    Just like with anything, if you put something interesting in your bio, women will use that as conversation starter.

      That is definitely not it. Looking at my bio which I wrote ages ago I’m actually kind of concerned I’m slightly doxing in myself the amount of information that’s in there.

      The problem is that there is a social convention that men start the conversation, so a lot of women just aren’t very good at openings, so they say “hi” and then I’ve basically got to carry the conversation. So what’s the point in the app then? Even if they just opened with “sorry I’m not very good at this yet” it would be a start, but noooo.

      No, they didn’t. I had plenty in my bio about hobbies, sports etc, very few mentioned it.
