Do you think it is easier for men or women to date?

Question

ManOnFire · Accepted Answer

I hear women complaining that it's harder for them to date, and I hear men complaining that it's harder for them to date. I really don't know. Although, women do want it to be harder for men and want men to feel hopeless and powerless about dating and even sex.

Getting dates more often doesn't equate to having an easier or better time dating. In fact it can be worse than fewer dates. Because you're constantly going through people and still never settling on them. I have a guy friend who is always getting dates. He meets women on dating apps and they are always messaging him and he goes out with a good number of them... but still never ends up choosing them for good. So in the end I don't think it really means much to have an easier time dating if it doesn't result in a lasting relationship.

Yo @hawkperception  Here to call BS  on your statement ! 😆 Kidding . I don't compete with whatever numbers there is to look that. I'm here to challenge the idea of "easier" and "harder", these are simply measurement on a scale measuring... Odds. But then what odds have to do with a human being? We are  subjective, subject to feelings , we live in the world of feelings, from sunset to sunrise, we are not odds on a chart, we are much  more complex and intense than any numbers , as hinted by @liamjhayden  As such, how exactly are we going to measure what is easy and hard when it depends on factors such as  internal feelings we don't get to know nor measure.

I think it’s harder for TRADITIONAL people to date in today’s insane, morally bankrupt world. They get jaded snd demotivated and ultimately just figure it’s better to be alone that to deal with all the crap of wading through the huge pool of tramps and losers.

Every man no matter how old wants an attractive girl in her prime, this brings total imbalance in dating. Then it's just supply and demand question.

HawkPerception · Answer

It is 100% easier for women to get a date than men.

Crazyced · Answer

How could I say this... Women single handedly forced Bumble to dismantle the central pillar of their business model, that was specifically designed FOR them (although stupid in my opinion), simply because being forced to send the 1st message was considered 'too much of a hassle' by them.

If this doesn't perfectly picture the dynamic of modern dating to you, nothing will. I have no doubts women have their struggles, but finding and going on dates isn't one of them.

Also don't think that when it comes to men's dating prospect, the lack of quantity equals an increase in quality.

Women tend to find about 80% of men unattractive. I think no matter what a girl looks like there’s a man willing to date her. The problem is that a lot of women say they can’t find a man, but that’s because a lot of them are not looking at that 80% of men, just that top 20 tier who most likely don’t want them. But if they looked at that bottom 80% where most of them belonged as well, some dude would date her. Now if those less that attractive men looked at that lower bottom % of women they didn’t find attractive, most of those women still wouldn’t date those men. So yes I think it’s easier for women.

Serkee · Answer

Women don't need to put in any effort toward dating. Any woman can get a date no problem, as long as they're not morbidly obese. They have their pick of the litter, and just need to wait to be approached. Their difficulty is in picking the right guy, but guys have that difficulty too. When it comes to dating and relationships, women have men by the balls.

Kaamraj · Answer

Oh there's absolutely no doubt or debaet about it, it's much easier for women to date than men. This has always been the case but due to social media it has been put on steroids. The data is there for everyone to see, swiping patterns from Dating Apps show that while most men find most women attractive, most women do not find most men attractive. Meaning they are much more selective than men.

UnicornLobotomy · Answer

I was the pioneer of dating down, me, mark zuckerberg and real housewives of Miami and onlyfanz we messed up the whole dating market place 16 years ago.

I apologize on behalf of me and the millions of other thirsty top 10%ers with low confidence and indecisiveness who dated 5s or FTF’ed and booty called 3s and 4s.

A_Nihilist · Answer

If we're talking online dating. Then it's not easy for anyone.

If we're talking out in the world and meeting people at random. I think it's easier for women as they have far less work to do when it comes to being interacted with.

Men, more often than not, do not get approached by the vast majority of women.

thegreenyogi · Answer

I think these days the dating worlds presents challenges for both genders equally. So I think it's fair to say there isn't at least in my view a gender that has it easier than the other.

ProbablyClueless · Answer

Women have a harder time dating men that actually excite them, but men have a harder time getting their foot in the door.  Overall, I'd rather be a man than a woman in the dating process.

BadApple69 · Answer

I could be wrong but I think it’s easier for a woman to get a date than a guy.  Now, get a good date? That’s hard no matter male or female.

LiamJHayden · Answer

Women get asked more, but as for whom is it easier I am not certain.

beefcakebradybatson · Answer

Women, because we men must ask them out and (sometimes lavishly, at least enough to catch their interest) spend money on them.
