Yeah, the math on that is interesting. Either a huge proportion of women under 30 are in relationships with men over 30, or a lot of women under 30 are in relationships with men under 30 who are in simultaneous relationships with other women.

It's such a weird snapshot of data honestly. Can mean a lot of things

- large number of women staying celibate until their late 20s then starting dating with men in their early 30s.

- men dating multiple women.

- women dating other women.

- couples where women consider themselves in relationships and men consider themselves single.

- people just lying.

- a bad poll.

etc.

Based on the numbers from dating apps (only the top most attractive men being shown to and dated by women) it seems likely that it's women mostly having relations with those few men. And supposedly those men having simultaneous or just a rapid succession of relationships. This also seems to ring true to the experiences I've been told of by my male and female friends.
Or women under 30 are lying about being in relationship to not appear like losers.
