Personally, when I see
I think that's normal. You irrationally find someone attractive and then come up with rational reasons to like them.

I wish people were more straightforward, like saying "Oh this person is very sexy, he/she makes my vagina/penis wet".

Something like that....

Some of the comments of that the thread where I found this are funny.

"i almost swiped left because your main pic was showing off your abs" - says every chick that i have ever matched with when my main profile pic was just a shot of my naked torso exposing my abs.

Several of my matches have very politely told me if I make any change to my profile it should be to remove my shirtless bathroom picture. They all say some variant of 'it's shallow' or 'kind of tacky,' which - ignoring the irony of a woman with nearly naked photos saying that one shirtless picture at the end of my profile is shallow - is clearly a big part of why they matched with me in the first place. I humored a couple of them and removed it and noticed my matches dropped

They really hate shirts.

We like to believe we have our urges in control, but I don't this is always the case. It's nice to think that we're above this and add some higher meaning to something as important as love.

I try to hold myself to a higher standard of decency and modesty.

Now I know that if I want Barchan to fall in love with me I need to form diagnol lines on my hips.

Highlighted for relevance. People don't like to think they're above it, they just want everyone else to think that

They certainly can't hurt your chances.

What if I just draw them with a marker?

I don't find anything hard to understand about the different number of views. The right photo attracted people who just wanted to see the sexy picture. There's a difference between just looking at a sexy picture and being truly interested.
The two left profiles look more like a guy looking for a serious relationship, and the right one looks like a guy who just wants something purely sexual. They will attract completely different kinds of viewers.

Just a fast conclusion: Tinder is just a hook-up app as there are many of them?

Question that might follow out of that conlcusion that can be useful for us on this forum:
what app doesn't focus on the hook-up thing and might be more going up to structural events?
(Unless you really want a hook-up of course

)

The most common sentence on women's profiles on tinder is "NO Hookup please!" or something like that.

That's like on more than 80% of the profiles.

Yes, but even if they don't want that, they can still just look at the pictures, that's how the right profile looks more popular :lol:

Btw, ladies, the many of you, please....stop pretending that you are the less shallow gender and the less visual - the "women are less visual in dating" is a total myth. This doesn't fool us guys anymore.

Apps like tinders has exposed this

Of course we're just as visual as men ! Personally, I'm not visual but most of my friends are, I know that I'm not the majority in my preferences.
It's just that it isn't because you want to look at a sexy picture that you're necessarily interested in doing something more than just looking.

.

It's good that you are honest about, but the "We are less visual than men" or 'we don't care about looks' is something you hear a lot.

Believe me, they want to date him too, don't be so naive

Dating him, I doubt it. The profile picture is sexy, not romantic.
Being FWB would be more likely, but many women are tempted but don't do it in order to not be judged negatively.
