Interesting must be a strategy towards women selecting the top 10% only so men are not getting any matches. Getting matched before reading profiles saves tons time kind of makes sense. Then you can review and filter afterwards.

Why is that sad? Have you ever heard of speed dating? Similiar concept.

Well I've witnessed people not even looking much at the photos. Men do get matches, and I don't really agree with how factual or defined your initial statement is. I guess it's sad because of how arbitrary the selection is.

The selection is arbitrary because they're not the ones doing the selection, women are.

There's a well known study from OkCupid about this, women are way more selective so men only have very few matches a week (and some of those don't even respond) unless they try a lot.
