Source?


What is the ratio of unmarried men to women across the U.S.?

DP: "Washington, D.C., has one of the lowest ratios of unmarried men to women in the U.S.: 80 unmarried men for every 100 unmarried women."

https://www.usatoday.com/story/graphics/2024/02/13/single-adults-highest-rates-states/72572419007/

"For every 100 single, college-educated individuals in the Washington area, women outnumber men 53-47. And single women with college degrees are coming here at a faster clip than men in the same demographic, census data show."

Where I live, the average guy drives DoorDash for a living and makes 420 his entire personality. Every successful woman I know in my city struggles with dating because the pickings are slim.

That being said, the women where I live aren’t great either. Many are very very beautiful (part of the culture is tons of makeup, hair always styled, very revealing clothes) but my guy friends say it’s basically impossible to find one with a real job. They all just want to marry into money and stay home.


Well that’s what women are supposed to do


Time to head back down to your Mom’s basement. Snack time is over.

I was checking out DCUM years before I was on Bumble. It's interesting even to people who don't live in DC. You can tell that a lot of the people who post on DCUM are not from DC.

When you set Bumble to "Current Location," the app changes who you see every time you land at a new airport. Bumble's Miami women are often absolutely stunning but I'm not sure they're real or really working at the kind of jobs where you report your income to the IRS. I think they might mostly be sugar babies or something like that. NYC and LA also have many attractive women on Bumble, but they don't tend to look as serious, as a group, as the DC women do, as a group. Obviously there are some Russian and Venezuelan bikini models in DC, and some black doctors and Jewish lawyers and so on in Miami, NYC and LA.

Many look impressive on paper and pictures, try speaking to a few and see what happens.

I lived and dated in DC. Personally I think women and men are more attractive where I live now/Chicago. The main difference is that people seem to be more shallow and with narrower viewpoints overall. Men in DC were less wealthy but they were serious intellectuals. All these directors, feds, doctors, lawyers. They travel to Europe, play chess, attend book clubs, very well versed in jazz and classical music.
It’s easy for me to find a guy who lives in a penthouse and with a yacht in Belmont harbor in Chicago. But he would be falling asleep at jazz clubs, leaving alone classical concerts. These are “men who golf”.
DC overall was very educated - these are people who are interested in the world.

Maybe you are just not interesting to talk to. And not, it’s pretty standard to meet “bikini models” in DC who can discuss with you best investment options for the year or BDSM toys, depending on where the conversation goes.

Ratio is probably bigger.


Don’t food yourself thinking the ratio would help you to land one of these women. First, the top rated profiles would match and date each other. Second, dating is nowadays cross states: these hot intellectual chicks will rather be single or date someone from a different city. I had a BF from West Coast when I lived in DC.

Nice try, but that was a swing and a miss.
I have a very robust amount of women who want to match, talk and meet. It is me who is turn off by them - one word answers, no ability to initiate or carry a conversation, narrow minded and everything revolves around some specific topics. While many are very attractive and successful, they are just not interesting.

No it’s you. In other cities you’ll have even lower chance to meet interesting people. Maybe only NY would compare with DC but life is expensive and single women usually are empowered . Those who are attractive and with good starter careers would only date men with Wall Street income
