EDIT: A simple proof to this would be to set your facebook profile to "In a relationship" and go out and add ten random beautiful women as friends. Do the same with "Single" and you will end with significantly lower amount of "accepted".
- natrius 17y agoThat's not really proof of this. Randomly friending someone of the opposite gender is usually interpreted as a creepy attempt to pursue someone. If they're in a relationship, that motive has to be incorrect. Maybe it's someone you know from somewhere, or someone who likes your work. In that mindset, accepting the request is far more likely.
- rokhayakebe 17y agoThe way I understood this article is that women are more interested in guys who are not single whether they know him or not. This experiment will prove just that.
- natrius 17y agoThe experiment doesn't measure interest; it measures the likelihood of accepting a friend request. Accepting a friend request is not strong evidence of romantic interest due to the interactions I described.
