A bodybuilding enthusiast named GermanLifter decided to conduct a social experiment to see how much easier life was for attractive dudes.

He created a Tinder profile using pics of the guy from the ”Call me Maybe?" music video. The model has an ideal body type, and is well, a gorgeous male model.

Here's the full reel of photos used on the profile:

What link?

 

[Poor GRIMES]

This doesn't apply to just women btw

 

[Dylan]

There's no link.

 

[Breads]

Gonna need a link breh.

 

[entremet]

Added. Sorry.

 

[Zombine]

I guess that's why life is so easy for me.

 

[Any Questions]

Thread to nowhere

 

[entremet]

There's also a selection bias at play.

Tinder isn't the street corner. It's a place where people go to hook up.

 

[stuminus3]

Yes, this is how humans work.

Way to rub it in.

 

[GrizzleBoy]

Uuhhhhh.

 

[Qasiel]

Before OP posted link to the news site I found the original thread here on bodybuilding.com's forum and it looks like it was from back in 2014.

 

[Dylan]

These were my favourites:

The spirit of forgiveness is strong in these girls.

pics pls .

 

[Herr Schwarz]

No spicy quotes, nothing?

I feel like if an Op thread cant create discussion without the necessity of opening some other website then it needs more work.

 

[Any Questions]

He did get away with murder to be fair. Still if a Playboy bunny went straight into the rude stuff i wouldn't say no.

However i would think set up

 

[stuminus3]

pics pls .

I would do that but I'm busy playing Zelda on my Switch.

It's in the link. People are posting them any lol but I wanted to keep it SFW.

 

[Thorgal]

nothing proving it is the same guy.

#FAKENEWS .

 

[Zombine]

pics pls .

 

[Mesousa]

This is pretty much common knowledge lol. A guy is only creepy to a woman if she finds him unattractive.

 

[Escape Goat]

Guy discovers women get horny. Brilliant.

 

[Zakalwe]

Results were obvious before the experiment was made. It's a shame, but we're generally quite shallow creatures and strong physical beauty is very alluring.

 

[SomedayTheFire]

Humans are humans, news at 11.

 

[Mistah]

Girls are actually like this a lot :/ was kinda weird


But honestly screenshots from 2014? Wtf

 

[outunderthestars]

To be fair, he wasn't "creepy" for very long before pivoting to a very safe date request of coffee.

Socially awkward GAF has elevated "creepy" to an art....

 

[Moff]

This doesn't apply to just women btw

no and I can't imagine anyone ever thought that. But it's brought up sometimes when people argue that women only condemn creepy behavior when they don't find someone attractive.

but yes, obviously more attractive people have it easier in life and get away with a lot more, that's hardly breaking news.

 

[DeSo]

This would work out the same for both sexes, we're all vain as fuck

 

[Siegcram]

Going for the "No Shit Sherlock"-Award, OP?

 

[WrenchNinja]

Who goes on tinder not being interested in hooking up

Was she there for a serious relationship

 

[GrizzleBoy]

If only dating was as simple as "sex or coffee, pick one".

 

[MsKrisp]

This stereotype needs to end.

Legit laughed

 

[HarryKS]

Do not reveal the secret, wait no, does not matter.

 

[Poor GRIMES]

i mean you have mesousa saying exactly that

 

[derder]

And if an attractive female sent that sort of message?

I appreciate the examples of how easy it was, but there's a whole industry around fake woman profiles which effectively say the same thing.

Maybe she wanted to meet the guy first and make sure he's not incredibly weird or lying about his picture?

The comments does not disappoint.

 

[fireflame]

Mankind is despicable, nothing new.

 

[Massive Duck. C.M.]

I am surprised that people looking to fuck each other casually would give an attractive profile pic more leeway

Shocked I tells you

Yeah. Ashley Madison was mostly fake profiles, at least for Women looking for Men.

Most dating sites are lopsided like this.

 

[The Salt Life]

Geezus I feel bad for single people just looking for a girlfriend, that has to be demoralizing to read.

"Let's fuck"
"I don't think so"
"Coffee?"
"OK!"

Like what?!?

 

[Fudgepuppy]

This is just psychology at play. You're more than willing to look past creepiness if the person saying those things, is a beautiful model that for some reason wants to spend time with you.

 

[Dylan]

In my experience, the vast majority of females on Tinder are not there for hookups.

 

[Diancecht]

Fucking everyone is a social experimenter now. No need to be sociologist. If you are 20 and good looking, hit the streets, record your sexual harrasment and call it an experiment! It's so easy guys!

Extreme example in the OP, but I know a few long term couples who met on Tinder.

But yeah, Tinder is also a hookup market too. I would say it's much easier to meet people in the internet age, especially in big cities.
