15 Reasons Why Washington DC Sucks For Guys

1. There aren’t many attractive women. Most are sloppy, ugly, fat, and don’t care about looking good for men.

“DC has a lot of over-educated white girls who could stand to lose 20 lbs. They have decidedly average faces. Said women believe that their education level and wack governmentalish type job makes them more of a catch than looking photogenic and being feminine… ” #

“I remember my first year here when it was not unusual to go to bars or clubs and see a good ratio of attractive women to men. Unfortunately things have changed drastically. Even the few girls that are out… a lot of them are unattractive. A few of the attractive girls I have smashed have also told me they thought the women here were mostly ugly. This creates a problem for single men. The pool of attractive women is a lot smaller here then it is in LA/NYC or Miami.” #

“There’s a map that claims that there is a higher proportion of single women to men in the DC area. But it doesn’t take into account that a lot of women don’t really take care of themselves like they do out west. Most of the girls that move out here don’t come to pursue modeling careers. It’s also cold half of the year. Not as much pressure to stay in shape.” #

“The only chicks who move to DC seem to be chubby, pasty white girls who have grad degrees in Poly Sci or Public Relations (or some other bullshit) and want to work in a gubbymint job or for a non-profit.” #

“Go out to a bar in DC this weekend. The few girls that you even see out will put very little effort into their dress. Is it so hard to put on makeup and high heels at least? I guess they can get away with it because there is very little competition here.” #

2. The city has boring, cookie-cutter people.

“The problem with DC is the majority of industries it caters to have boring, lackluster people (law and government). Government workers are the laziest, blandest, most depressing, least passionate people around and that becomes somewhat contagious. They go through the motions and count the days to retirement but they enjoy the security of a government job. The other problem is 3/4 of the city is off-limits if you aren’t looking to get shot and robbed.” #

“It’s pretty conformist, bourgeois and relatively upscale. If your goal is simply to have a stable, upper-middle class lifestyle and you are fairly conservative, it may be the city for you. It’s more for people who work, want to unwind on the weekends and mostly seem to have steady girlfriends or maybe date around somewhat. However, DC does seem to weed out the extremes of society including real creative energy and excitement.” #

“DC has always drawn lots of consultants who come here with job offers directly out of college with the Booz Allen, Accenture, and PWC’s of the world. Sure, some of them are hot, but it’s more the homely academic type. You also get a lot of the khaki-wearing men who put the girls on a pedestal, giving them an increasing sense of self-worth. It’s kind of funny… last time I was in LA at the beach area and saw several smokin hot chicks with guys who had the emo band look, tight jeans, crazy hair, etc. That’s something you rarely if ever see here.” #

3. Regardless of what surveys or Census figures say, Washington DC is the biggest sausagefest on the Eastern seaboard. This is obvious to anyone who has been out on a Saturday night.

“My sister just moved from NYC last year and really hated it, primarily because she felt like she was surrounded by government drones with no personality, but when she found out she could go out to a bar with 5 dollars in her pocket and have guys buy her drinks all night, she quickly changed her mind.” #

4. It forces you to lower your standards and date low-quality girls you would’ve never previously considered.

“The amount of guys i know that married a DC girl is minimal, and those guys married down. I don’t know one guy from DC who is married to a girl from this area where I thought to myself ‘Wow, good for him, that’s a nice pull.’” #

5. The few girls who are pretty have princess attitudes because of all the attention they get from the surplus of desperate, horny men.

“You get a few hotties at some of the consulting companies (Accenture is pretty good about hiring hot chicks), but they’re in the overwhelming minority and benefit from a supply/demand issue. Also, the ones who are attractive and have grown up in the area are basically spoiled princesses who have been having their asses kissed their whole lives and have no concept of reality.” #

6. The city is rapidly exporting cool, attractive people while importing ugly political nerds from the Midwest or upstate New York who insist on wearing flip-flops all the time.

“I went down there with a buddy this past summer for 3-4 days and hopped from Dupont, Adams Morgan, and U Street. We hit the happy hour spots on a Thurs/Friday. Nothing. Whatever talent I remember DC having has left.” #

“Does anybody remember south of dupont back in 07/08? Sooo many chicks just walking around. I remember the first time I went to Play lounge (midtown) back then. The place was packed with women. Then you’d step outside and the sidewalks had girls coming out of 1223. 1223 is gone and now it’s called Dirty Martini and it’s not even a club anymore. Heck even Lucky Bar used to be great. That place was like shooting fish in barrel.

“Now it’s terrible (low quality and a sausagefest)… I was at Public and Rumors last weekend and it was such a sausage party. Do you remember the Park at 14th back in 08/09? Two years ago I went to their international night and it was four floors of model-looking chicks of every race. It used to be diverse and high quality. Now it’s ghetto as hell. Recently an NFL player got stabbed outside of there. Even during the day and after work Dupont used to have a lot of hot girls walking around. Now it’s a lot less. Not sure what happened. I’m glad I’m not the only one who has noticed.” #

7. There aren’t enough cute white girls for white men who don’t want to date minorities.

“Without sounding like a racist, this is what is killing DC nightlife for me. I’m a white dude and I like white girls with a few exceptions here and there. The demographics of this area have shifted dramatically where there are so many Asians, Middle Easterns, blacks, and Hispanics that 1/5 of the girls out that night are actually white (and that doesn’t mean they are slim or attractive or single). Because so many people work for the government some way or another and make decent money, there is no income segregation and all the races party at the same places. There is a shortage of white girls and girls from Latin American countries like Brazil or Argentina.” #

“I think last time I was at Modern I felt like I was in Asia.” #

8. Women who live in DC gradually become status whores, obsessed with what you do and if you’re getting a table at the newest club on K Street.

