A study which analyzed GINI coefficients in human relationships found that, “single men have a higher Gini coefficient (.536) than single women (.470). Thus, female sexual partners are more unequally distributed among single men than male sexual partners are among single women”<ref>https://contexts.org/blog/who-has-how-many-sexual-partners/</ref>.  A separate study of Tinder found that Tinder's GINI coefficient between the genders was on scale with the income inequality of sub-saharan African countries.
