Hoeflation is a derogatory portmanteau of "whore" and "inflation", used to refer to the unfair Pareto Distribution principle (80/
20 rule) that has appeared in dating culture due to the advent of internet dating (such as Tinder). It essentially affirms that the dating market tends to be rigged in favor of women. The top 80% of women only really go after the top 20% of men (
female hypergamy), whereas a few decades ago, typically women would find men on their level as opposed to men way above their level. Women only date upwards now, and by a lot. The average man nowadays needs to
work several times (~5x) harder than his grandfather (finances, bodybuilding, career etc.) to attract women who are several times (~7x) in lower quality (inferior) to his grandmother (less attractive, abhorrent personality) etc. Lets do a quick inflation formula with the 5 and the 7.
Real Inflation Rate = ((New Price - Old Price) / (Old Price x Quality Factor)) x 100 so we get
Real Inflation Rate = ((50 - 10) / (10 x 7)) x 100 which is a 571%
real inflation rate (rate of Hoeflation in this case) that men must bear the cost of. Now lets look at some more math. According to
Kanye West, one good girl is worth a thousand
bitches while Lil Wayne says that
bitches come a dime a dozen. So one good girl is worth $8.33, so a bitch is $0.00833 (these are all in USD).
Friend 1:
Dude, I make a ton of
money, I'm fit, I have a decent career and house. A girl rejected me on Tinder because im only 5'11" tall. She wants a 6'0" man.
Friend 2: What the heck? Thats crazy, sounds
like Hoeflation on Tinder to me. Ouch.
