Scientists from the ADF (Australian Dating Foundation) have today received confirmation of government grant aimed at studying the new phenomena of single women posing with sunflowers in their dating app profiles.
Lead researcher, Professor Liv Laghe-Love says the much-needed funding comes as a relief to her team – who have been preparing for this project for months now.
“Early studies into this subject show that up to 70% of women seeking romance through online dating have at some point taken a photographer friend down to a nearby sunflower field and posed for a sunny photo shoot in a summer dress”
“Sometimes they wear a bold outdoorsy type hat, which we find to be very brave – considering the short lifespan usually given to a popular style of hat”
This research paper follow’s the ADF’s six-month study into why young blokes think that chicks appreciate seeing them posing with animals they have killed, or better yet, heavily sedated tigers in South East Asia.
“The research into young bachelors posing as amateur fishermen and pig shooters resulted in surprising findings”
“These men appear to have a similar mindset to domestic pets who bring home dead rodents to impress their owners.”
“Sometimes they even include a bloody hunting knife or show a photo of them scaling an undersize fish while drinking a Great Northern”
“They must really think that it’s a good way to get a root”
However, one subject that appears lost on all researchers is why men on dating apps consistently use zoomed-in, grainy photos of themselves wearing sunnies in their profile pictures.
