They're only getting bad swipes.
This is true, because actually, when I think about the particular friend I was thinking of, I asked to see her Tinder or whatever app it was many years ago. And I was like, oh, my God. I... Jesus Christ, I wish I had this many swipes. Because as a guy, I mean, I must have had Tinder for about a month back in 2000. When I was 20, I'm going to say 23, 24, I couldn't get swipes.

And if I got some, listen, it wasn't anything to write home about. It was very, very rare. But when I looked at her Tinder that she was complaining about, she had hundreds of men. But she just didn't like any of them.

Okay, so I was thinking about the attraction features of a woman that we talked about earlier. I know that if I'm a guy and I'm trying to have more success on the apps, on social media, what I need to do is I need to pull up in my Lamborghini, I need to hit the gym, I need to signal my quality in an authentic way that can't be disproven.

And if I'm a woman, therefore, I need to be showing my hip ratio?

Okay.
Because I'm thinking about this graph that was in your book, which shows how much sex we're having and how much porn we're watching. And very simply, it shows that we're having less sex and we're watching more porn. And it's quite a considerable drop between 2006 and 2012. It said a percentage of 18 to 25 year olds who had had sex or watched porn within the last year.

And about 80% of 18 to 25 year olds had had sex in the last year. And now it's getting down nearer to 65, 70%.
