  I'm a man and when I used dating apps they were entertainment. Used to say crazy shit for fun, copy and paste prewritten messages, etc.

  That's mostly because women can never be openly "on the market", though. They don't openly look for or solicit sex. There must always be reasonable doubt about their motives, hence "I'm just on there for a laugh" or "I'm only going to his bachelor pad for a drink".

    This might have been true fifty years ago (when "bachelor pad" was a thing) but, outside of certain repressive societies, it isn't true now.

      You're quite welcome to try explicitly asking a woman back to your place for sex. Please let us know how it goes. Why do you not think bachelor pads are a thing? Where do single men live now?

        I did this constantly when I was on tinder. It worked virtually every time I asked straight up (and this was after barely chatting with them), but I was also somewhat selective on who I asked. I wonder if I should have asked more women so directly, but I didn't want to make someone uncomfortable if I wasn't getting the vibe they'd say yes. The worst outcome I had from this approach is that sometimes they'd say "yes" and then just sort of trail off in communication. Not really a problem and I took the hint. As a follow up I also met my fiance on Tinder. Though I didn't approach her immediately for sex, we went on a date first.
