Since the odds are better for men in real life why stay on here and complain? I wish someone would address my question.
No one will listen to complainers IRL. Here they get an audience, feedback and validation. | |

Posted: 5/22/2012 7:24:46 PM | I had to narrow down my search quite a bit to get under 600.
Ages 29-31 within 5 miles
Females - 268
Males - 475
Ages 26-28 within 5 miles.
Females - 256
Males - 572
Granted, that is a VERY narrow age range, but the results are pretty obvious. | |

Posted: 5/22/2012 8:58:19 PM | | I might be wrong but the problem dont seem to be anything with how many men or women are in the area. If that would have been the problem then most of the men and women would have already found each other and all you would have left are the extra men or the extra women in that area.. It seems that both genders attack each other for what ever reason. Every one works extra hard to find red flags. Which realy is a reason to stay single and not deal with a relationship. But let not forget that there are some people that only there mom might think they are cute and thats when its your birthday only. | |

Posted: 5/22/2012 10:55:54 PM | | How do you get numerical values past 600? I live in a big city and even for the 18-25 Caucasian only (LoL don't ask) age group there are 600+ women. I can only imagine how many guys are there. | |

Posted: 5/23/2012 3:58:20 AM | I posted this in another discussion and someone kindly pointed me to this thread so I'll contribute it here as well...
Men vs women on POF, Brisbane - 25mile radius.
Age _FsM _ MsF _Ratio
18-19 _517 ._ 701 _1.4
20-23 1845 _4053 _2.2
24-31 3230 10228 _3.2
32-37 1685 _3966 _2.4
38-44 1905 _3325 _1.7
45-50 1483 _1901 _1.3
51-59 1409 _1481 _1.1
Total 12074 _25655 _2.1
Depending on your age group there are 1-3 men for every woman here, with 2 being the average. Age group 24-31 has the peak difference in ratio at 3.2 men/woman.
How do you get numerical values past 600?
I did one data point for each age. When it went over 600 I filtered by another parameter (I used 'do you want kids' but it doesn't have to be) and added the filtered values back together afterwards for that age. Then I grouped them into the ranges based on the observed steps in the ratio. | |

In my area of Sydney - no age restrictions just geography.
Within 5 miles, 8 miles, 10miles,
Female 242, 577, 600+
Male 98, 177, 310
Ha ha, I sort of wish I hadn't just seen that. But it probably explains a lot....
All you guys who are complaining, Sydney's a fun place for a visit :) | |

PLUS...and I don't want to sound shallow here, but the women are FAR better looking than the guys!
Well, you have to admit, of the 2 genders, women are the most attractive of the 2 genders. Bit of a Seinfeld reference there. From Elaine when she was comparign the 2, "Men's bodies are like utility vehicles, while women's bodys are works of art" | |

Yes, I know that I just wanted a man to point it out. I know for a fact there are plenty of guys getting dates from this site, I've spoken to many of them. Those who aren't need do some soul searching. And if 93 to 90 aren't good enough odds then I don't think these complainers could get a date in a women's prison. | |

Most of page one represents the many reasons I don’t date off here
What do you mean?
I don’t have the patience or the inclination to quote every nasty remark. Read the comments by some men on page one. It should be glaringly obvious. | |

"Most" of the page 1 is men stating their stats on area. I still don't get it. Why be on a dating site you don't date off of?
Thats like going shopping at a grocery shop that you don't buy from. | |

What gives is that women don't put out as often as men. Based on raw numbers, a ratio of 93:90 is great for guys, but it sucks if only 45 of the women will have sex. | |

If you can’t find the nasty posts, oh well. Unless they’ve been deleted, you can still read them. I’m sure there will be more where that came from.
I’m here for the forums; they’re entertaining and I’ve made lots of good friends here.
Also, I’ve been to lots of stores I don’t end up buying from, because they don’t have what I want.

Who are men having sex with then?  | |

Posted: 5/23/2012 4:35:51 PM | OK this is my contribution to our demographic polling.
In Phoenix within a 10 mile range of my location I came up with the following. Came out to be 2-1 women to men overall. But what is interesting is how many men there were for every woman in the early 30s (almost 4-1 at age 30). Things tended to even out as the age range went up.
No wonder us poor **stards never hear back from anyone!

All of these statistics are interesting perhaps but have nothing to do with any of you meeting your one right sweetie.
Relax and enjoy the journey. | |

Posted: 5/23/2012 5:14:59 PM | Perhaps we need to arrange a mass migration.
Men to Sydney and women to everywhere else?
That could solve a lot of demographic problems.
Pity I don't want to move as Sydney is the most beuatiful place on the planet.
Strange that there is such a disparity. | |

Posted: 5/23/2012 5:32:19 PM | I never check the stats in my area.
Really not a concern.
The thing is...
it is the ratio of women
attractive to you...
and attracted to you...
that counts.
Simply doing a head count will not get you any closer
to who you want to be close to.
It's not a numbers game.
for some of the guys in here I gotta say:
you need to grow as a person to attract the girl you want.
As is, the ration could be a million to one in your favor
and you would still go without. | |

because they don’t have what I want.
I like your posts. I just wonder how you mean that POF does not have what you want. Is it because your not looking or the quality in the pond. I personally think the quality is great. But it's all relative. The grocery store and POF must have something you want, for you to return. Is it a general interest in relationships? | |

Thank you. :) I haven’t been looking here (or anywhere) for quite a while. When I was ‘active’ online it just became tedious. I hate the phony feelings of ‘dating’ strangers. I’m much more comfortable meeting men in less stressful situations.
I have friends on here, male and female. I come here for them, and maybe to make somebody laugh in the forums once in a while. :) | |

Posted: 5/23/2012 9:51:38 PM | | I guess I can't complain. I checked for women my age (57) within 10 and 25 miles of Toronto. There are 191 women vs 128 men within 10 miles and 339 women vs 225 men within 25 miles. | |

There are all sorts of threads stating that there are lots more women on here than men.I do not believe this.
The ratios at most online dating sites is 60% men and 40% woman. See proof here. http://www.edatereview.com/blog/2005/08/malefemale-ratio-of-online-dating.aspx
See proof of the over supply of single men. (10-15% in most cities ). http://www.halfsigma.com/2008/04/unmarried-mal-1.html
This causes many woman to have too many choices and hence develop spoiled, picky entitlement attitudes
Per social psychologist Jean Twenge.....
There are actually thousands more single young men than women in America. Between the ages of 25 and 39, for every 1 unmarried woman there are 1.2 unmarried men. Even when you look only between the ages of 35 and 39, there are still thousands more unmarried men. I can hear women immediately yelling that all of the good ones are taken, but the truth is that its single men who should be anxious and complaining. Men get lonely too, though we rarely see that addressed on TV or in the movies. (Generation Me, 113-114)
This is a perfect example of one of the many truths that the American media never tells us.
In the USA single men outnumber single women. (Possibly due to large influx of male immigrant workers) Many studies and statistics confirm this. Thus there is an imbalance that leaves a lot of men out and forces more competition among men.Compare this to poorer countries aborad where single women outnumber single men, giving men more choices and forcing more competition among women, thus giving men the upper hand and keeping women less spoiled, more feminine and beautiful.
I think you get a kick out of POF men just paying attention to you
In US -People you meet online are usually overweight and unattractive, or losers with dysfunctional personalities. Experiences are almost always negative. Attractive women use them just to enjoy the attention. Compare this to international oriented dating sites where it is common to meet quality sincere people online, including attractive females. There is no loser stigma associated with it. Experiences are usually positive, whether there is a "love connection" or not. | |
