Are You Getting Skewed Here?
Are You Getting Skewed Here? I was just doing some reading for a post I have in mind regarding dating sites. YES, theses siteS ( yup, there are more than just the one here ) you are reading this on are dating sites - with an emphasis on sex. As I was reading I came across the following statement regarding attractiveness There is some evidence that there may be differences in how women online rate male attractiveness as opposed to how men rate female attractiveness. The distribution of ratings given by men of female attractiveness appears to be the normal distribution, while ratings of men given by women is highly skewed, with 80% of men rated as below average. This shows that women are genuinely more picky than men when it comes to appearance on online dating websites. So the question is . . . wadda y'all think?

Well there's so many more women than men so they can afford to be pickier. Not sure if it's that they actually would be were the ratio the same When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

It depends on your geographical location too. I look in the places that have the kind of women I like. That are friendly, not full of them selves, and worried about how there hair looks . I'm not gonna tell you where to look, but there is a reason why don't live is a city When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

In my experience men are far more discerning when it comes to visual appearance in online interaction. For example, a young lad I know says he has been ruined by the swipe left or right site, he will only swipe right if the girl's photo portrays an absolute stunner,and if he goes on to meet the girl, if she's as stunning in real life. In my own case, I focus on the personality first, if the girl comes across as intelligent and articulate first then I might seek to engage with her. Ithink I'm picky in that way. Most of the ladies I interact with seem to be similarly discerning??? When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

It goes really without saying just reading profiles here is enough of an answer.You'd think if women were that scared of what a man might say or do because they didn't answer a message which is a pretty good indicator someone is dreadful.They would be going after what they want and sending a bunch of their own messages.I know it is another double standard that they would rather give than receive.What is sexual freedom if you're not going after what you want rather than waiting for the 90% of us out their that make them so sick to look at sending you messages. Using more than all the road!

The only problem with the ration that I see is there are a lot on men pissing or chasing off women when they don't know how to interact with them. It never fails.

Hmm

That's a good point. Different people are here for different reasons. Trying to lump all (men or women) into one category is pointless. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

It's a well known fact that women prefer our brains to be in our heads rather than in our dicks. I'm fine with that. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

I think that women in general don't rate men at all unless specifically asked to. I think women are pickier than men when the circumstances dictate that they can be. If I send out five emails I get at least five responses. I always feel that the ratio of men to women on this site is overblown. From my perspective it's not an issue.

To paraphrase Lala: A man must have social skills to be attractive to most women. These specifically include an ability to converse. Right here is where online attractiveness falls apart for me. A man sitting in front of a woman, HAS to talk, HAS to be engaging because he can SEE by her reactions (real time) how his engagement is progressing. He becomes more attractive to her by reading her cues and responding accordingly, basically including her. Ideally that is. An online conversation is almost NEVER (for me) inclusive of MY interests in conversation. A man's initial attractiveness in his picture tanks when he engages in virtual conversation that's oversexual, even after being informed that that's not appropriate. What's worse are the convos in which all I say is "cool" because it's really a monologue. I'd be curious if that Business Insider article had examples of the 18 emails that men send women to get a response. Were they thought-out and reflected that he'd read her profile? Were they individualized? Did they include a picture? Were they less than 5 words? Were they just chest-beating look-at-me-me-me-me-me ones? That kind of stuff makes a difference too. Then those you mention have no "game" as it were and perhaps not much between their . . . ears. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

Yeah, women are definitely picky. They never pick me. Unless they are a bot. Or a fake profile. Or in deepest Central Africa. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

I think the attractiveness of males is based on the whole person, personality, hygiene, and the way they look. And I have to say a man with a great sense of humor is a major plus in my book. Too many base things on someone's looks it's not all about that for me.. When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
