With Father’s Day just around the corner, Match.com is celebrating the single dad with new data it released today on its official blog Up To Date- cause hey- dads need lovin’ too!

Recognizing that not all men are alike, nor are the qualities that attract women to them, Match.com looked at a variety of different types of single fathers -- from the Foodie Dad to the Do-it-Yourself Dad and the beloved Sports-Crazed Dad -- pinpointing the top locations where women can find their ideal single father.

Additionally, they also examined the membership and communication patterns of single dads on Match.com, illuminating new insights about their dating patterns. I’ve included highlights from these top 10 lists and findings below:
