Person Sent 1,000 Replies In Craigslist’s ‘Casual Encounters’ Section And The Results Are Dismal

With the explosion of “dating” apps such as Tinder, Bumble, Happn and Hinge, we forget that back in the day if you wanted to meet anonymous people to hook up you usually used the “Casual Encounters” section of Craigslist. However, most of the females on there were hookers, at least that’s what my friends tell me, but they said that the prices were very reasonable. One individual with too much time on their hands wanted to see if they could use Craigslist to find some loving.

Charming Reddit user I_Use_This_4_Porn did his own independent study to see how successful one could be in meeting people using Craigslist, in the name of science of course. The results were far from encouraging.

So you have a 1-1000 chance of physical contact if you use Craigslist personals.

Those aren’t necessarily promising statistics. The stats become even more discouraging when you factor in that the one and only blowjob they counted did not indicate whether they gave or received the oral treats.

You could be a Black Lives Matter protestor attending a Donald Trump rally looking for love, and still have better odds than using Craigslist.

There are better odds of accidental oral contact if you walked around naked in New York City, haphazardly tripped, and your genitalia unintentionally landed on a person who was laying on the ground with their mouth attempting to catch snowflakes on their tongue.

I guess what I’m saying is, it doesn’t seem very advantageous to use Craigslist to hook up these days.
