Asian women win online dating global competition

Not surprisingly,
Asian women win online-dating global competition (according to a scientific study by Kevin Lewis, from Harvard):
http://www.nydailynews.com/life-style/on...-1.1507034
"As a graduate student at Harvard University, sociologist Kevin Lewis began working with a data set that tracked something that scientists had never really been able to systematically study: the earliest stages of courtship. By studying interactions in online dating, he could probe human flirtation in its natural environment in unprecedented detail. Who initiates the interaction? Who reciprocates? What happens next?"

I have to say, the two results I found most interesting are Asian men responding highest to latina women and black women responding lowest to white men. I would not have guessed either. Neither would I have guessed that latina women are pickier than white women. Also, considering the thirstiness of your typical male online dater, it's amazing that any women's response rate would be higher than a male's lowest response rate.
I would have preferred the study use some level of correspondence rather than just initial response rates (like a back and forth of at least five responses) and then record those rates. Kind of eliminates the noise from the male end, where guys throw shit against a wall to see what sticks, and the female end where chicks approach guys way out of their league.

The chart makes complete sense.
Women chase controllable men with money (westerners), men chase the easy attractive pussy (Luv U Long Time).
Fascinating, but not really news.

I'm not surprised that the Asian girls won. Two reasons- 1) Asian girls less a part of global obesity epidemic. 2) Asian girls age much better. When the girls are as hot at 31 as 21 then you have a bigger pool of attractive girls.

There's a certain novelty factor to dating outside of your race that gives women a +1 to +2 point bump in attractiveness.
There is definitely something to this. I notice that when guys date specifically outside their race, and I do, they tend to fetishize. If a woman checks certain boxes, for example the super-ass on a Black girl or super spinner skinniness on an Asian, then other flaws are ignored. I find myself forgiving Kate Upton's square, lifeless ass because she's a cute blonde with a great rack.
Brazilian women are often forgiven a butter face because of a great shape and skin tone. Ukrainians bad teeth/skin because they're fair and slim. Russians and Asians are almost devoid of ass. And so on. When people focus heavily on their own little fetish they often fail to see the bigger picture.

A sample size of 126k comes to 0.002% of the global population – this isn’t representative at all.
It is actually a
very big and good sample size. Polling more than 125,000 people, it's actually huge.
Polls you read about in the papers, usually include far less people in their samples!!
(But you are right on one thing, it seems to only be data taken from US users.)
What strikes me : White men answering more to Asian women online, than to White women.
And it means 2 things, I think :
1- Bitch shields are so high in White women, that White men loose hope and with them.
2- Age Gap Acceptance : any man over 35 or say, 38, is basically screwed as to dating beautiful young White women. So they turn to the more tolerant, cute Asian women.

White women in Europe are so different from white American women, it's not even funny. They're not even from the same planet in terms of entitlement, bitchy attitude and cunty outrage over petty topics.

This is a good sample size that would represent the average "dating market size" for a City of a million people. Your basically working in a field in numbers around 100k for both when and competition.
The only thing that might skew this is if the research guy didn't go on far away from the tree and got Data of the Boston / Cambridge area that might as we'll be a Asian Free Trade Zone set up by the Chinese.
Nothing really surprises me here, maybe except that high message rate of Black Men to Asian women. I like Asian girls but many of my brothers don't, period, and will always message a Latina girl before an Asian girl.
The black American women will forever be alone. How the hell do you have the lowest/highest response rates to Black men? That means your picky, top choosy, and have to high of expectations. The fat black bitches whom have the balls to message my troll online profiles are a joke. Precious looking girls whom send pics in messages and I reply with "not my type" with the quickness and they get snarky as fuck back.
Back to Asian girls, for what this study is worth, they are the new white girls. I've been to trying to tell my homies this for a long time now. NA White girl stock has fallen fast, I only go after them because of the abundance of them but my tastes have sailed away from that island a long time ago.
