Why are there so few women compared to men on apps.

Not on fab before anyone wants to say some weird shit about getting sisters or whatever to join. Let's not go there.

Just saying I've been reading some stuff that states online dating apps and what have you have significantly higher ratios of men than women.

There's a few contributing factors for dating apps such as poor social skills etc etc but across the board men use apps to hook up way more than women. Considering women ever so slightly outnumber men here in the UK, that seems weird to me. I get it for swinging purposes and why it's absoultely not for some women but for actual dating and funding a romantic life partner it seems odd.

Is it because of social media, a percentage of blokes just being assholes on those apps (and let's be honest, happens on here as well) or are many women just happy on their own?

Just curious is all. Anyone got any insight?

I had been wondering exactly the same thing but was trying to work out how to phrase it. Is it because women only have to snap their fingers and gentlemen will do their bidding or something larger?

I think that an imbalance of people, who are able to dissociate feelings, from sexual partners is a big part of it

Don't think there is 1 particular answer:

Thirsty/desperate men

Men more willing to cheat

It's a "lad" thing

Even in the modern world men have more time (kids with mother over farther)

Men less discrete

Men are never happy with what they have.

Men always want what they can't have.

Men always feel they're missing out.

Men don't see relationships the same way women do.

Its a good question OP.

My initial logical thought would have been that there are just proportionately more men than women in the world so naturally it would play out similarly in an app. But if thats not the case, and as you say in the UK its actually the opposite, then all i can think of is that it is simply far easier for women to find someone in real life than it is for men.

Why that should be the case then is another quandary. Perhaps women demand more in a partner then men do, meaning there is always a supply of men knocking around available, but not the same amount of women

Let me open your eyes a little.

Most men who match with me on dating apps are after sex; not a relationship. Even when their profile says they are looking for a relationship.

Because the men on dating apps are looking for sex. Women are looking for a partner. If it were only the men who wanted an actual relationship the numbers would be more equal, in my opinion.

My son in his mid 20,s has discussed this very issue with me...One of his housemates is female. Apparently one of the reason for there being a lot less females than men, is because it is not considered cool by females (particularly in his age group) to be on dating apps.

i think its because women in general can take it or leave it and i think find it easier to meetpeople whiles out and about its always been the same even before the internet when dating was a magazine it was always full of men and very few women ... how do i know this lol when i left school my first job was at a printers these old dating mags and contact mags were 95% men

Thats fine. Thats probably a reasonable suggestion as to why there are so many more men on dating sites. That is, a lot of them arent actually on there for dating , whereas a much higher percentage of women are on dating sites for dating.

I can see that

I read that more men are lonely compared to women. Women find it easier to make friendships and Socialise. Perhaps they get more satisfaction away from apps as they happier with their personal lives. Maybe more men use dating apps for a social aspect if they struggle in the real world. Another possibility why there are more men on them.

Surely men are simple to understand, we are programmed to respond to obvious stimuli and fertilise. What baffles me is that women have a clit with twice as many nerve endings as a cock, can have repeat and deeper orgasms yet can just switch off, how?? If we had clits we would be playing with them all day and never get any work done!!

Another suggestion i would make is that men are simply more willing to engage in conversation out and about than women are. For example, if a man tries to talk to a woman in a supermarket or a bar or a park, shes immediately suspicious of his motives (perhaps with good reason a lot of the times), so therefore this drives men online as its so hard to meet someone out.

Whereas if a woman decides she wants to meet someone and starts chatting to guys out and about, the guy is more than likely only too happy to engage.

I'd imagine many women tend to find guys in the real world and as such don't find themselves relying on apps to find someone as much as guys do.

Or maybe women just have an easier time than guys trying to find someone on an app, as such they spend less time on them and are more likely to delete it when they don't need it anymore. Though based on many of the complaints I've seen women make on here about the guys they encounter I don't think "easier" is the word to describe their experience.

Obviously these are just thoughts on it and I have no evidence to back up anything I've said. Also I'm not a woman so it's really not for me to say what things are like for them.

Was replying to another poster who was replying to my first comment but I hadn’t figured out the reply with quote part for looks like I’m talking to myself I was saying that women get fed up with dating apps (or atleast myself and the ones I know who use them) because of the constant dishonesty and being messed about. At least with fab you know it’s about sex. Plus a lot of women use dating apps for dating and not for sex. I think a lot more men use the apps for sex too. It can turn women away from the apps. Those genuine men can lose out. It’s like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

Testosterone? Men have higher sex drives? Might have a clit but it takes me longer and more effort to achieve an orgasm than a man.

