Similar tendencies were found in a Chinese online dating website: Ong and Wang (2015) found that women with high income more often visited male profiles with even higher income and that such preferences do not exist in men. | Similar tendencies were found in a Chinese online dating website: Ong and Wang (2015) found that women with high income more often visited male profiles with even higher income and that such preferences do not exist in men. | ||
Another study of the dating platform Tinder by Neyt and collegues (2018) found that women like men's profiles with higher education status than they own ''twice as often'' and men's profiles with lower education status than their own only ''half as often''. Men, on the other hand, did not care about women's education status. | Another study of the dating platform Tinder by Neyt and collegues (2018) found that women like men's profiles with higher education status than they own ''twice as often'' and men's profiles with lower education status than their own only ''half as often''. Men, on the other hand, did not care about women's education status. Buss (2019) found: "Women’s income was correlated with the income that they wanted in an ideal mate (r = .31), his educational (r = .29) and professional status (r = .35), i.e. women with higher income expressed an even stronger preference for high-earning men than did women who were less financially successful." | ||
Similarly, a study by Fales et al. (2016) found 71% of women with income of more than $95,000 per year, i.e. women who are ''financially secured'' by their own income still felt it is essential their romantic partner has a steady income. Only 14% of men in that income bracket reported the same. | Similarly, a study by Fales et al.
