You’re heard the horror stories.
The top 10% of men on Hinge get 58% of the likes.
Men get 1 match for every 20 to 50 likes.
70% of active male users on Hinge have never gotten a first date.
The top 10% of men on Tinder get 67% of the likes.
Are they true?
As any woman using those apps can tell you, it’s more than likely.
Why?
Because the vast majority of male profiles are – and this seems to be intentional – a joke.
They’re an “f-you” to women. Disrespectful. Offensive. Half-assed.
Men who don’t use a real picture of themselves. Men who use their profiles to vent their anger. Men who are just doing it as a laugh.
It’s fair to say only 10% of male profiles show any real effort.
Which means those men get a disproportionate number of likes and matches.
If you’re a guy whose profile isn’t performing, try this. Ask an attractive single female friend to revamp it with you. At the very least, ask someone who’s good with a camera to take pictures of you.
Do not trust your judgment. Do not trust your guy friends.
