The absolute number of messages is different: men message way more women than women message men, and they receive fewer responses. Thus, even if the top 20% would receive 40% of the messages (which I could not reconstruct?) the proportion of people courting them is different.

I wonder how you can read it as "mildly disconfirming hypergamy"? Does this data not suggest that the subjective dating pool for men is larger than the subjective dating pool for women?

I may be super dense because I fail to parse your attempts to explain away the obvious, but I still think you are embarrassing yourself by insisting on something that is not at all supported by the data.

In case you think that your null hypothesis somehow suggests you should dismiss the obvious interpretation of OKCupid dynamics, have a look at Tinder, which is much more pronounced.
