Women seeking men
Did online dating revolutionise the way we meet and fall in love? Here at PARSHIP we’d like to think so, but maybe we’re a little bit biased. What’s certain is that something has been happening to the traditional gender roles in the dating world. Nowadays, women turn to online dating sites and actively seek out suitable single men. While dating online, they will often make the first move, too, which is something most men wholeheartedly support. This trend is not exclusive to the Internet, but where did it start? Is it the result of women’s general liberation or emerging technology? Either way, it seems dating equality is here to stay.

Women seeking single men
Looking for love is usually not easy. Having to wait around for it can be even more frustrating. This is one of the reasons why women nowadays are not shy about actively seeking out men, both online and in the so called real world. Speed dating events, for example, are notorious for appealing more to women than men. The good news is that if you are a woman seeking single men, you’ll be happy to know the ratio is often in your favour online. Men were early adopters of the online dating craze and many sites still have a male to female ratio that’s very heavy on the men. On PARSHIP we have a good number of both male and female daters, with more joining every day. The way we work seems to appeal to discerning single women looking to meet men for serious relationships and marriage. Men too turn to us when they’re ready to settle down and make a commitment. So whether you are a woman seeking men or a man seeking women, signing up and joining our database of high calibre singles could be just your ticket to finding someone who’s truly compatible with you. You’ll be happy to know that you’re free to make the first move, whether you’re a man or a woman. In fact, a quick look at our success stories will show quite a few happy couples who met after the woman initiated contact. The fact of the matter is that when it comes to securing a happy future for yourself, all bets are off. If you like someone or even want to get to know him or her better – go for it! Life’s too short to sit around and wait to get noticed online.
