They added "87,596 women". Now, if you look at that number, does anything feel unnatural and made up about it? 56789.

  Just because the integers in that number happen to be consecutive if you reorder them doesn't mean they aren't "natural" (whatever that means). For example, a random number generator is exactly as likely to generate 12345 as it is 00000 or 92834 (for five digits). That doesn't mean any of those options is more "natural" or "random" than any other just because it doesn't "look random enough".

  I could easily believe a large number of women signing up if the vast majority of them are either: * people signing up with fake details to look for people they know (their friends/colleagues, local politicians, their own spouse, etc) or * sex workers who heard on the news about a great site to advertise their availability on that they were previously unaware of
