Recently online dating has been in the news and with that in mind, they found out how many women are using online dating.

While Ashley Madison might not have a lot of women users, a Pew Research Center survey suggests that millions of women do use online dating sites.

The survey found that 9 percent of women are looking for love online, which I guess is a huge number and just a bit lower than the 13 percent of guys who are on the site.

Men seem to be first initiator's, which isn't uncommon. Men also view a ton more profiles then women. No surprise there either.

But clearly, women are out there in the online dating world. And, this survey didn’t even address all the location-based matchmaking apps like Tinder and Hinge. (Qz)