From many threads on here is pretty clear that women are less likely to initiate contact. (To be clear, this isn't universal but there are definitely more who say they never or tartu send a first message) I wonder if this translates into men feeling more pressure to search out a partner while women are more passive and wait to be found? If so then why use an app when the man of your dreams is expected to ride up on his white charger and whisk you out of the queue at Poundland.

"Not on fab before anyone wants to say some weird shit about getting sisters or whatever to join. Let's not go there.

Just saying I've been reading some stuff that states online dating apps and what have you have significantly higher ratios of men than women.

There's a few contributing factors for dating apps such as poor social skills etc etc but across the board men use apps to hook up way more than women. Considering women ever so slightly outnumber men here in the UK, that seems weird to me. I get it for swinging purposes and why it's absoultely not for some women but for actual dating and funding a romantic life partner it seems odd.

Is it because of social media, a percentage of blokes just being assholes on those apps (and let's be honest, happens on here as well) or are many women just happy on their own?

Just curious is all. Anyone got any insight?

"

The sexual market it is not the same for Women and men. Apps or not. These women probably just don't want to be judge for their enjoyment of sex. This is a place for that.

So singles nights are the opposite , often the organisers struggle to get enough numbers of men but not women. I’ve been to some where ratio of men was about 1/4 - 1/3 even after tons of calls for more men on social media to attend them.

Based on my own experience, and people I know who are on the dating apps... Alot of men, compared to women, will have more freedom/time/disposable income/less responsibility, so are in better place for dating. Majority of women are care givers of some kind, kids/family etc. Plus having to work.

I have noticed this when I'm looking through profiles - lots of men saying "kids live with their mum" etc. Men my age seem to have an abundance of spare time. My female friends and I don't.

Women I have spoken to about dating sites have been very put off by the sexualised messages. From the beginning usually. I remember joining POF and being inundated with sleazy messages. It's very off putting.

As someone in a very happy open relationship, on fab, more often than not the assumption is I'm cheating on my wife. She's yet to be accused of cheating on me though but it's just a matter of time lol. So yeah it is harsh (espesially when you are accused of being a cheat when you are not) but let's be honest, there's no shortage of people on here who admit to being cheats of both genders.

I don’t discriminate women can be sneaky fuckers also .Maybe women are slightly more discreet.

I am only going on the amount of stories and friends of friends etc where someone has met the perfect man on a dating app only for him to end up married .

So maybe some men see it as a quick and easy way to get a quick shag and cheat.Hence why theirs more men on dating apps.

Another fabber pointed out that women typically outnumber men many times over at singles events, so it isn't that women aren't looking for love.

I really think that apps and online appeal to many men because they are the lowest effort you can put in, and a lot of profiles reflect how little effort many are prepared to make. And that in turn is really disappointing and depressing to many women so we avoid those platforms as a result!

That's a valid point...however that also shows that many women have a very classical (old fashioned) approach to dating, in the sense they expect the men to approach them, make the effort and in some way or another "woo" them. There's always this notion that men have to make an effort if a woman is to ever consider them (you find this argument on fab especially). I personally believe that as a man I should put that effort in building myself as a person (physically, mentally, emotionally) and use that as attraction, and just wait until I meet someone compatible...and if more men would have a similar approach, then maybe this disproportionate dynamic of online dating wouldn't exist.

I think my point is that many men seem to make significantly less effort than women (in broad and very general terms). I don't think women need to be wooed necessarily, but it is depressing when it appears most men won't even match your effort with a handful of photos and a paragraph of text.

I agree with you though, time spent working on yourself is never wasted!

I think it’s lots of little things that all add up to make the difference overall.

Men (generally) have more time as women (generally) have more caring responsibilities - kids, elderly relatives etc.

Men are more likely to leave a relationship that isn’t working for them, and men (again generally) are more likely to start looking on apps as they are leaving, or even before.

It’s more socially acceptable for men to be out on lots of dates/hooking up. Their mates and work colleagues will find it a laugh. Women are more cautious because they (generally) get more judgement.

It’s safer, physical safety, for men to meet women than women to meet men from apps.

Women are generally more content to be single than men.

If I was single I doubt I'd use any of those apps. Your percentage of arseholes reason is the most appropriate for me,its frightening how many men have little respect for women including those they claim to love, how many are willing to back each other up in that disrespect and how many will accuse anyone who pulls them up of being narrow minded or lacking in humour.

