Another factor could be that women are generally pickier than men. IIRC some OKCupid research indicated that men seek the top 50% of women (by attractiveness) while women seek the top 20% of men. With the Internet making the dating pool larger this may hit men harder if potential partners feel less pressure to 'settle'.

Interesting, My partner (of 5 years) I met on OKC and she is objectively more attractive than me.

I was however attracted to her because she filled her profile in properly describing her outlook and the things she found interesting and it was grammatically correct (somewhat ironically given she is Hungarian and English is her third language).

Outliers exist. That's not news.
