Hilariously, it's because women just don't care about this. [1]
Excerpt from a study:
> Men were more strongly attracted to women with whom they shared musical tastes than to women with whom they did not. The sharing of musical tastes had only a negligible effect on women's attraction to men, however.
Many men place a huge emphasis on musical compatibility, but very few women do, and IIRC it's a fairly poor indicator for relationship compatibility. Young single men would probably be better off letting this one go.

- officeplant 5y agoSo what you're saying is we need a men for men dating site based on music preferences. Anyone out there into long walks in the dead winter woods listening to Lustmord, hit me up.
