Something i noticed about tinder statistics

NockerJoe · 2022-08-17T17:56:03+00:00

Most of the places men look for women are generally male dominated. You can see how bad it is on OLD but theres a reason most men will say their favorite establishments are male dominated, girls pay like half the cover charge or none at all to get into most big events I've been to, and why most advice to men is to essentially go to places that don't interest them but have women and pretend they like that shit.

The number one challenge for any mixed venue has always been getting women to go. Hence why again, they generally have lower cover charges and more advertising and a lot of stuff their male counterparts don't get. The flip side is(off the top of my head from a study I only kinda remember) like a third of men will go someplace specifically to meet women and men will usually spend way more than women while out. Which is why there are plenty of gay bars but you regularly hear about lesbian bars shutting down.

Obviously there are venues and events that lean female but again, they usually have the opposite issue in that the average man doesn't actually want to be there or isn't really interested, but thats a whole other business and behavior model.

You misunderstand basic statistics. It may be flawed, but NOT because it's 75-25 male to female. 25% of whatever the user base of Tinder is, is still a colossally large sample size. But just like the men, those women may not be representative of the population. But we assume they are.
"if women literally had no standards only %25 of men could actually get matches" No. Again basic math problem. It would be 33.33% of men. If the total size is 100, there are 25 women and 75 men. 25, or one-third of the men, would get a match in that scenario.

SadPatient28 · 2022-08-17T20:22:47+00:00

i would guess that 10% of those 25% female profiles are real....

and yet, women always tell me, "just go on tinder if you want to hook up."

see what i mean?

bunniesaresweet · 2022-08-17T20:03:59+00:00

Not me and any of my friends (20sF) have used tinder. We think of tinder as meant for hooking up (vs dating) which none of us were interested in. We all used hinge or bumble. I think those apps have a lot more women in them and is a more accurate representation of women

Flightlessbirbz · 2022-08-17T21:32:29+00:00

Yes, yes it is flawed. Furthermore, there’s a good chance that many of those 25% female profiles are bots, so the real percentage may be even less. Overall, women just do not like Tinder and don’t use it. It’s not so much that all these women are going for only the top 20% of men on these apps, it’s more that only 20% of the user base is female, so obviously most men won’t get many matches.

The same principle applies to casual sex in general. When significantly more men than women are pursing casual sex, it’s going to be more difficult for men to obtain, and women will have more options. It’s not that 100% of women are hooking up with 20% of men. It’s more like only <20% of women are pursuing hookups with any regularity. This might seem inconsequential, but it really changes the whole picture. I know if I were a guy, I’d feel better knowing how unbalanced the numbers are.

Super-Peoplez-S0Lt · 2022-08-17T22:20:37+00:00

This isn’t a ground breaking discovery. Men outnumbering women on many OLD apps is already common knowledge.

Play_Muted · 2022-08-17T17:33:37+00:00

someone doesnt know math.

only 25% of men wouldnt get matches 1/3 guys would get matches and thats 33.3333...%

and tinder has less females because they get whatever they want in couple of days meanwhiles most guys have to swipe for months till they get something but if you look at account creation traffick the numbers are really close.

KirthWGersen · 2022-08-17T17:26:24+00:00

If those women had no standards, they would simply be shagging all the men and be very tired.

It's a delicate balance though: while their physical fitness could increase, all those drinks and meals could lead to obesity.

geyges1 · 2022-08-17T17:23:06+00:00

Yeah bro, exactly.

Red pillers scream about shit because they don't know math and science and they definitely don't know shit about culture and sociology lol. They're mostly just dudes with edgelord personalities, the guys that play devils advocate for every situation and then act surprised when people don't like them.

Mobrowncheeks · 2022-08-17T17:44:15+00:00

Every women gets to swipe like 100 times a day
It doesn’t really matter because those 25% of women get to swipe through and match or not match multiple men at once. It’s not like they only stop at one match.

