A recent study analyzed over 10,000 users on a Czech dating app, revealing a trend where men pursue women more desirable than themselves, while women tend to be more selective. The research found that men engage in “aspirational pursuit,” targeting women of higher desirability, while women tend to swipe slightly downward. However, successful matches often occur between users of similar desirability levels. The study also highlighted a common gender imbalance on the app, with women receiving significantly more attention than men. While the findings are based on a single app, they do align with previous research on online dating dynamics. (Studyfinds)
