Summary

In this episode, I sit down with my good friend and entrepreneur, to discuss the dating app industry and how dating apps have changed the dating game in the past decade. Do dating apps make it easy to find love? Do they make it hard to find sex? Is dating apps a scam? Is there a difference between dating apps and real life dating? In this episode we discuss all of these questions and more.

00:00:00.000 do dating apps make it easy to find love no no makes it easy to find sex that's
00:00:09.060 it like no and who's responsible for the influx the day of dating apps the
00:00:16.800 science this let's go into the the data the science proves it so research has
00:00:21.620 been done that the way the dating apps work it is that 80 percent actually 90
00:00:29.120 percent of the women are choosing the top 10 to 20 percent of men on there and
00:00:33.500 it's usually based on looks height and money you heard 10 to 20 I heard 5% well
00:00:38.960 they like to they like to skew it I'm just going on what the numbers say like
00:00:44.540 if you if you look at the research if we if we really get into it we could
00:00:47.960 probably say the 5% that you're saying that's what I believe I actually think
00:00:51.140 it's lower than that and so the women are just swiping right swiping right swiping
00:00:57.020 right the majority of women I think the comparison was two to a hundred in terms
00:01:03.780 of people who are in women's who swipe right on a woman women men will swipe a
00:01:09.380 hundred and women will only swipe two so it's like it is women own these dating
00:01:14.600 apps and a lot of dating apps with fake women on there and some women who are on
00:01:18.320 there who look good they're actually just selling their their old their OF you
00:01:23.060 know I don't know if you can say the word here I don't know if it hurts it but
00:01:25.900 like their OF or they're saying go to my Instagram or go to my OF or hit me up on
00:01:30.820 here or my cash app is here so even the women who are swiping right there's a lot
00:01:35.160 of scamming and all of these other things and a lot of men are genuinely
00:01:38.500 looking for love and again from 18 to 30 them there is three times the number of
00:01:43.960 men who are virgins and sexless versus women so women own these dating apps and
00:01:49.060 we're responsible for the men that we're choosing we're not giving average men a
00:01:53.200 chance because we're picking things on vanity and and things that don't have
00:01:58.120 lasting value they dating apps are for people who want to have sex as you said
00:02:02.460 dating apps and us not necessarily for people who want to find love I would say
00:02:07.780 that love is actually harder to find in this day and age anyway anywhere that you
00:02:11.620 go whether it be in a club whether it be a bar whether you consider Instagram a
00:02:16.660 dating app and would you say the same thing for Instagram I would I would I
00:02:21.200 know that when I actually remember I actually know that when I was single I
00:02:24.640 was on Instagram and someone DM to me and within three hours I was at their house
00:02:29.620 oh wow so yeah I think it's better for women who are looking who are looking for
00:02:35.560 better quality because if to me Instagram what his is I don't not on dating apps at
00:02:41.700 all that has brought me because people because I'm actually putting out quality
00:02:44.820 content on there so guys are seeing my mind not just a picture of me looking
00:02:48.660 cute and just some caption that I decided to write but they're hearing their mind
00:02:52.920 hearing the quality I'm able to go and see what they're talking about their
00:02:55.860 friends who they actually are and you can actually I think Instagram is a
00:02:59.520 better place to vet if you really want to and I'm getting oh hey I mean the
00:03:05.760 quality is is is is amazing if in my opinion as a woman who's looking to be a
00:03:10.860 man I want to yeah I want to hear from a business perspective the majority of
00:03:15.360 women are not using a business perspective I want to hear for the
00:03:19.480 average chick not a girl that's got her butt all over Instagram just like
00:03:23.520 normal pictures nothing crazy would you say that Instagram is a good way to
00:03:27.300 meet people for women I think the best way you know the best way to meet a
00:03:34.840 person is out in the real life we need to get out in front of these ones and
00:03:39.540 zeros and get out into the real world and just start to meet people here's the
00:03:44.460 thing is that from a dating app perspective it removes being able to
00:03:47.860 talk to women it it it it becomes completely vanity it becomes completely how
00:03:53.420 good your photographer was it comes completely your angles and this and that
00:03:57.960 yo listen at the end of the day women you want to meet good guys and guys you
00:04:03.360 want to meet good girls you got to do it in real life yes you know so much of this
00:04:06.840 digital ecosystem I love technology at the end of the day I utilize technology
00:04:11.040 technology has allowed me to quit my nine-to-five I will forever utilize
00:04:14.880 technology but I got to understand when does it benefit me and then when does it
