I know several women who are attractive and use online dating. Why is this? I mean, if I were an attractive woman, I would prefer going out to bars to meet guys. That would be way more fun, wouldn't feel as "forced".

Because some of us beauties don't get to go out that much and don't really like hanging out in bars for the purpose of getting hit on.

Why not? It's just another way to meet people.

Because I don't like bars or that scene. I preferred online dating to other mediums.

I think they can be, certainly.

But not for trolling for partners. For spending time with friends, doing trivia night, eating tavern food, playing pool, etc. sure. But, nah, not ever my first choice of venue for meeting prospective dates.

When I was single, I liked online because I could set the set the pace, decide if I wanted to respond to somebody in my own time, versus feel pressured into responding (one way or another) to getting hit on in a bar, and it's easier to lose somebody whose advances are unwanted online than it is in a bar. I also found that men were, in my experience, more receptive to being approached online than they were in person, and I was more comfortable approaching them online than in person. It also allowed me to widen my search with ease.