I feel I'd be better able to meet the majority of men who don't fit the above category off line.

Could be wrong and I hope I never get to test my theory

I had been wondering exactly the same thing but was trying to work out how to phrase it. Is it because women only have to snap their fingers and gentlemen will do their bidding or something larger?"

Seems

Its all way way deeper,we are only skimming the mere surface here atm.

Many trends and norms practises have changed over time. But the App's era is actually abit more easier to gauge some level of numbers,

Society as a whole has changed within the age groups,towards sex,open easy,non relation commited married,partner sex.

I think apart from some profiles/status,s ive read.

Many women whom are seeking sex constantly married,behind a partners back,extra portions,or many other variants will not go shouting it out loud from the roofs!! Not wanting to be caught,nor judged.

Unlike the male trends that are more commen for easy open free,regular sex,as viewed from the apps,on fab here and otherwise.

But there are many many factors still to be considered yet.

Iam sure there will be tons of information poppijg up here soon.

I agree,cant beat face to face. Talk,chat,eye contact,voice tone. So much human contact and art form and real life skills are lost om the way.

Typing,apps ,text,pics,vids. Are only a tool.

Use to setup dates,meets for quality time inperson.

Let me open your eyes a little.

Most men who match with me on dating apps are after sex; not a relationship. Even when their profile says they are looking for a relationship.

Thats fine. Thats probably a reasonable suggestion as to why there are so many more men on dating sites. That is, a lot of them arent actually on there for dating , whereas a much higher percentage of women are on dating sites for dating.

"Another suggestion i would make is that men are simply more willing to engage in conversation out and about than women are. For example, if a man tries to talk to a woman in a supermarket or a bar or a park, shes immediately suspicious of his motives (perhaps with good reason a lot of the times), so therefore this drives men online as its so hard to meet someone out.

Whereas if a woman decides she wants to meet someone and starts chatting to guys out and about, the guy is more than likely only too happy to engage. "

"Not on fab before anyone wants to say some weird shit about getting sisters or whatever to join. Let's not go there.

Just saying I've been reading some stuff that states online dating apps and what have you have significantly higher ratios of men than women.

There's a few contributing factors for dating apps such as poor social skills etc etc but across the board men use apps to hook up way more than women. Considering women ever so slightly outnumber men here in the UK, that seems weird to me. I get it for swinging purposes and why it's absoultely not for some women but for actual dating and funding a romantic life partner it seems odd.

Is it because of social media, a percentage of blokes just being assholes on those apps (and let's be honest, happens on here as well) or are many women just happy on their own?

Just curious is all. Anyone got any insight?

"

Simple supply and demand.

Same reason there are more women in brothels and on only fans.

The market dictates it.

It also dictates the quality of the product...but thats a touchy subject.

Men want it laid on a plate but don't want to work for it.

Actually making an effect even on a singles night would be seen as to much work

Part of the problem may be that if you flop your knob out and flash it in people's faces in public at singles nights, speed dating or just a social meet up at Starbucks (other coffee shops are also available) then you risk getting arrested, whereas online andmon Fab..........

I love that when a woman won’t go to something like that it’s because of her self esteem or whatever, but when men won’t show up it’s always because he’s a lazy disgusting pig that wants it all on a plate

I’m a pretty confident guy and a singles night still gets me nervous. I’d say 90% of my male friends have never been on a 1on1 date from the apps, not because they’re lazy pigs, but because just like women the thought of rejection is terrifying and their self esteem d couldn’t take it

Agree completely! I’m astounded by the double standards on here. Astounded but no longer shocked sadly

I haven't been to a singles night, but for the men I've spoken to it would be even more intimidating than for me. Women can be assured of a welcome. Men are often seen as predators and avoided.

Indeed. And men are treated with eyeroll, as in 'oh great, another single man ', whereas the red carpet will be rolled out for women.

No doubt there are lazy men out there, but the reasons go far deeper than that

Exactly and very often men are expected to do the approaches and make the first move!

I guess men also want it on a plate if they don’t go to clubs?

Or is it because they charge is 3x as much as everyone in there assumes I’m a convicted sex offender until I prove I’m not?

Yeah, the double standards don’t shock me anymore.

Men are expected to turn up looking good, approach, accept rejection gracefully, be funny, confident, charming, not too pushy, but also take the lead, but not too much. And if you put even 1 foot out of place your forever in the bin. It’s a fucking mine field

How weird that men don’t want to attend these things.
