The flaw is in the extreme imbalance of genders in dating sites, not in you.
explain
Quora.com says gender balances are near 50% for dating sites in terms of people ON them.
It's all marketing lies, dating sites probably include inactive female members in their statistics to balance things out.
That's in order to create an indirect Network effect
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_effect - if the perceived number of females is good then that would attract male members to pay for the dating site.
That's for the same reason why there are plenty of fake profiles portraying as women.
The old Okcupid had a side stat widget showing the online now numbers of women, and of men; the count of online men was always much higher - why else do you think they have removed it in the new template?
I will tell you why: because the board members of Okcupid probably agreed in a meeting that this widget is creating a negative network effect, and it's discouraging male members to stay or even to pay for premium; therefore they have decided to remove it altogether.
A feature like that on a popular site doesn't disappear just like that, without a business reason behind it.
Anyway, where is that source in Quora? Quora is just a discussion board.
