In the digital dating era, finding a meaningful relationship behind the screen of your smartphone can be an undoubtedly daunting task. With the overwhelming plethora of applications and photographs, men and women have to siphon through at any given time it is particularly difficult to make a solid impression. In the quest to garner attraction from the opposite sex, many women in this generation have fallen victim to the horrible disease that is being basic as f*ck, and quite frankly, the madness needs to stop.
But let's be real, there is no such thing as being a basic b*tch. It's okay to like things that other girls like, because others girls are awesome. But ladies, if you're interested in seeing how men view it (as if their opinion matters) we teamed up with dating blog The Single Society and interviewed a pool of guys to find out what pictures drive men crazy (and not in a good way) when searching for love on the interwebs.
Oh, you do yoga? Great. Put it in your interests, and replace this with a clear and recent picture in which someone can actually see what you look like.
Perhaps these types of photographs would be somewhat interesting if they weren't so obnoxiously prevalent. For a guy, it seems like every girl in the digital dating world has a picture cuddling a Siberian tiger, African Bush elephant, or a god damn Woolly Mammoth. Besides the fact that these animals are cruelly beaten and sedated solely for your pleasure (or likes on Instagram), it's basic AF.
Why? Why are these even a thing? A wise man once said, "It's like you literally got into your car and thought, 'Damn, I look so good today, I better let everyone know before I put this thing into gear and head off to my shift at the Olive Garden." To be fair, guys are undoubtedly guilty of this offense as well and will be held to the same standard.
Ahhh the ubiquitous bathroom selfie. Oftentimes accompanied by a sexy outfit and in most cases, a duck face. Ladies, if you are looking for a gentleman who will cherish and respect you for your mind and not just your body, you need to stop posting these pics. It attracts the wrong kind of guys because all they can see is 'I am a hoe, and I want the D.'
Include these in your profiles all you want, but prepare yourself to be approached by dozens of sleaze bags just trying to hit it and quit it.
OK. You have a '#squad.' If a guy cannot figure out which one you are in a group picture they will automatically assume you are the least attractive one and give you the ol' left swipe.
Oh, how cute! You have doggy ears! Just like every other basic b*tch on the planet. Also, the flower crown is played out. The big misty-eyed fairy with a flawless complexion is clearly not going to be an accurate depiction as to what someone will see in person. Under-promise and over-deliver. Off with the filters.