If anything. It just means the sample size is very small for women’s behavors.

AcanthocephalaNew947 · 2022-08-17T17:18:06+00:00

Shhhhhh.

Logic doesn’t help the narrative.

Kentucky_Supreme · 2022-08-17T18:18:32+00:00

Except women don't care about the man/woman ratio. All they're thinking is "hot or not".

If you took away the top 25% of men, the women would probably just delete the app.

AnUnstableNucleus · 2022-08-17T19:35:56+00:00

So isn't it flawed to use tinder data pool as what women desire? Most women aren't on tinder to begin with

Yes, but it affirms the red pill worldview, so it's taken as the gospel here.

caption291 · 2022-08-17T20:14:02+00:00

The gender ratio of tinder is %75 men %25 women, what this means is that even if women literally had no standards only %25 of men could actually get matches or dates/sex from it

If women had lower standards, fewer men would need to be on tinder/more women would find tinder to be an attractive option.

The ratio itself is in large part a function of the standards of each gender...so separating the ratio from women's standards allows you to separate women's standards from their consequences which is obviously not a reasonable thing to do but is certainly a sneaky way to push a narrative.

BennyHillThemeStops · 2022-08-17T21:14:13+00:00

Men are more focused on trying to get laid than women, so there are more guys on tinder to begin with.

There are more single men than women because women can end up in a fwb situationship, whether knowingly or unknowingly, sharing the same guy.

Women are also more likely to get fed up with guys and just give up on them either for a while or permanently. They go on 'tinder detoxes'.

For women who do use tinder and other apps, they dip in, delete the app once they've found what they're looking for after choosing from the many options.

The top tier men will get multiple dates. The bottom tier men will get none. Men stay on the apps for longer periods of time regardless.

Tinder stats reflect that women are only attracted to certain percentage of men based on their pictures alone.

RinoaRita · 2022-08-17T23:56:08+00:00

That’s assuming that 25% of women doesn’t include a significant percent of bots/advertising for OF/snap etc.

But technically if it’s actually 75% men and 25% women it’d be 33% of men that gets a March.

Gundam_net · 2022-08-18T09:00:41+00:00

Big brained post.

huhwhatokok · 2022-08-17T17:35:47+00:00

I won’t deny there’s more men than women on OLD, but women get a bunch of matches and latch on to one Chad before deleting OLD. Meanwhile, a lot of men will still be on it if they’re married, in a relationship, or have a 5 woman rotation. I’d probably say it’s closer to 55%-60% men to 40% - 45% women.

CrossdressTimelady · 2022-08-18T00:12:10+00:00

Here's some easy tips:

--Get in shape

--Learn how to dance

--Get Victorian-inspired costumes custom tailored

--Go to formal dances, especially if they're Victorian-themed.

TRUST ME, the ratio of men to women favors the men like you wouldn't believe, and the women will go for anyone who's good looking and knows basic dance moves.

Cobra_x30 · 2022-08-17T17:47:09+00:00

This is highly misleading. When you look at stats like 60% of the female population under 40 has used Tinder at some point.... then note that only 25% of active users are female at any given time.

What this means is that the majority of women use Tinder, but then stop.... while men will actively use it for much longer periods of time.

kokorwqac · 2022-08-17T19:52:21+00:00

Tinder is based on Grindr, that is specific designed to cater to gay men's needs.

No shit not many women use it.

BitsAndBobs304 · 2022-08-17T18:27:13+00:00

Uhm... my sweet summer child.. you do understand that women are not sent to jupiter via rocket one way only once they swipe right on the first man, yes?

AelfredRex · 2022-08-18T01:14:26+00:00

Yeah, but then the red/black pillers can't use that to claim victim status. All the "stats" they root around the net for and then shove in everyone's faces have that purpose in mind.

