I utilized a great amount of Fish, which presently is one of commonly utilized web web web site. I don’t have access to the Plenty of Fish database, I decided to use a count of the members who are Online Now to estimate the male:female ratio since I can’t actually count every male and female site member and then calculate the male:female ratios and. This is certainly pretty very easy to do with POF as it turns up demonstrably in the search outcome pages so when you do the search you simply select Sort by final browse and also the everybody who’s Online Now pops up first when you look at the outcomes.
The search ended up being done utilizing a central Toronto postal rule and had been done over four various nights at somewhat differing times, each of which appeared to exhibit a fairly pattern that is similar.
Regarding the age splits we decided to go with, they appear reasonable. Any selection of groupings has reached minimum notably arbitrary and might oftimes be criticized, but in short supply of doing a different count for every single and each age this appeared like a choice that is good.
The ratios ranged from a top of 3.43:1 (age 30-34) to a reduced of 0.86:1 (age 45-49), though varied from night to night for people age brackets. Overall, the info for the various times all reveal a comparable pattern with the intercourse ratio many highly skewed within the belated 20’s and early 30’s, being fairly even yet in the 40’s then increasing a little when you look at the 50’s.
Here’s the data that are actual graphs when it comes to four information sets.
Last but not least right right here’s a dining table showing the info for several four nights together and a chart regarding the male:female sex ratio by age bracket centered on this information.

[…] Erik – “Online Dating: Male Female Ratios” […]
Wow thanks for compiling this research that is great. The information is fairly interesting.
Seems about right … i might expect it really is many typically into the range that is 3:1.
However you should view effective ratio. – 50% of females on the website aren’t available available. – 50% of males are married/attached, perhaps maybe not solitary.
That produces the effective ratio well over 10:1 … if you add other understood facets such as for instance womens height requirement, age limits etc. will will indeed arrive at a powerful ratio of somewhere within 20:1 and 30:1.
Helping to make feeling if the mens are considered by you response/success rate on the webpage. —- a less strenuous means, is definitely determining the minimum demands for a person become at the least 50% effective on the internet site. For a person to accomplish this he will have to be at least an all around solid 7/10. That’s clearly skewed as it must be 5/10.
Without going thru the figures right right here, the effective price once again could be more than 10:1 and much more most likely into the 20-30:1 range. —- The rate that is effective a lot more of a good judgment thing anyhow. You’ll simply browse the forums here as well as other types of mens concerns regarding POF and effortlessly conclude either, the females on the webpage are simply just refusing to satisfy anybody, which will actually take place or even the web web site will be empty, no point being there … OR … your competition or ratio there needs to be quite quite big. —
I’ve simply deleted my profile using this absurd website. My concerns/perceptions will be that: 1. because its free it draws some people that have absolutely nothing safer to do, ergo the perpetual feminine timewasting. 2. because its free it really is overpopulated by insincere kinds. 3. truth has been mimicked online, where we inhabit communities where females are over-estimating their well worth, probably because of the ‘reality’ television shows they view and achieving their sycophantic ‘friends’ constantly telling them these are typically gorgeous. 4. hopeless males who’re ready to over-estimate their social standing and/or wealth are undermining womens rely upon the feeling, and of other guys on the website. 5. As Bill describes above, the ratios, though interesting research, suggest little whenever you consider impractical and deluded expectations that are female. (some, for instance a 39 12 months old girl, reported they might just accept communications from males from 25-35?)
I’ve utilized the website for approximately half a year and came across 5 girls that are different. We dated one of these brilliant for two months. I have to conclude POF is a waste of life when I consider the time/effort spent to get a phone number, against that of a night out with my best wing-man in town. Not 
long ago I talked to a buddy that is additionally on POF and I also would start thinking about a far better guy that is looking We, and their experience happens to be even even worse, per year with no times, simply communications from 50 yr old ladies.(he is 32)
You’ll also need to concern the integrity of a website, who’s marketing mantra is to bombard solitary dudes with adverts tempting them to get a russian, thai or whatever girl, from the scammer web web site.
Therefore, thankyou ‘Markus’, but I’ll pass, because to you at the helm, mankind is really a ship that is sinking.
[…] of Fish or POF, the ratio of males to ladies can get up to 3 to 1 based on this random test. Whenever you aspect in basic mismatch and fake accounts, most most likely females, the ratio […]
One major issue with POF is the fact that to obtain their ratio up they enable any such thing goes from females, nudes, underage, freely marketing for sex, false many years however if a bloke actions simply slightly out of line they delete his profile.
