That "direct access" is an illusion.

[Vitriol-Divergent]

Well, women and extremely attractive men have more optionality than they ever have. Social media has exacerbated this.

[amirm]

There's also the affect metoo had. While it shed light on workplace harassment, it made men skiddish to interact with women.

[pankaj.srivathsan]

It's always better to choosing mates in real vs in dating apps

[pavementstoneguy]

I'm sure Chad and Tyrone aren't complaining 😂

[melenico]

It's not looking for love it's looking for attention.

[stevenlawrence]

She has enormous amounts of options on dating apps which makes her more difficult to date.

[andywatson]

Dating apps: dumpster diving at its finest.

[maybachjack]

Meaning more of a select group of men horde the dating options by having larger rotations. Women dig deeper into hypergamy because of perceived optionality. Less happiness for overwhelming majority of dating market participants

[RobertJohnson-bjlk]

Searching for love, yet another thing that the Internet has ruined.

[eattravellovejoy]

And more opportunities for cheaters/lack of trust

[darrenmanser]

Top 10% get 90% of the menu. (I'm not in that 10%)

[ak]

Yeah, giving women unprecedented power over marriage has worked out really well /s

[GeorgeLista]

Ostensibly looking for love? This is how you know he’s not on dating apps 😅

[ladyofspa]

Perhaps its the quality in the market. Folk are finding fulfillment in other areas of life. The dating realm can be deeply profoundly disappointing and a waste of valuable time. Matches need to be made in a totally new innovative way!!❤❤

Focus on your purpose. Move forward and achieve your goals. Shadow success and seek out mentorship.
Don’t worry about dating. At all.
You have work to do.
When you’ve arrived, they come to you. Like hordes of Vikings cresting over a hill.
I’m short, bald, and left handed. It simply doesn’t matter. Women are attracted to success; be successful.
But true success with legs in the long game, takes time and commitment.
However, the pay off is huge.
Find your “thing” and become the best at it.
Good luck.
Passport and mojitos.

I contribute the “lessened number of hookups and sexual interactions to be a direct reflection of:
1) abortion laws
2) content like this

[sgbawg]

For Chads and Tyrones, dating apps are a Godsend.

[vbernard]

That's deep. More Access but less Relationships.

Fewer people are hooking up. Is that actually accurate information?

It seemed like it was more hook ups and less relationships and decrease in marriage.

[tristanwall]

I just have the most boring dates through dating apps idk if anyone else feels the same. The only time I have fun is when I actually get a date or a number in public.
