, or an engineer

  • Owns a nice car with some being super expensive

  • Is multicultural due to having lived and traveled abroad or being mixed-race

  • Loves partying and drinking

I don't know how to say this but I feel like many men on OLD are trying to portray themselves as what they believe women universally like. Yes, some women are into men with the traits I've listed above, but our tastes of men are actually more diverse despite how scrotes rant about us only being into "rich and tall chads".

As an introvert, I like nerdy, introverted guys. Nope, I don't mean nerds addicted to playing video games all day but I like those who are intelligent and share the same intellectual interests with me. I'm actually not that into tall, muscular men and prefer men who are somewhat taller than me (as it will be easier for us to kiss) with a lean body. I also have little interest in dating a guy who is much wealthier than me due to incompatibility.

Yes, OLD gives people the impression that there's plenty of fish out there, but I feel like I can't find the type of guy I am looking for on OLD even if you ignore the fact that most men on OLD are LV. It seems like all these men are obsessed with portraying themselves in the way they believe all women like.

Edit: Thanks for the award!
