I’ve been saying it for years
For a long time after I moved to Seattle, my mother would ask about if I’d met any single women. And, I’d always say, there aren’t a lot of them here. And, well, there just kind of aren’t. Mind you, I spend 40+ hours week working in an industry that nationally is only about %10 female, so it’s very possible I’m just in the wrong places.
Well, then this map came out. Of course I showed this to my mother, and she kind of began to understand the situation. Cool.
So this past weekend I was at a wedding of my dear friend and former next door neighbor, Megan. While there, I was talking with my mom and she mentioned how Marie Claire had an article naming Seattle as the number one place for women to go meet men. After being told of this article by another person, I decided to look it up this morning. Turns out, if you’re looking for a man, Seattle is the place to be. While part of me is bitter about the findings, I will say, I was quite amused at what they said about the guys of Seattle.
So yeah, as my mom keeps telling her friends trying to get their daughters married off (her words, not mine), tell them Seattle is the place they need to be. Hey, I know of at least one eligable single guy there.


Weird comparing the entire West Coast with the Northeast
Corridor, actually.
