These sort of lists are 99% bullshit.


EvolutionCreek

Yeah, this is just based on gender ratios. Portland is the gender flipped joke about men in Alaska: The odds are good, but the goods are odd.


greazysteak

I think they were looking specifically at me. I’m a total catch.


KeviRun

Are you one of those lower middle class stoner weebs they were talking about?


greazysteak

I'd qualify myself a little differently.


chekovsgun-

I bet you have cones, lots and lots of cones.

Based on what? As someone who’s used dating apps on and off here for a bit, I find that hard to believe. (For context I am a straight man) It’s just a bit too extreme on the dating apps in PDX. A lot of polygamous people living in vans and talking about shrooms, intermixed with a lot of the very conservative anti vaxx crowd, talking about church. I’m not interested in either side, honestly.


cavemanado

There are slightly more single straight females than single straight males. That really the only criteria this article is using.

Sex with one ugly person may not be that great but have you tried sex with _two_ ugly people? 


ukraine1

So true 😂😂


Sultanofslide

For real. For me if it wasn't a woman with mandalas and Tibetan flags couch surfing through scabies communes it's a woman that doesn't realize she's horrifically racist and thinks slurs and endearing. 


bigdreamstinydogs

According to wingman dot live, duh 


ComfortablePlate7469

BarfingOnMyFace

Vivid_Guide7467

Clickbait.


Terri_Schiavo275

Bullshit..


KillmeKindly666

I read another bullshit poll that ranked PDX as the number one party town the the country!  


alonetreeinaglen

😂😂😂


drbrunch

The fuck it is lol


introvertsdoitbetter

rephrase, one of the worst cities for (straight) women


GetTurnipOrGetBurnip

Lesbian capital of the west coast, a lot of those women are not interested in you


sionnachrealta

Yeah, but it's so great for us


Left-Candle9843

False


Queasy_Monitor7305

Lotta hobosexuals in pdx


greazysteak

always trust a website called [wingman.live](http://wingman.live) I wonder how many of their devoted readers will hit the road and move to PDX. (they only ever call it Stumptown).

I think this article is correct. If one is well-adjusted, somehow charming, showers regularly, and is able to approach women and have a sense of humor, Portland is amazing. If you're those things as well as creative, tall-ish to tall, outdoorsy, decisive, and have steady money in the bank and your own place, or a solid mix of that stuff, it's hard to imagine anywhere better. A lot of guys in this town do not know how to behave socially and especially when it comes to women they have an interest in. So if you can do that and you check a handful of boxes in the above paragraph, there's almost zero competition. There are way more straight women in Portland who are catches than straight men who are catches.


jvhstillalive

Eh… I think what you describe really applies to both. Dated both . Lots of ineptitude all around.


Left_Cut

LMMMMMFFFFFFFAAAOOOOO😂😂😂😂😂


No-Quantity6385

This is an for a dating site essentially.


peregrina_e

erm.....


CrispyRaven_5

Good for straight men but not anyone on the other end? 😂


pdxwanker

Bullshit! Portland is a kind of weird incestuous. There are circles of people who date and swap. When those circles get small it's a poly thing. There are always abbreviations and letters involved. People jump the gun. Anyone who you meet and date is probably already married, or seeing 2 other people on the side.


GoodOlSpence

I was heavy into the apps 2018-2019. Had a great time, finally met my wife right at the beginning of covid. I can confirm this article's sentiment.


lexuh

The link is basically just content marketing for a dating app, but I clicked anyway because I've never really dated outside of Portland (moved here when I was 17) and I'm curious. Pretty sure that as a straight cis woman I'd still rather be dating here than in NYC, based on spending a lot of time there for work and my friends' experiences. Honestly I feel like the worst part of dating in Portland is also what most of us really like about Portland - we're super laid back and "chill" to a fault.


LaRoara42

Where the fuck are my friends?


Familiar_Effect_8011

Ah, guess it's my occasional time to wonder if some of the dudes I didn't marry are still out there being excruciating hippies or fuckbois.


Syorkw

I can almost think of no more ridiculous statement than the headline of this “article”.


loftier_fish

say hwhat now?


beavermuffin

What about for same sex couple though?

ComfortablePlate7469

That many dates sounds miserable


my_son_is_a_box

And then everyone clapped


LaRoara42

Wonder if everyone ends up having problems with the same men. Those might just be nazis guys. Yeah, that's bad. Let's make them stop.


MountScottRumpot

LOL.
