What Hugo seems to be implying that they are performing a service to the women of this site by "pre-screening" for people who seem to insist that while they have little sex appeal, they are people who have something else to offer, and bold facing the idea that this absolutely must be just self-puffery which hides insidious "sexual entitlement".
A person of at least a little cynicism might look at this as an attempt to point oneself out as a "nice guy" by pointing out all of the "fake nice guys". Some of these guys may very well pretend to be "nice", just to ingratiate themselves to the women on the site... and whether that's something scandalous or not is a debate for another time. Some of these guys may just very well be nice, just lacking in looks and social capability. Does their implied undesirability or their pointing out that they do believe themselves worthy of a relationship with someone obviate their right to TRY? Moreover, do I trust this guy to be the adjudicator of what is or isn't a "real" or "fake" nice guy? And really, what more is it than simple contempt to think anything noble in taking it upon oneself to be the judge, jury, and executioner in someone else's romantic life?
