INDEPENDENT.CO.UK – June 27 – According to an Australian study of ~41K dating site users, women under 40 are more particular when seeking a partner online than men, who become more picky with age. The study, published in Psychological Science, saw researchers at Australia's Queensland University of Technology look at users of all ages, from 18 to 80. Women are more specific about what they're looking for between the ages of 18 and 30, their peak fertility years. Between these ages, women were found to be looking for partners with either the same level of education as themselves or higher. Meanwhile, men were found to be less likely to be as particular until they’re over the age of 40, at which age they were shown to become pickier than women.
