Initial results from the dating app deal-breaker survey.
An infographic with some basic descriptives: deal-breakers for men.
I have two ways of scoring the items: in this survey I asked people to indicate their willingness to reject a profile on a scale of 1 to 5, with five being an absolute certain rejection.
These figures are the percentage of men who gave the item a 5, or absolute rejection:
These are also absolute rejection, the % of 5's.
Septum piercings, single moms, and listed pronouns were relatively high up there.
Piercings in general only had a 4.55% absolute rejection, for comparison.
Here I have items categorized by "high score," so totalling up the rating given across participants and presenting them as a percentage of a maximum total.
Here are some of the low scores: what men didn't care about very much.
Alcohol use doesn't seem to matter much (unlike drugs and tobacco).
The two religion items (not being a Christian and alternative spiritual beliefs) also didn't result in much rejection.
The only two items across the entire survey that got over 50% absolute rejection were the OF and Venmo questions.
Even items like "woman has a disorderly appearance" only got 10% of men who said they would absolutely swipe left.
Good news for messy girls!
I haven't even looked at the female data yet, so - coming soon.
