Why do men far outweigh women on dating sites?

Such a normie comment. The type of guy you're talking about is like 10% of guys on OLD; most guys just want to find a girl to date, get to know. The problem is most girls are rejecting them in favour of the guys you describe. These guys pump and dump because they can.

So true, the men only care about sex type of guys, they can be your normie male or the soyboy's who believe themselves to be a higher form of male. ''Men think about sex every 5 minutes lol haha we're such dirty dogs har har.'' Speak for yourself you swine!

Yes, I used to be on a site around ten years ago where men had to pay to join but it was free for women.

That's not a fair comparison though. The fair comparison to make would be average looking female vs average looking male.

In terms of dates the average looking female will get more dates or matches imo. They will find someone desirable to them quicker. Then by extension these females may delete the apps quicker as they have found someone.

However, above average looking men aren't as content when it comes to dating. These men probably will not delete the apps as quick even if seeing someone fairly regularly.

Needless to say, dating apps are quite flawed ways of meeting someone.

It's no different to any night club more men than women looking for the ride

there's some stat and sound explanation that explains this....10% of dudes do 90% of the shagging.

tis something that follows on from this that i cant remember but explains it

No - because there are a lot of men who just want casual sex and not a relationship. So getting lots of dates doesn’t mean lots of relationships follow. Whereas for guys, usually when he is going on a date the woman tends to want a relationship, so if he wants one he is sorted (and they like each other obvs)

100%. Now - the only time that doesn’t follow is if he only wants to date somebody with super model looks....

What's a normie male or soyboy?

You're def not wrong, sadly

So you said men on these sites are shallow bastards looking to take advantage of the innocent ladies who will fall for their lies and be heartbroken when he shags them and then vanishes.

And then you say you know nothing about online dating.

Oh and FYI most women like a shag now and again as well and quite a few of them are on the sites looking for some no strings fun same as the lads.

Man's bravery😁😁

Kind of sounds better don't you think? Bit like calling the Mandalorian 'Mando'

If 'bohe' suddenly appeared as a slang term people mightn't be sure how to pronounce it...

How many Hollywood romcoms have been made that start off with the guy just wanting the ride … but then realising that there is more going on? It’s practically a cliché. Look at Pretty Woman, which features a very rich man (Richard Gere) hiring a prostitute (Julia Roberts), but then what happens? He’s immediately impressed by her ability to drive a stick shift sports car (America, eh?) and then by her attitude and how well she “cleans up”. This is a guy who can literally buy any ride he wants, so how does he end up wanting more from her? Because she has more to offer and refuses to take any crap from him.

Two Weeks Notice? Rich guy (Hugh Grant) doesn’t impress an activist lawyer (Sandra Bullock). Sandra came at it from the other direction in Miss Congeniality, where the guy already liked her for her abilities but she had to lighten up and be open to the possibility. Maid In Manhattan? Jennifer Lopez as a hotel maid who wins over Ralph Fiennes. When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless In Seattle, and all those Nora Ephron scripts. There’s a pattern here, whether the scripts were written by men or women.

But no, all we hear is “guys just want the ride”, even when wanting more is a staple theme in both male and female fantasies.

That's the fantasy. It makes a better story than mundane reality just like Tolkien or Star Trek or whatever.

What you need to contrast the experience of the guy out there screwing round with is that of long-term monogamous commitment. How would Richard and Julia have been getting on after 10, 20 years of 'wedded bliss'? Would he have been up to his old kerb crawling tricks again, hunting fresh meat?

I'd like to see just once the movie that shows the womaniser having a more fulfilled life than the 'domestic drudge'. But I guess any screenwriter who told that story would be accused of misogyny...

I would imagine it's a fairly even split in Ireland alright. I can't see it skewing anywhere near the numbers suggested in this thread, given there are actually more single women than men in Ireland, iirc.
