It is something I talked about
viewtopic.php?f=6&t=275336
But due to recent threads, something to be clarified:
It is not that women from X and Y are « easier », because that’s not the right term, it is simply due to the weird fact that women from X and Y countries are far more likely to find me attractive (as first impression, based on looks, which is the initial gateway spark for everything else). While with local women I have the impression that I am just too « meh » for the vast majority.
So what « easier » is the initial attraction with women from these countries, but not those women themselves,
so that makes the whole dating experience feels easier: when someone likes you regardless of their nationality, things flow well. I guess that’s what se guys experienced too.

Like I remember when using with my real pic, in location US Houston: ALL matches were POC, no Whites at all - as if there’s no White population in that area.
When I switched to a fake profile (with attractive white dude pic), the matches were by far more representative of the area’s diversity.
I got zero matches in countries such as Ukraine and Turkey, while hundreds in countries like Thailand, Philippines, Morocco and Kenya. Come on, there’s a social phenomena in all this.
Were your profiles basically the same except for the pix being different? Both my exes lived kinda around Houston & they were both white but my 2nd felt kinda like an outsider there. My current is white as well but she tends prefer other races than white due to political type reasons which I relate to. I'm white & felt I had very little in common with white people where I used to live. I was very open to dating most anyone who seemed nice towards me but white people tended to treat me more negatively. I think I'd fit in better with Canadian whites than US southern whites. I'm like 6/8 hours from the Canadian border now & I fit in a bit better with the people here than where I used to live. Some of Cass's ancestors were from Canada a couple generations ago & we both wish we could move there. I kinda wonder if I woulda had better luck with dating where I used to live if I was a race other than white.

Back to the tinder thread, it wasn’t the only white dominated place I have tried (using GPS faker), also tried Canada’s major places there: same trend in all of them, whites got extinct when I used my real profile
. To be fair the « whitest » matches I ever got were Italians and Greek descendants and were very few still and they thought I am of their same ethnicity. Got few White matches in South Africa, I recall.
While with the fake account, well just check the screenshot in the old thread
. The difference is jaw dropping striking; my overall impression that POCs are often indifferent, while Whites prefer Whites.the bio of the fake account was even shorter and lazier with only 1 pic.

Maybe what you are seeing is women being attracted to perceived social status. I can try to elaborate at length on different scenarios but you probably know what I am generally talking about.
Here goes anyway:
This is an entirely different scenario than your case but I know as a straight male I care less about the social status of a migrant worker from Mexico than my female counterparts. I am not saying you are a migrant worker but something similar is obviously present in different scenarios around the world. I know I am not familiar with all of them.
It is kinda like when I was Mexico and the taxi driver asked me in the bar when he sitting next to me which I liked better “white” or “Mexican” and I told him it depended on which one was better looking. They thought that was a wonderful answer but I was just telling the truth for hat situation. I am paraphrasing the question because it was in Spanish which is not my language.
Women on the other hand might answer with something about being popular, well liked, well dressed, funny, kind, good with kids, gets along with the woman’s friends and family, etc…..
