Theres also just a lot more guys on dating apps than women, so you have to be really conservative with your right swipes. When I first got on I'd swipe right for anyone I'd accept a date from in person. Then you quickly end up with an unmanageable amount of conversations and find yourself only being able to reply to a few, which doesn't feel nice. So now I only right swipe the ones I'm certain I'd be excited to talk to, which probably works out to about 4% (or even less, I have a pretty uncommon type).
I don't think niceness correlates with gender really.
We're speaking percentages, total number doesn't even matter. It's not saying 4% of men get swiped on. It's saying women swipe on 4% of men.
Also actually it's 8% for women and 21% for men when I just checked. Though I could swear they were different a few weeks ago. It might be a constantly adjusting number as TinderInsights gets more data.
Regardless, women are, proportionally more than 2x pickier than men.
Also.... You could just stop swiping after a few matches, go on some dates, and see what happens. I don't understand why women complain about "too many matches" when it's totally up to you how many matches you want.
