Lots of threads on here and other forums where there seems to be a blame game and divisions in the topic of dating, who finds it easier, blaming each other for issues in dating etc. But does the internet and social media just make it look worse than it actually is? Do you think in the real world, these people are a minority?

If you're talking purely about relationships and people blaming one another for their failure - then absolutely not. People have been blaming one another for this kind of thing for as long as humans have been around.
If you mean a more social and political level of gender divide - "all men/women are evil" then absolutely yes this is a function of how social media and media work together to massively amplify the voices of a very small number of very radical people.

I think that it does, because people who are happily dating, (or aren't bothered either way), are much less likely to post about it.

Do you think these sorts of forums have a disproportionate amount of unhappily single and/or frustrated people?

I don't necessarily think there's anything wrong with it, unless it spills over into the toxic end of things.

No difference at all. I talk to plenty of people of both genders face to face IRL who have the same issues and the same thoughts that I see all over social media.

In terms of number, they tend to be a minority in developed countries and a majority in developing countries.
