"On the west side of Washington, D.C., for example, there are 1.4 college educated women between ages 18 and 30 for every man of the same description."

Shhh, don't let the men find out. Otherwise they will start holding out.

I'm in my late 30s. One of my friends who is single and very beautiful (also in her late 30s) is single, in my opinion, because she has a long list of requirements that most guys can't meet. He has to be at least her age but not more than 10 years older, 6'2"+, graduate degree, well off (rich), no prior baggage, can't be a homebody, etc. She's 5'4", has a decent job that just breaks 6 figures, and doesn't actually have a grad degree herself... go figure. Guys she meets either don't fit the list and are rejected, or if they do, they'll date her for a bit but don't seem to want a long term relationship with her and end up with someone in their 20s or someone within their social circle. I wish she'd relax that list a little, but she views that as "settling" and would rather remain single than compromise.

My other single friend is an amazing woman - pretty, educated, kind, sweet - but she works long hours, doesn't go out much and refuses to do online dating because she wants to meet someone "organically". Shockingly enough, she's not meeting anyone.

I am a married woman and I agree that some of my single friends have non-flexible expectations, have blind spots regarding their own imperfections, and then the longer they live alone, the more they get accustomed to their idiosyncrasies without assessing the need to be flexible and open to growth and change.

Head East, women! You are searching in the wrong quadrants.

lol...

The problem is that women have upped their game but men haven't. I got a mail order DH from Europe. Kidding, but he is an immigrant from Europe, and I'm Asian American.

“Women have upped their game but men haven’t”: meaning what? Are we supposed to magically become taller and richer?

Just a college degree or a silicon Valley start-up CEO.

What the terrible ratio fails to account for as well is the huge gay population in DC. Many of the single men are definitely not looking to date women.

Or a religion, for some:

"One of my web searches turned up a study from Trinity College’s American Religious Identification Survey (ARIS) on the demographics of Mormons. According to the ARIS study, there are now 150 Mormon women for every 100 Mormon men in the state of Utah—a 50 percent oversupply of women....

Yes, she told me, the ratios are lopsided. And yes, Mormon men take full advantage. “They wait for the next, more perfect woman,”"

The issue in DC is unlike most major cities, we don't "make" anything here. No factories, no manufacturing, and the nearest major port is Baltimore. So a huge % of jobs are white collar and require a college degree. At most universities, it's 60% female, so you'll see similar ratios like that in the workforce around here.

"We all have that friend: the beautiful, intelligent, driven woman who—like Katherine Heigl in every rom-com—can't find a decent date. Every guy she goes out with is an asshole; she consistently dates "below" her league, and she's on the verge of giving up on a committed relationship altogether.
Not long after he turned 30, the writer Jon Birger realized he and his wife knew a lot of women like that. The couple didn't have a lot of single male friends left, but the many single women they knew all seemed to be buyers stuck in a seller's market. One of those friends, Birger told me, "had been dating a guy for a couple years. It certainly seemed like they were well on their way to getting married. She was in her late 30s, he was in his mid 40s. She really wants to have kids, get married, the whole [thing]. And she's amazing in every way." "

It's raining men out there, all you need to do is check the forecast and go where the rain is:

Time to start up a Mail-Ordered Husband and visa processing service.

Katherine Heigl? Reports are her beauty is skin deep but her petulance goes clear to the bone.
