Can't remember where the article is now, but apparently SF has the highest ratio of single straight women to single straight men in the entire US. However, it also ranks as one of the most difficult to date in, because no one steps up to the plate.
And please, don't discount the beer. I'd cry if I lived in a city where I couldn't get a good beer.
Just the opposite. SF (and Silicon Valley) has the highest ratio of single straight men to single straight women in the country. It's a very, very difficult place to date as a straight man.
And the abundance of male techy immigrants means that women who are attracted to geeky men are the most in demand and most likely to be already taken.
If you're single (and male) and you'd like to be paired up, make it happen before or after your time in SF.
And please, don't discount the beer. I'd cry if I lived in a city where I couldn't get a good beer.
