Hey man,
Jason here from Daygame.com.
Ever wonder why your dating app experience has been frustrating? Feels like you're pouring your energy into a black hole with little to nothing in return, right? Well, I've been there too. But, the truth I discovered was - it's not you, it's the game you're playing.
Dating apps may seem convenient, but they're a battlefield, and sadly, the average man is outgunned. Let's look at the raw data to understand why.
First off, the playing field is uneven. Reports suggest there are up to three times as many men as women on dating apps. This creates a fierce competition where the odds are stacked against men from the start.
Add to this the way we swipe. Men are nearly three times as likely to swipe right compared to women. This dynamic further skews the balance, tilting the scale in favor of a small group of men.
And the numbers confirm it. A Hinge engineer shared some eye-opening data: 50% of likes from men went to only 25% of women, while 50% of likes from women went to just 15% of men. In other words, a small group of men receive a lion's share of the attention.
Consider this: a simulation was conducted to mimic a dating app environment, populated with 1,000 dummy profiles. The 'attractiveness' of each profile was randomized, with the notion that users are more likely to 'like' attractive profiles. However, due to the gender imbalance, 750 of these profiles were male, and only 250 were female, reflecting the reality of most dating apps.
As in real life, not every profile has an equal chance of being seen, let alone 'liked'. In this simulated world, a profile gets about 50 views per day. So, for women (who are already outnumbered 3 to 1), they're only viewing 50 out of 750 male profiles daily. The competition for visibility alone is fierce for men.
Despite this, the results showed a considerable advantage for those at the top. The most attractive 10% of men, as per their randomized 'attractiveness' score, garnered an impressive 37 likes on average. That's a lot when you consider that these 'likes' are coming from a small pool of only 250 women, most of whom are only viewing a fraction of the available profiles daily.
In stark contrast, the average man received a meagre 0 to 1 like. This vividly illustrates how a small percentage of men are monopolizing the attention, leaving the vast majority out in the cold.
So, why the significant disparity?
Dating apps primarily judge attractiveness by physical looks because they can't capture the full spectrum of your personality. Your sense of humour, your confidence, your charisma - all these crucial non-physical qualities are invisible in the world of dating apps.
Yet, we know that attractiveness extends beyond the physical. Multiple studies have shown that women place significant emphasis on non-physical traits such as character, confidence, and a sense of humour.
This is where Daygame comes into play - the 'real-life Tinder'. In Daygame, your attractiveness isn't confined to a few photos and a witty bio. It's about YOU - your confidence, your charisma, your character - all qualities you can develop and improve with practice!
