There are a couple of advantages to date/have relationship with a women in her late 40s early 50s: many of us still look great and much younger. AND...We have grown children! lol
"2/3 of male messages go to the top 1/3 of women", so if you're a cute or "average"-looking woman, the men responding to you are going to be in the bottom 1/3rd of men (i.e., the "ugliest").
I wonder if this is why men complain so much about not finding dates? If this data is correct, it seems the majority of them are going after women who are "out of their league" and not even trying for "cute" or "average" women.
The article also discusses how men and women respond and send messages based on perceived attractiveness.
It's the internet - reality goes out the window. It takes almost no nerve at all to send a message to the hottest looking thing on plenty of whales or OK-u-bid. In real life only a small fraction of those men would have the guts to approach her.

[1]Sadly older women are deemed ugly as they age which is a shame. I have no doubt it's one of the reasons I failed with online dating because I am seeking a man like me, but the men like me are seeking younger pretty women.[2]Meanwhile the guys mostly contacting me were the ones most women don't want.
Point #1 suggests subjectivity, cultural indoctrination, superficial values, and injustice, correct?
Point #2 suggests objectivity, truth, and the wisdom of women and society, correct?
Perhaps contra to feminist rhetoric and current cultural rhetoric where every girl born is a princess and beautiful and no male out of "her league," perhaps as women age there are men "out of their league"? Is that possible?
Or is it possible no one is out of anyone's league?
I don't note women find men attractive if one or more other women like said man. I mentioned this before, about a woman that paid zero attention to me until she saw a very attractive woman getting in my car, then all of a sudden she was eyeballing me.
I do think like this article suggests that looks are one of the most important things. Money too. Social status too.

Oh, is that what's happening? lol I always get messages from men who I don't really find attractive, but I don't find the majority of men on the site in my area to be attractive either.
I just came across a guy who I did find attractive a few minutes ago, but I was too chicken to send him a message so I just sent him a 4-star rating instead so he'll be notified that I'm interested and will hopefully just send a message to me.
My experience with online dating is women are looking for a guy that owns a bank. Money will make women overlook lots of things they would usually reject.

You could've just said "My experience with dating .." and you'd be right.

Great post, particularly the bolded part.

I hate online dating.
Yours was a good move. I had limited experience in online dating, but I do like it better when a woman gives me a signal that she's interested, and then I make the first move.

Of course there are both men and women out of the opposite sex's league (same sex too but am concentrating on opposite sex since I am not gay)but the reality is too many men seem to think they can be fat, ugly and poor and still get someone hot and young. Oh sure a man who is handsome or wealthy will be able to attract much better quality women than a man not like that but often lesser quality men think they deserve what the better quality men does. I'm sure women do this as well but the majority of women I know want a man like them in respect to pay, looks etc.
Attractive women are EVERYWHERE. They are a dime a dozen. Good hardworking marriage minded men are not. A man's value increases with age. A woman's looks will decrease. No such thing as a woman being "OUT OF HIS LEAGUE". Wish more guys would grow some balls and quit kissing asses of every decent looking woman they see. Maybe some of these ladies would start to wake up and realize that their looks don't qualify them for "best woman" status.
Hell yes! This is what ive been saying for the longest time!
