Two math nerds from Harvard got the brilliant idea to launch an online dating site that finds matches based on quizzes given to users. OkCupid now has 3.5 million users and billions of data points, which the co-founders use to uncover fascinating patterns about human behavior.

Here's one: They discovered that the more men disagree about a woman’s looks the more they end up liking her.

Take two random women, equally rated as good-looking. Well what they noticed is that one of these women might receive 90 messages in a month where as the other only receives 30. Why?

The math revealed that those women who received the most messages had more variation in individual ratings of her looks. Meaning, some men would rate her as ugly and other men would rate that same woman as super hot.

It is the wide variation in ratings that is correlated to receiving nearly triple the number of messages than a woman who is considered universally cute.  

OkCupid’s math lords theorize that maybe men think they have a better chance with the more extremely rated woman, since there is something about her that is only attractive to some men, hence less competition. Maybe. Whatever the reason, the ultimate advice to single women: Embrace that unique trait. It’s what is going to get you the attention.

两位哈佛大学的数学宅一拍脑门创建了在线约会网站，通过用户提交的测试答案来给他们匹配对象。这家名为OkCupid的网站拥有350万用户和10亿份数据点，利用这些数据，联合创始人发现了人类的一些“迷惑”行为模式。

其中一条就是：在男性眼中颜值争议性越大的女性，最终会受到更多男性的喜爱。

他们随机追踪了两位女性，都属于颜值评分为好看的类型，却注意到其中一位每个月能收到90条短信，而另外一位只有30条。为什么会这样？

数据分析表明，收到短信数量更多的女性收获的颜值评分两极化差异也更大，也就是说，有些男性认为她长得歪瓜裂枣，而另外一些人则觉得她超级妩媚。

与被普遍认为可爱的那位女性相比，颜值的巨大争议确实与收到3倍之多的短信数量相关联。

OkCupid的数学宅主推测，也许男性认为，评分两极化的女性对他们来说交往几率更大，因为她身上有些东西只吸引某一些男性，由此竞争也更少。也许是，也许不是，不管什么原因，给单身女性的终极建议就是：拥抱自己独有的特质，它能让你大放异彩。
