Why Gen Z Is Ditching Dating Apps
-
because every dating app is 70% males, 25% trolls, 4% female chatbots, 0.5% female chatbots, 0.4% trans, 0.1% females. and every message to your match costs $10
-
Literal dating resumes.
-
That overwhelming male engagement is why Grindr has been so much fun on the whole.
-
Surprise mechanics?

dis mf said females

"Our youth love luxury. They have bad manners and despise authority. They show disrespect for their elders and love to chatter instead of exercise. Young people are now tyrants, not the servants of their household. They no longer rise when their elders enter the room. They contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up food and terrorize their teachers.” -Socrates ~400BC

I mean, yes, sex is often free but if one gender is willing to pay significantly more it seems like a pretty reasonable indicator that one gender values/desires sex more.
I dunno, just seems like you are very much determined that something is true with zero evidence. Some people have religion, you have this belief. Except with religion, there's not reams of physical evidence you've decided to disregard because you dislike the conclusions they represent.
-
Possibly to differentiate from the trans women, who were mentioned immediately prior?
-
Homie idk how many times I gotta say it. I'm agnostic to who's more horny. I get why I seem stubborn.
You can believe what you want. Your evidence is too indirect to convince me.
I really think we're arguing slightly different things though. Like it is even important for me say wealth inequality in the world means that sex spending better represents rich countries interests? Therefore has a very very large cultural bias. Not abstact, real cultures are different. Lots of people are unaccounted in your metric, and lots of peope are extremely over counted.
I can be convinced, you just haven't done it. I am not confident the data is out there. Spending definitely has too many flaws to be a good indicator.

At least he kept it consistent with males
-
I figure it's just as valid to be attracted to females vs. males (or any other option) as it's valid to be attracted to women vs. men (or any other option).
It's when you say "men blah blah blah and females blah blah blah" that you obviously think of the latter as unequal, and almost certainly lesser.

Nah fucking is even more fun without a future
-
Trans females!
-
There's a pun in there to be had...
-
Because they don't work. I used them for nearly 20 years before giving up. I'm a solid 8/10, yet no one ever messaged me, and no one ever replied to my messages in all those years. Not a single person.
The only way to find love is by going out and meeting people. Met someone at work back in 2018 and now I'm happily married.

Okay, can you then admit that in rich countries, it appears that men are, on average, hornier than women?
-
I agree that it can look like that at a glance, but why would we expect spending to reflect horniness when sexual expression is less accepted for women in many rich countries? Can you say to what degree that affects it? They may feel just as much hornyness and express it more privately. How can you be confident?
I admit, that if you look at the economic you presented, men spend more on sexual stuff. That is a fine conclusion. But it says very little to me about who is more horny.
-
It sucks because dating apps are a pretty trash experience all around, and definitely have some fundamental demographic issues, but god damn do the incels go wild whenever the conversation comes up.

Great question! If only there were some means to access sexual material in the privacy of one's home. Some sort of world wide web that allowed users to access pretty much their heart's desire online... Wait a minute, that exists! And (unsurprisingly) mozt of the sexual material skews heavily male.
For your proposition of equal horniness to be true, one of two must be true: A)women are so repressed they don't even want sexual materials in which case, even if it's cultural and not biological, women are functionally less horny or B) they are so terrified that someone will bust in and search their web history which seems kind of a bizzare amount of repression.
