Asian Guy, Tinder, and BDP

Results:

I tested it two ways (test A and B), with both tests consisting of me selectively swiping, and test A done in a medium size city and test B done in a small city. Under test A, as recommended by 0111110, I did a non-erect bulge in mid gray sweatpants as my main profile picture. I didn’t keep track of exact numbers, but I think I got more than 3x the matches compared to the control. However, I realized about a week into it, people probably thought I had an erection, which is not what I was going for. I think this was because my dick was sort of tucked to the left and was more open to interpretation. As a result, I took that picture down and tested B, as recommended by conejita. Test B consisted of normal profile pictures with the approximated ‘I break stereotypes’ phrase at the top of my profile summary. I got about 2x the matches, maybe a little less.

A few observations, granted based on a small, isolated amount of data. First, test A led to a match where I hooked up the day I messaged her. She was Asian. The other girls were white and black. Further, since I found a hookup buddy, I didn’t feel the necessity to message my other matches and so don’t know what their response rates would be. Finally, I want to say that the girls from A looked more promiscuous than B (no offense intended), but I can’t draw that conclusion based upon the sample size.

Second, test B yielded less results, but from all white and black women. Test B yielded more women who I would describe as more wholesome looking. Less than half of individuals from B responded to my messages. However, it is difficult to compare response rates because the first girl I messaged in A caught my full attention right away.

As a whole, I would say that my characterizations of the different groups were unsurprising. Finally, what I can say with the most confidence is that, based upon similar swiping habits, I was able to boost my matches significantly as compared to the control.

Also, this is unscientific as fuck, but I tried so gold star.
