They are SO unbalanced. There are hundreds or thousands of guys for every girl. We just had a topic on this three days ago. I could spend hours explaining how unbalanced and crazy it is.
But some quick numbers I've been able to put together...
1) There are hundreds of guys for every girl. OR WORSE.
2) 99% of girls profiles on there are fake or actively bots. Many are prostitutes. So any real girls are lost in a huge sea of fake profiles that look real.
3) Girls are inundated with offers in minutes. Guys go months without a response (except from bots.) So girls just open Tinder and have unlimited dates. Guys wonder if there is even a single girl on Tinder.
4) A girl will literally get more responses from filling out a profile than a guy will get in months of putting in hours a day trying to meet someone.
5) Even with a decent profile (not special) and blindly swiping right on EVERY picture, for weeks, it is unlikely to get even a single hit for guys. Eventually they will get one, but they are super rare.
6) On the super rare chance that you meet a girl, because the girls have unlimited options they have resorted to ghosting or standing guys up at an atrocious rate.
I've done a lot of research because I'm working on a romcom screenplay based on how ridiculous Tinder is and how little women understand how it works.

This is what I came up with:
"If you're a woman seeking a guy on dating apps, it can sometimes feel like there's an overwhelming amount of men on there. Maybe that's because men (and often the ones you're not interested in) send more messages than women, but it can definitely feel like they're dominating."
"When it comes to Tinder, the most popular dating app, the good news is that it's a 50/50 split between men and women. "
So there you have it. Equal numbers, but the guys will swipe on most every girl. Then all the girls have to do, is just sit back and swipe on the hottest guys. Then the hot guys start sorting through their matches. They're looking for the hottest girl, that's DTF. (And hopefully that same night.)
They start with the 10s and work their way down to the 4s.
So a decent, confident, intelligent guy who's a 7, doesn't stand a chance with getting a girl who's above a 3.
Girls would much rather have a hot jerk, than a decent average guy.
Yeah, there are mainly guys on there.

The gender ratio in dating is just unbalanced in general, and dating apps get a lot of the overflow. The reason is women are much more likely to be "sharing" partners. A desirable guy could date two or three women at the same time and is much more likely to be double-dealing. Women cheat too, but generally it's going to be with men who are themselves cheating. Few women cheat with single men because if they do, they just break up with their boyfriend and date the single guy.
Also, men like my father will knock up three different women, then those women are "removed from play" because they're too busy being single mothers to want to date (although I know a lot of single mothers who do date, I know more who don't). None of them ever dated seriously again to my knowledge, but just raised my worthless father's children.
Only 35% of men in history passed on their genes, whereas 80% of women did (and most of the other 20% didn't because they died in childhood before they got the chance).I think Western Culture and Society is organized in a way in which women get more disproportionally more proposals then men do.
Men usually take the initiative, instead of women. So, women have more choice when picking a partner, since they get a lot more proposals, while most men end up rejected.
Since women have more offer they try to pick their best ones, often ending up picking the same man another woman did, over and over again.
This creates a cycle, where few chosen lucky guys get all the women and end up treating them in a lesser manner than if they had been chosen less.
This disproportionate difference in gender behaviour tends to make everyone less happy than if there was more equality in gender behaviour.Girls have the quality to select the worst partner if even if you present 100 man. So maybe you should ask a guy friend to do the selection for you instead. I used to have 10 matches a day. Now I have none anymore. So seems to get more competitive. From the 400 matches that didn't remove me I think 350 didn't respond. When you don't totally woo them of the world with the first word you say, they will ignore you. This behavior makes it really hard for me to take girls serious. They wanna play a game? Then you shouldn't mind being used as a toy. So choose wisely.
There's so many more guys. I also believe women have higher standards, so it's harder for guys to match with women they find attractive too.
Women don't need to do anything apart from swipe on that app generally and they'll get something out of it.There's more guys on it
Lots of guys just swipe yes on all the girls
(I used to swipe yes to everyone just to see how many matches I could get)
Tinder is bad for my mental health tho cause it just confuses the fuck out of me.
