The shallow nature of dating apps is known to anyone who uses them, and while men get a hefty amount of flack for putting a higher value on looks over emotional connection, women are also perfectly capable of judging a man purely on his appearance.

This is just what one man found when he decided to create a fake profile on Tinder featuring photos of a male model, before messaging a number of women with the most overtly sexual, and distasteful, opening lines he could think of.

The experiment was conducted by a user on a body building forum, known only by the handle GermanLifter.

Testing an idea: A user on a bodybuilding forum revealed how he created a fake Tinder profile with a male model's photos and propositioned women for sex

Borrowed face: The user created the profile in the hopes that he would get more attention from women online

Gleefully posting about his project under the subject line, 'The life of a 10/10 male (Tinder case study)', the unnamed man openly admitted that he created the false profile in order to enjoy attention from women that he usually doesn't seem to attract.

Clearly unhappy with the responses that his own attempts had received, the man, who described himself as having 'absolutely zero game', decided to see how women would react to a different, more attractive face.

So he borrowed photos of male model Holden Nowell, who is best known for his appearance in Carly Rae Jepsen's Call Me Maybe music video.

In the bio, the man simply listed himself as 22, 6'3, and 'a world traveler', leaving no other information for potential dates before they decided to connect.

Not long after sharing his original plan, the man returned to the forum to reveal how the experiment had gone, insisting that the results were 'unbelievable'.

He boasted that every single woman he had swiped on proved to be an instant match, adding that oftentimes the women would actually initiate the conversation.

Familiar looks: The photos he used were of male model Holden Nowell, best known for his appearance in Carly Rae Jepsen's Call Me Maybe music video (pictured)

Right on: The user found that he matched with 'every' woman he swiped for and claims he could 'say anything' to the women and still get their numbers

No problem: The crass language used didn't deter many of the ladies from furthering the conversation

Right in: Most of the messages where nothing more than straightforward propositions for sex

But what he found the most surprising was that, according to him, he could 'literally say ANYTHING and still get their number.'

To prove this, he included a large selection of screengrabs of his conversations, showing him sending incredibly crass and sometimes graphic messages to his matches - and still having plenty of success.

With one woman, for example, he simply started the conversation with the question: 'Anal?'

Shockingly - while many people might be horrified by such a proposition - the recipient was more than happy to indulge his crude attitude, responding: 'Hey, how's your day going? Haha. I love anal.'

Another woman actually went as far as to say that she was going to take his opening line - 'I want to put my c**k between your tits' - as a compliment, happily responding with a 'thank you'.

She then went on to willingly offer up her number after exchanging just a few more, equally crude, texts.

One word: Some men commenting on the experiment seemed shocked that women like to use the app for hook-ups

A few questions: This woman asked to see his social media pages, but sent her number anyway when he said he didn't have any

Not 100 per cent: The user admitted that he was 'turned down a few times' but didn't provide his numerical success rate

Indeed, many of the women appeared more than happy to offer up their phone numbers after just a handful of messages, which were often nothing more than propositions for sex, with many containing crude and offensive language.

And while the user didn't provide the actual success rate of his experiment, he claimed to have faced very few rejections - and when women did turn him down, it was because he had been even more rude and upfront than ever before.

'I did get turned down a few times,' he wrote, before adding: 'Only because I opened with stuff like "let's f***."'

The user, and several other men on the forum, seemed to be shocked that plenty of women were happy to use Tinder as a means for arranging hook ups with men they found attractive.

Other people responding were quick to tell GermanLifter that his surprise at this revelation was nothing short of ridiculous.

'I too would refuse sex from an attractive member of the opposite sex, because I'm a good person,' quipped one sarcastic user.
