Some great food for thought here..!

Separately, you have written about the many girls who are family-oriented and who don't easily get into any sort of relationship. They prefer to take their time, to focus on accumulating useful skills - and to look for a high quality guy with long term potential. These girls are not looking to f...k, but it would still seem logical for them to doll themselves up as best they can and put themselves out there in front of eligible bachelors. All in the hope of sooner or later attracting and "catching" that one special guy... while everyone else will be filtered out (hopefully in a graceful manner).

It can make sense for such girls to use social media, dating apps, networks of friends, events and classes and whatever other tools may be available in order to maximize the "surface area" of contact with potential suitors.

Probably no female would express it in precise terms like this, nor follow such a strategy diligently. Few people overall are able to optimize their behaviours according to their aims, but... I'd still expect to see this pattern quite a bit.
