Men on dating sites:
Posting one of the few photos of themselves they have
Posting a photo they have where they're actually happy and feeling a sense of accomplishment

Only to be ignored by any actual women. Guaranteed to be accosted by bots and time wasting sex workers.

I don't know how there are any straight men left on dating sites other than the "top 10%," of course.

I've never taken a selfie but I do have some fish pics

It’s called Plenty of Fish! I thought it was a fishing site?!

[-] MasterNerd@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago

It's got plenty of phishing alright

Living in the Midwest, this is also super common on women's dating profiles. I'd estimate probably more than 1 out of every 10 has a fish

I think someone is really fishing for compliments here.

This smells a little bit fishy.

[-] MargotRobbie@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I can neither confirm nor deny the rumor that Ryan Gosling's trailer on set always smelled of fish.

The last time I made anything like a profile for tinder was when I made one for PoF back in the before times, in the long-long ago, the year 2007. I didn't have fish pictures, but I did have a picture of me riding a unicycle.

It was more effective than I expected.

It's called plenty of fish for a reason, you're supposed to post pictures with fish.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I think I'd enjoy that.

[-] balderdash9@lemmy.zip 16 points 1 year ago

You gotta understand just how few pictures men have of themselves. Most of us aren't randomly taking selfies; a lot of us don't even have pictures of us with our friends.

It is customary among her people that the man bring a leg of a lingta to the first courtship dinner. Make sure it's fresh, as if you had just killed it. Then use the leg to sweep aside everything on the table and declare in a loud voice, "I have brought you this! From this day, I wish to provide food for you and your House! All I ask is to share your company and do honor to your name!"

quickly jots down notes, “go fishing… catch fish… show to barbie.” got it, now what? I’m recently single after a long marriage, HOW DO I ATRACT WOMEN?11!?!

[-] averagedrunk@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

You have women friends? Have them make your dating profile if you want to date online. Seriously. They'll make you sound awesome while telling the truth. Chances are at least one of them is good at taking pictures.

[-] Stupidmanager@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Thanks. The comment was for comedic effect, but when I’m ready to date I’ll use this advice.

YOOOO LOOK AT DIS BARBIE! I found these fishes inside the car

[-] squiblet@kbin.social 5 points 1 year ago

I know a fair amount of girls from Minnesota and Oregon who would like that because they're into fishing themselves. They grew up fishing with their fathers.

[-] lseif@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

well if it would work for me it should work for women, right?

[-] sour@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Bears love men who fish, they're trying to attract bears.
