A collection of some classic Lemmy memes for your enjoyment
Edit: because a few comments make me worry that some are taking this seriously - this meme is a play on the type of hopeless dating posts you might find in less healthy corners of the internet. The joke is a suggestion that the real problem is that one man in the image has some sort of arrow-attracting superpower.
Every single one of those girls is clearly an arrowhead-repeller. (Men have it so easy.)
Delete all the text and this diagram looks like:
One male medieval era soldier fighting for an oppressive patriarchy, in a battle where his fellow soldiers surrendered after realizing they are the baddies, surrounded by an army of women-only skilled archers fighting for egalitarianism.
He was just asking for it, look at the way his knees were dressed
The irony of the original graph is that if you draw the arrows that go the other way, they’re symmetrical.
Of course people are more attracted to attractive people. That’s literally why it’s called “being attractive”.
Dating apps are VEERY superficial. You are better off meeting people in real life.
ouch, my bones
Sperm retention 😭
The reverse reason is also that the pink blobs will receive arrows from all of the blue blobs. Blue blobs just reduce their market value that way.
It's like electrons.
This isn’t true at all. Everywhere you see average guys out there with girls. Yes, attractive people gain attention. But also, average people date.
Oh man, one could supply an entire army with the arrows shot at that guy, I'll tell you hwat.
Dating shouldn't be monetized. Even sending messages often requires a subscription. You'll also notice these dating app companies own several products, like the Match Group. They buy up competitors or spam out the same software under different names with a marketing campaign to try to get people to join. Then they restrict features and charge more to maintain their position. That's without even getting to all the data they collect and sale while also charging you a subscription. Just imagine talking to someone you want to date in real life and having a middle man come up and say, if you want to talk to them you need to give me $20 a month. All the "science" they use to connect people is just bullshit too.
