Tinder, but for everyone, not just single mums.

Or less sarcastically, a dating site that actually works, where it doesn't revert to the whole game theory optimum strategy leading to the worst result overall.

Sadly this is more an evolutionary biology problem than technical or social.

Women are more valuable than men according to men (and women know this both consciously and biologically), hence it doenst matter what algorithm you use to match, 80 of of women prefer the top 20% of men

So how important are a woman's looks to you? If it was a site that suggested dates to you based purely on things like shared values, interests, etc., would you still want to use it?