00:04:19.020 not and I think like a lot of younger people today don't understand it because
00:04:22.800 they only have seen it with technology here I grew up when internet was not even a
00:04:28.140 thing like I've seen life before internet and then I see it after internet and at the
00:04:33.540 end of the day listen women gonna fall in love with what they hear not
00:04:36.440 necessarily what they see so of course two women per a hundred is going to swipe
00:04:41.580 right to left of course because the visual is not as important I think is
00:04:47.760 different because let's just say all of us all of us in here we've met through
00:04:52.980 digital we threat through internet like I would not know pearl if it was not for
00:04:57.480 the internet I would not know you I would not know Maggie I would not sorry Garvey but
00:05:02.940 I'm saying there are men that I have met that I'm able to average men you're not
00:05:10.420 meeting average men you're meeting above average men yeah so let's talk about not
00:05:14.780 the outliers let's talk about the majority the majority of people the majority of
00:05:19.280 people dating apps do not benefit real-life in-person conversation Instagram I don't
00:05:27.300 think I'm just my dad is on there okay from the men's point of view do you guys
00:05:35.820 you guys DM a girl on Instagram would you be taking her seriously or is that more
00:05:40.200 for a casual because because sorry to answer but to go back to what MTR was
00:05:45.300 saying is that most men most younger men are socially awkward because myself maybe
00:05:50.300 Melanie maybe MTR yeah they don't have to talk to women they but we grew up in a time
00:05:55.020 before the internet so we could we could socialize with people you know and it
00:05:58.720 wasn't a thing we could talk face to face we could start up conversations but
00:06:01.900 generally the men of today the reason why I'm asking about you I'm asking about
00:06:06.500 you personally no I know you're in a relationship but when you were single
00:06:09.960 would I take it if you DM'd a girl on Instagram was that for casual or for
00:06:14.280 serious it depends on the mindset that I was in if I there was a time when I was so
00:06:18.920 you would do both single yeah I would do both so you could hypothetically for you
00:06:23.640 good good Avenue yeah okay same thing yeah so by yes by my specific results now
00:06:31.820 you know throughout my life I had not been looking for a relations been with business
00:06:36.140 colleges I've been in like a whole cold-blooded relationship where I was like
00:06:39.320 okay that's my girlfriend and she was like that's my boyfriend so generally when I
00:06:43.920 hit up women on Instagram it is for not relationship now but at the same time
00:06:51.780 though it don't mean that like into the future if I was to do that in the future
00:06:54.980 it would just be vetted specifically but not relationship but it to me at the end
00:07:00.300 of the day women need to understand this if a guy is not ready he's not ready yeah
00:07:03.900 if a guy is not ready he is not ready so so during my periods of not ready if I hit you
00:07:10.040 out what's up okay so Instagram it's either or I'm just curious either or I
00:07:16.580 would say it depends oh my gosh that's why I said Instagram is also used more than
00:07:22.580 just date you know a dating app is just for relationship sex it's about romantic
00:07:27.740 interactions Instagram it could be business it can be like you're showing
00:07:31.700 your family your I just really want to hear from the three guys okay if you go
00:07:40.460 over the majority of what people use Instagram for it is not a good place to
00:07:44.240 find love and stop hearing right there I asked for you yeah for me I know I
00:07:49.280 answered for me period okay yeah I was gonna say I'm only 25 but I remember
00:07:55.700 making my first Instagram when I come out and the first thing that come to mind
00:07:58.580 was I wonder how many girls I can talk to you now
00:08:01.700 straight away it was just a casual there was nothing maybe because I was
00:08:05.300 younger I'm not too sure about how I would be now if I was single maybe if I
00:08:08.660 was even now I think it'd only be casual for me I don't think you could actually
00:08:13.280 go onto a dating app and try to find love because even at the point now I was
00:08:16.400 speaking to my single friends now and I've said you know how is your love life
00:08:20.600 going well you was out the other night how did that go and he went oh I went to
00:08:23.180 speak to a girl when I had that go and he went she freaked out what do you mean she
00:08:26.240 freaked out she goes well because I approached her it's almost got to the
00:08:29.720 point now where dating apps have destroyed the interaction with women are
00:08:34.760 now when a man approaching who's this creep and they freak out they really do
00:08:38.540 it I think maybe I could be wrong but I think men are more open to trying to
00:08:43.160 speak to women in public whereas I don't think women are anymore as many of you
00:08:49.220 know I was just banned on tik-tok and we are demonetized on a daily basis on this