In person I get a good amount of attention from women. Here I've gotten plenty. But on tinder I get very few matches and I'm like, wtf is the difference?
So I just don't use it anymore cause it drives me crazy.
(Did get a friends with benefits from it once tho)Some guys I know get instantly lots of interest but the majority Struggle to get any interest. And a large group get none. Like literally none.
I think there are both more men and also the fact that more of the men are players who want to sleep with lots of women... so they fulfill the needs of lots of women leaving no need for the rest of the guys.According to google, the ratio there is 50:50. So for every straight girl that gets a match, a straight guy gets a match. Competition is about the same.
Girls are just more picky about who they will talk to. They are more likely to be in control of a date happening. A lot of that is because a disproportional part of males are interested in a casual night of sex though. Girls often perceive that as thinking they have more interest from guys.The top 20% of men have their pick of the top 80% of women. The bottom 80% of men have to fight over the bottom 20% of women.
So how competitive it is as a guy depends on where you place in that.Its competitive. Just know that if you use tinder, you're probably not going to find a good match because every guy who you match with probably has every other girl matching with him as well.. and due to the fact that there aren't that many attractive guys in the first place, the chance of the guy going for you is pretty low.
For an average guy, you're lucky to get a match per month. But the top 20% of guys do well at around 5-20 per week. This is because women consider 80% of men to be below average in attractiveness. Only 20% of men are considered attractive by women.
I don't think there's any way to know the ratio, but there are a fair few girls also, but who knows how many profiles are fake? I wouldn't be surprised though if there wasn't more guys on those apps and sites in general though.
There are about twice as many men as there are women.
But the average woman gets 20 times as many matches as the average man.
So, one could say there is quuuite a bit of imbalance.... competitive? Once you sift through the fake profiles and cam profiles and the dead profiles do you finally come across a match. Well worded or basic, whichever your greeting may be, chances are, she won't respond. Either that, or you get deaded/ghosted out of nowhere. Doesn't matter how promising the conversation is. I have 67 matches and like 30 some unfinished convos.
I’d say it’s beyond competitive for guys, if anything I think it makes both sides more shallow and looks orientated. I joined tinder as a way of overcoming my aspergers with dating with the idea that it gave me more time to make sure I was saying what I meant. Reality is very few matches most are advertising things and if not they either ghost, don’t reply at all or are looking to make fun of guys. I think overall it has lead to a checklist of attractive criteria that women are looking for which may or may not be possible from the male population.
Yea way more guys than girls. And most girls only use it for ego boost to hear guys "adore" them. I used it for about 2 weeks and noted stats. Got 107 matches, only 6 messaged first. I only got around to message 70. 45 never responded. About another 10 to or so) just responded once ("hi" or "how are you" or "hahaha" etc.) and that was it. Not worth the effort for me. Girls have it easier but tend to end up choosing jerks (I created a fake profile to confirm this)
Well, in my personal opinion Tinder is mainly used by men to find a woman to hookup or have sex with, so they’ll match up with whoever is relatively attractive and is willing. I think there also men on there who are insecure, unconfident, and think of themselves as losers, so you’ll see them not being picky with the assortment of women there are in Tinder.
most dating websites have a small amount of guys who get a LOT of matches, and the majority get some, and a small amount get zilch. Just life--men are less selective.
Online dating isn't really practical for finding someone for most guys. It's more like a lottery just swipe right on everyone and see what you got. Maybe you'll get lucky and someone with match, maybe you'll get super lucky and they're actually like you. But it's not something guys should invest much time in in my opinion. It's worth the one to two minutes a day to use all your swipes and then get on with your day, that's all.
If you are a girl, don't have to even be remotely attractive than you will get a hit like in sec (I'm not saying nits wrong just these are the facts and we need not ignore them) a guy on the other hand unless you are like Brad pit level of hot don't even bother!
VERY. ratio of men to women is quite lopsided, and merely swiping right or left is not enough feedback.
