There is fairly strong bias towards 'Middle-Eastern Female' going on here, who knew?
gamblingpoet
There is a question on OKC that states "I strongly not to date outside my race/culture". IIRC, 55% of white females agree with that. :(
Moosecock
We're all racist
thedoctorwhopostsdoctorwho
well I can't say, as a black woman, that I'm surprised
YourNotFunny
Honestly a lot more even spread then I was anticipating
bearplaybass
As an Asian male who like Black females, I should get on OKCupid.
AdonisInGlasses
Nobody replies to black females, but they reply to everyone.
IWannaBeTheVeryBest
It could be that less people are sending responses to black females, so even if it's the same number, it can be a higher percent.
pmmedemboobies
As a "Hispanic/Latin male", I get a lot of black female attention though...
smither1
So Black females have the best reply rate but they are the least replied to. That kinda sucks.
SomePeopleSayThatCucumbersTasteBetterPickled
poor black chicks :( they're a lot of fun guys, just letting ya know
Redbullie
But there are "hot asian sluts" looking for a good time in my area.

As a black woman I met my white bf on OKCupid, guess we beat the odds
Snigs
TL;Couldn't understand... were all pretty good matches for everybody but everyone is a racist and women don't respond to shit
kootiepatra
Or, women get flooded with messages, many of which are hostile and creepy, and have to be more selective who they respond to.

White people like white people. Whoda thunk?

White males get the most replies of all males where as middle eastern females dominate their charts.

how's it weighted?

As a black girl I am sad to see that no one likes the black girls :(
TheAntiheroOfCanton
As a white dude I am sad as well, but on the bright side you're beating me in every category but one... me responding to you :) lol
1Rogue
tl;dr White males reply the least, Black females reply the most, and for some reason everyone replies to middle-eastern females
KalmiaKamui
Uh, that's because middle eastern women are gorgeous.
blondie147
Because they're gorgeous.
notjeffreydahmer
Now think critically about what this means.
sandband
Middle Eastern women don't tend to date outside of their race. I think we should because most Middle Eastern men are jerks and selfish
blondie147
lol what? Middle Eastern men have always treated me the best. Especially the one man from Iran I dated.
SwagatroniusRexTheIV
I got with a Iranian burka derka before. Skin smooth as silk and body fine like presidential wine. Basically they're exotic and appealing.

Critical thinking time! White men have more options. Black women have the least options. Desirability reflecting cultural norms? Probably.

No one responds to black women and Asian women respond to no one, that's what I noticed.

So Indian dudes have big beef with Pacific Islander females? sup with that?

"Big beef"? It sounds like there's a Hindu joke in there somewhere.

Indians in this stat is negligible. And most of them are foreign-born, unlike other races.

Yup. Fijian Indian girls don't have the best reputation with Indian guys.

Women get a lot of responses. Black women get the fewest among women. Men gets fewer responses. White men gets the most. Black men the least

I've decided to feel more guilty than I already did about my privilege... while I message black women...
TwinkleTwinkleLittleShit
You better. Cause they won't text you.
TwinkleTwinkleLittleShit
Or... do they ? I still dont get the graphs...
notjeffreydahmer
Black females respond to everyone more than any other woman. They also get the least amount of responses from me across the board.
althanan
They do, more than any of the other listed demographics. Actually, it looks like they respond more in general by this information.
TwinkleTwinkleLittleShit
Yeah.... got it now ^^ I was reading it backwards.... ...
SashaTheGray
TIL white females dont like white males.

White females don't like anyone.

Ah, but they dislike them the least. On the other hand white males like white females less than all other males do.

What bothers people about what you said is that "society should give preference to literally anyone else." They shouldn't give it to anyone.

IHaveAHugeCrushOnTinaFey
First of all, if you're serious, I half-agree and think no one should have advantages and it sucks that one race does over any others. (1)

That's why I'm cool with programs like affirmative action or anything which promotes racial or gender awareness b/c it is sorely needed. (2)

IHaveAHugeCrushOnTinaFey
The reason for affirmative action is the people who hire pick the white person even if the other person is more qualified. GJ for ignorance.

At the same time, I'm not going to feel like shit because of the color of my skin b/c

Poor black women.. :(

It's okay. They don't need no man.
YouWillNotLikeThis
They get the same amount of replies as they reply to messages sent to them

1) Well its okcupid. Guys are supposed to be ignored much more than women.

2) I never get starters from women though, so I consider all these people hella lucky. o-o'
MrGreggle
Know how all the women complain about guys just saying "hey" or "wats up!?" Women are just as bad with that shit.

I always try to start conversation based on something on their profile but I just never get anything back x3x not even a hey xD

I'm "In a relationship" and I still get like 10 messages a week. Trust me, quantity is not quality on OKC.

dudeskis
itd be interesting to see weighted %. im sure males flood messages out and females are more exclusive, but there are always exceptions.
TheAntiheroOfCanton
on adult friend finder at least, women don't actually need to send messages out, 90% are men who flood messages out. 1/2
TheAntiheroOfCanton
there is actually an evolutionary basis for this, men are generally less sexually picky because they invest far less in producing children
roonmian
I bet there's something cultural in there, too. Gender roles and stereotypes and all that. Maybe even more significant than biology.
YouWillNotLikeThis
Maybe. I bet a female friend who would have the most likes on Tinder.

(2/2) they respond to more inquiries from men. That is to say...they take what they can get more often than other women do.
