Sexiest Spots for Singles

by Willy Volk on Feb 19th 2007 at 11:52AM

When I was single, I always hoped that when I went on vacation, I'd meet a sexy woman willing to throw caution to the wind and we'd have a crazy fling. While I wish I could regale you with sexy stories of sexy times, I have to come clean: I never met those kinds of sexy women. It could've just been me, of course, but maybe I was going to the wrong places. But what are the right places?

According to Forbes, the top three cities to meet singles are Boston, Austin, and Washington D.C. (Atlanta squeaks in at number 10.)
MSNBC agrees that Washington D.C. is a good spot, but suggests visiting Amsterdam, Buenos Aires, Miami, Rome, Tokyo ... and Juneau.
New York is a good option, especially if you're a man.
Sperling says the top three cities for singles are Austin, Colorado Springs and San Diego. It ranks Atlanta as among the 10 worst places to meet singles.
Conversely, Love@AOL claims Atlanta is No. 1.

To me, it seems that it shouldn't be so much about what city you're in. It should be more about where you're comfortable, and where you can be yourself. Consequently, I'm going to have to agree with Rate It All, which seems to argue that location isn't as important as context. That site ranks the top 3 places to meet singles as school, a wedding, and on the bus.

I know it's along way to travel but there is no place like Bangkok,Thailand for beautiful women.About a 4 to 1 ratio and they are not overweight like most American women.For what you would spend for a week on the beach in Fla. you can spend a month in Bangkok and have a vacation you would never forget.

You obviously have never been to New Orleans, La. I have lived here all my life ( I am a woman) and I have had several single lady friends move here from other states. All found boyfriends quickly here where party and restaurants are open 24/7.

None of the spots mentioned are prime. The grocery is best, plus you can tell if a woman is married or living with someone by what she buys. It's easy to meet them there, too. "Excuse me, how do you cook this?" Works every time. The first date? Always take them to church. Now you know everything you need to know about a woman.

Another great place is Avalon at the Jersey shore...There is A.C. Cape May, great resturants, clubs, fishing for the guys, etc....

There are alot of single women in Seattle seeking males for romance. In addition, Seattle has alot of prostitutes for men who are shy.

Carry Feb 23rd 2007 10:58AM

True, when it comes to men V.S. women America has evolved into an Anna Nicole Smith culture. The good news is we are having our noses rubbed in "it" and the whole world's watching. It's about time.

Dating? U.S. guys and gals (more often than not) will get exactly what's coming to them.
Ditto Bang-kok.

Sincerely, Carry

Well Ken...I will agree with you...America is the most overweight country. It not only goes for women but for men as well...every been to Walt Disney???...OMG...obesity is out of control in this country. Don't just stick it to women...because the guys are just as disgusting. Maybe this is because we are glutens, sit inside, watch the idiot box about Anna or Brit...then maybe play hours video games...eat, then listen to an Ipod. This is what's wrong with finding people....we don't have the same environment we did prior to all this technology that keeps us isolated. Also...do not categorize that ALL women 5'4 should be 110-120...far eastern woman do NOT have the curves or shape of european women which are gorgeous and voluptuous...desirable...touchable. Many are in shape but may fall outside of your rigid guideline. If you weren't such a woman nazi and open your eyes...and your heart....maybe you'll find a cool chick that you will love, endear and enamor...even if she did get a lil junk in the trunk because she wanted to be a good woman to you and cook for you. Better for slapping.. :)~

biggest towns for singles, what still not educated enough about life to find those in your area, if you believe this stuff, you're so brainwashed. I live in Austin, yes alot of cute singles but "the only bigger in texas is their attitudes"

jasmitch25 Feb 23rd 2007 11:26AM

COME ON, Has anyone ever been to Scottsdale, AZ

susan Feb 23rd 2007 11:41AM

enough with the fat american girl rant. how about you fat american guys who have to travel to places like thailand to get laid?? it's beacuse not even the fat american women will have ya!!!!!!!!!

Kym Feb 23rd 2007 11:44AM

And the problem with many American men is they can't spell worth a darn and the majority of them have small... I may be a little heavy, but have been told I got more moves than U-Haul. Mat6 has the right idea. It's all about respect guys. Give it out and it comes back to you tenfold. Delray, you're a doll!
