Agreed. I've not observed anyone - male or female - approaching strangers in bars. Instead, most people go in groups; the group enters the bar, socializes together, and leaves the bar together. Couples enter the bar together, socialize together, leave together. Loners enter the bar alone, stay alone, and leave alone.

In my experience, very limited in the past 10yrs now, but it appears to remain true. The above is about 50/50 accurate. If groups go to the bar and someone has the intention for a hook up, they will make it happen. If not, they don't.
10 yrs ago, one of my best friends met her now husband at a bar. She and I had gone together that night, he and his friends had gone together that night. Worlds collided, and we all went home with our respective groups once the night was over - but, neither were looking to get laid that particular night. This same friend took me out last night along with another one of our high school friends. The other girl and I are single, and I suspect there was an underlying idea to get at least one of us action last night. And, we were approached by a group of guys that were looking for a one night stand. The opportunity was there. I was not interested and I made that clear. There was a guy that our friend was interested, but the group was asked to leave the bar before numbers could get exchanged. My prior bar experience dates back 10 yrs ago when I was single, and I was approached about 50% of the time by someone looking for a one nighter regardless of the size of my group.
