It seemed to me that these aggressively heterosexual men weren’t even writing their profiles for women
I started using online dating sites in 2005, after I met a woman on a plane who told me she met her boyfriend on a site called The Nerve. She was attractive and cosmopolitan, and I thought that she might be on to something. Since I first visited online dating sites in a search for love and companionship (and continue to do so), I did not expect that my experiences would inform my research. But I’m a feminist philosopher. So when I started having a troubling sense while I looked through profiles, I took it seriously.
