At least when dealing with white women, 80 percent of women are attracted to 20 percent of men from a looks/aesthetic perspective. It applies to a lot of things, from what I've read, but I mean from a dating perspective. I wouldn't be surprised if this were the case for men in relation to women as well -- however, I'd likely bet on it being more of a 20/80 rule for men, as I can't tell you how many posts I see around here from cats are basically to the effect of, "If you suck dikk, make a good sandwich, have a fat ass, and give no backtalk, you might can get this ring."
Anyway, most of the potential women I've swiped through have a virtually identical set of physical attributes, height requirements (I have read on multiple occasions something to the effect of "6ft and over swipe right, under 6ft swipe left" in the bios), etc. Basically, if you're a more mature frat boy with a beard that likes the outdoors and has a dog, you should swim in new box.
As you may gather, in my experiences, more white women than black/latina women (who don't seem to be that devoted to a singular archetype, to their credit) use Tinder in my local area. At this point, I use it as a window into human psychology.
But yeah, to stay on the point, the majority of the women I've encountered on Tinder are usually on there saying the same stuff with the subliminal red flags ("Just living life, not here for hookups, no games or drama, etc.") while waiting for the aforementioned archetype to come through and toss that whole wannabe spiel into the bushes. It's a hookup app. Don't try to make shyt more than it is. If people did that more often (be clear and direct with intentions, no matter how casual), dating as a whole would be in better shape.
