- sidewndr46 3y agoHow is it possible? Well more men use dating apps than women. That's how demographics work. It also isn't that steep in reality, but more than half of dating app users are heterosexual men on most platforms (a site exclusively for lesbians obviously would not have those kind of numbers).
- Tycho 3y agoWell “more than half” is a completely different proposition to “9 out of 10”.
- Jensson 3y agoIf men needs 10 times as much time spent on a dating app to find a partner then you would see 10 men for every woman on it, even if the same number of women and men are looking for a partner. And looking at how much harder it is for men to find a match 10 times as much time to find a partner for men seems reasonable.
