The whole “happiness limited by shyness/social awkwardness which results in no dates” stereotype does not apply to many people here.
How’s that?
Because some people are in happy long term relationships, where picking new people up or dating new people are not very important.
There was a poll a while back, I seem to recall that most LWers were single males in their twenties.
There may have been a demographic shift since.
I think Violet meant “there are many people to whom it doesn’t apply’, not “there are not many people to whom it applies”.
I was having trouble figuring out which of those two parsings was the intended one.
“there are many people to whom it doesn’t apply”.
Sorry for the confusion, english is not my first language so sometimes my sentence structures will be confusing.
If the site takes an implicit almost-every-of-us-is-a-single-het-man then it will probably self-select into that direction.