ScrimmyBingusTwo · 2022-08-17T17:29:09+00:00

That’s because women will leave Tinder sooner because they can quickly find a relationship there. It’s not that most women aren’t using dating apps, its simply that they don’t need to use them as long.

downvotesanimals · 2022-08-17T22:18:39+00:00

Women are allowed to have more than 1 match...

What you're saying is statistically true. But then you state it's flawed to use the data to understand "desire". Two different things there. What you said about the statistical reality of the app can true. It can also be true that putting a buffet of men in front of a small amount of women results in them only wanting a small % of the men.

If the notion women primarily cared about personality or anything other arcane and highly subjective traits, you wouldn't be able to predict a mans success based off of what he looked like. The men getting responses on the apps would be more varied. That's what RP people are arguing.

StopTheIncels · 2022-08-17T19:03:58+00:00

Not necessarily. They closed their public API years ago.

If the total RAW data was available, I'd wager there would be some interesting things.

cvslengthbucketlist · 2022-08-17T19:41:37+00:00

If the sample size of women on dating apps is big enough then it doesn't have to match the entire population of women to notice any correlations. But I think the qualitative factors are more meaningful here. I'd be more concerned about the type of women who self-select into the online dating pool and how that corresponds to their dating choices. Or I would look first at the nature of the online platform itself and how it brings out low-attention span behavior and the paradox of choice (even with gender ratio parity) generally speaking.

beleidigtewurst · 2022-08-17T19:42:46+00:00

The gender ratio of tinder is %75 men %25 women, what this means is that even if women literally had no standards only %25 of men could actually get matches or dates/sex from it

Well, or bang-bang 3 times as often. But yeah, purely theoretical.

This talk about "standards" is highly misleading, it is about men being more horny, not more nor less. Women could get there when drunk (and regret it in the morning with some serious consequences)

Pinkrose571 · 2022-08-17T20:39:46+00:00

I mst my bf on a dating app it's a sad story

EveryNizastar · 2022-08-17T21:04:12+00:00

Ok how about other apps with more women ( bumble, hinge ) ? Are they less picky on there ?

Vainistopheles · 2022-08-17T21:32:54+00:00

if women literally had no standards only %25 of men could actually get matches or dates/sex from it

That would only be true if women dated exactly one man at a time and never broke up.

danielatsb · 2022-08-17T22:36:37+00:00

Only 2/3rds of men could get matches. Learn math.

Holiday-Reach-8948 · 2022-08-17T22:57:24+00:00

Just curious - do people use Tinder primarily for hookups, or dates that may turn into relationships? Or does it vary?

kvakerok · 2022-08-18T00:13:54+00:00

You are correct in identifying selection bias of Tinder. That said I think it simply points to the fact that Tinder is primarily for hookups and men are primarily into hookups. Which is consequently invalidates the claim about 25% of men's matches, as one woman can hookup with a multitude of men.

dabadeedabadaiguy · 2022-08-18T01:18:48+00:00

Women are out in the real world making the most of their lives while men are too lazy to do anything but swipe. Men need to do better.

Decent_Foundation_62 · 2022-08-18T02:42:52+00:00

Women match alot faster and more frequently on tinder, it would be more useful to compare these stats over time. (i.e., is it 75% - 25% because 65% of men are always on there whereas the 25% of women are turning over frequently

HimNeutron · 2022-08-18T04:16:20+00:00

They can match with any number of men, and given this day and age, hook up with more than 25% as well (as a collective). The goal may not be to find one person for everyone on that app.

AnotherWildling · 2022-08-18T05:39:03+00:00

Unless, god forbid, women were more promiscuous than men…

truthfullyVivid · 2022-08-18T06:59:39+00:00

YES thank you. It was already pretty farcical that data exclusively applying to the OLD sphere was being applied as a blanket generalization about dating as a whole-- but the fact that these variables are completely ignored in this faux-scientific approach to understanding dating only makes it more laughable.

MasterTeacher123 · 2022-08-24T11:38:14+00:00

I ate well on Tinder from 2012-2016
