And I was jokingly poking fun at the HN community, which obviously seemed to hit home to a lot of people.
I think it's a fascinating issue. Personally I would never move to the Bay Area mainly due to the huge imbalance in male/female ratio.
Not that NYC is heaven in terms of dating/sex life. I definitely don't get laid left and right.

I wish I could just set up an OkCupid profile and filter out a maxed-out inbox of requests).
