My man, you’re on tinder - show some understanding. She’s multitasking talking with 132 other men at the same time, looking for the most immaculate guy there is. I’d be talking like a brick wall either if I was getting the level of attention she is!
Not sure if you’re being entirely serious, but I do find it funny when people (often women in this context) self sabotage like this. By half assing 20 conversations, some number of good matches will bounce because you look like a boring person who can’t converse. You’re more likely to end up with someone who doesn’t care about your words, and then will probably treat you badly.
I like to imagine a girl sitting on a bar stool in the middle of a bar full of men, slowly giving one word answers to the questions the men yell out like a press corps.
In another thread somewhere, someone pointed out that over time dating apps tend to fill up with … let’s say people who perform poorly on dating. People who are good at conversing and picking good photos (which is distinct from being physically attractive) will enter the system, and then leave pretty quickly. People who are shit at talking, have poor photos, and date badly, will stay longer.
That may be true, but the platform also has an incentive to only give you bad matches. If you match with someone you are actually a good match for, you will probably leave the platform and therefore stop paying them money.
This is also true. I think the app owners want you to get a steady trickle of so-so but imperfect matches. If you get nothing, you’ll leave. But if you keep almost getting it, you’ll come back. And maybe pay for that “premium” service. It’s a trash business model.
Match-makers where you pay once has a better incentive, since the longer you’re in the system the more labor they have to do, but those tend to be expensive.
OKCupid had a blog post about why you should never pay for dating services, but after they got bought by Match Group that vanished.
Least rapey. Most likely to actually want to know her as a person. Someone who likes women.
Very high standard. Not many meet it.
Just remember guys: if you don’t want to hang out with them on their favorite shopping trip, or listen to gossip about their work frenemy, or include them on your favorite hobby, then it’s ok to just be single. Not everyone likes women. Find one you actually like spending lots of time with, or just hang out with your bros instead. All are good options.
What you don’t want to do is pretend you’re having a good time, then get married and be miserable for the rest of your life because you don’t actually like them. That’s boomer shit.
Yes, and that’s a massive issue, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be concerned about misandria. No tolerance for misoginy and no tolerance for misandria, simple as
There are also many girls who do not care about shopping trips, gossip, work drama, and have hobbies of their own that you can be included in. Women are not intrinsically much different from men. Social conditioning is more than powerful enough to override whatever slight biological inclinations there may be. If you date normies, sure you’ll get people who fit the gender norms of the culture you’re dating in. Normies in another country will behave differently. I don’t think it’s good or right to have a mentality of “well if I don’t like hearing about makeup and dresses I guess speaking to women just isn’t for me”.

Hilarious image
Now picture her as a monkey!
Now picture the bar on a cruise ship!
Which in a bar setting would make sense. Not everyone wants to be hit on just because they’ve gone out.
This person, is on tinder. They’re literally in the place you go if you want to hit on people / get hit on.
“Why can’t men just leave me alone” she ponders, on Tinder
Perhaps there is a reason these people are single.

This man Chloe’s.
This Chloe mans
More likely a bot. There are a lot of those on Tinder.
I think modern bots are better at chatting than this
why go through bot trouble on tinde when I can. have myself a beautiful LLM gf that tells me everything I want to hear
because of the investment opportunities. the waifu LLM is not (yet) a gateway into crypto ;D

Oh yeah, you better don’t go advising shit after that intro next time.
Sarcasm truly is dead, isn’t it.
Wait, so you were serious about the rest of the quote? That makes it even more misandrist.
Many men don’t like women as people. That’s not even a controversial thing to say.
Just look how popular the “men and women can’t be friends” view is.

This sounds like something a man would say smh

That’s… My point I think? You need to like the person.
