dating on dating apps (I think)
men sends messages or tries to match with as many people as possible to increase their chances of talking to someone.
women receives a lot of messages/​potential matches so they get more selective.
which in turns creates less matches per message sent for men, which reacts by sending more messages
this is from what I read and from my experience and experience of people I talked to.
also, it looks like there is still a big heterosexual dynamics in this case (this might not apply to all dating apps but I guess it must apply to the big ones).
I stayed a big vague in the description since I have seen different reasons for every of those points (that are not necessarily contradicting each other though: they could be additive)