“A ton of status whoring, fake people, degree chasers, one uppers, the ‘I care less than you do’ crowd.” #

“First conversation starter is always “What’s your job?” Lame just lame.” #

“DC women are very superficial… they are sizing you up to see how you can benefit them and their career. People live to work in this city… they all will have law degree’s, mba’s or some silly phd and they will make sure that’s the first thing you know about them. They’re gonna be looking at your clothes, car, and all the other dumb shit they use to measure you.” #

“Just about every 6+ chick found in a DC bar/club thinks she’s a 10 and has her 24-7 bitch shield up. Shoot, I am a white dude who works out constantly (9% body fat only), dresses sharp and makes it a point to always smile (I have nice teeth), yet the number of times girls give me the eye roll here is unreal! Sometimes, I dream of being a tall celebrity cat as that seems to be about the only foolproof method of getting GOOD-LOOKING women in DC.” #

9. Recent implants have sucked all the character out of neighborhoods by supporting soulless corporate chains. Soon the only stores in the city will be Starbucks, Potbelly, Chipotle, or cupcake shops.

“Neighborhoods filled with culture and diversity are being dissolved and turned into breeding grounds for kids trying to slum it with the safety of a Whole Foods in the vicinity.” #

10. Adams Morgan turns into an open-air ghetto on weekend nights during the summer. You can’t walk around after last call without wannabe thugs making derogatory comments at your girl.

11. There are not as many young and nubile au-pairs coming into the city as before.

“I’ve also noticed that the au-pair market has shrunk. I dated some au-pairs back in ’05-06 and although it was transient, at least I wasn’t lonely. But that avenue seems very diminished now.” #

“Cosign on the decreased au pair sightings. They used to be dime a dozen five years ago. There are so few that the fat Polish girl who would get no love back in her hometown is getting approached 20 times a night in DC. I knew a mediocre Brazilian girl (a 5) come to DC and tell me how amazing it is that guys offer to buy her drinks and take her for rides on boats (Georgetown). She loved the city of course. Back in Brazil she was a nobody.” #

12. It’s one of the most expensive cities to live in the United States , yet the girls are bottom of the barrel and still expect to be treated like NYC models.

13. The subway system is managed by retards, resulting in a high loss of life for a public transportation system in a first world city.

14. The weather sucks. It’s an intolerable swamp in the summer and cold enough in the winter that most women hibernate with their vibrators.

15. The HIV rate is the highest in America, exceeding that of many African nations.

In conclusion, Washington DC fucking sucks. I feel sorry for your dick if you live there.

A little hyperbole perhaps?

I think it all depends on the set you move with.

If you have contacts/friends who work at international orgs like the IMF, World Bank, etc, there are some hot international women who are quite clever and very datable.

Sure, compared to Spain or Brazil, DC is shit. But it is not nearly as bad as most of the USA.

I’m glad I don’t live there though!

July 11th, 2011 @ 10:29 am

One of the reasons that it’s sucked more as of late is the economy. Internships have disappeared, and kept away plenty of women during the summer. People have cut back on au-pair spending. A decent economic recovery would (presumably) provide WMATA with more cash for maintenance and investment. People could then afford to eat at the local places instead of opting for the dollar menu. People could then afford to eat healthier and at least pay for a gym membership. Hell, even spend more money on beauty products. The boring lawyers would look for more jobs in NYC than in DC, as the financial crisis has hobbled the financial sector. I’d have more money to visit other cities. A broad economic recovery wouldn’t make DC a decent city for getting women, but any improvement would be appreciated.

Ditto and ditto. Amazing how many incredulous looks one gets if you ask “What do you do… Outside of work?”. I could care less what a girl does for work as long as she’s cute and refined and pleases me. DC has become a pansy gentrified ‘safe’ city… Which will soon collapse when the G’ment starts to severly cut back and/or goes bankrupt.

The only solace I get is that when I leave this steamy swamp that it will seem almost effortless to pick up in other major cities such as Boston.

Over the last 2 years I had considered relocating to the DC area. After visiting DC a few times I disliked DC and also with the comments on this site I decided not to move to DC. DC has a stressful, no-fun vibe. Probably any U.S. city is better than DC for PU. What U.S. cities are good for PU? There is some college towns in the South and West (where it’s warmer) that are more fun and have girls out year round.

July 11th, 2011 @ 11:34 am

“Sure, compared to Spain or Brazil, DC is shit. But it is not nearly as bad as most of the USA.”

Sure but most of the USA is an unbelievable hell hole that should be shut down immediately.

It is pretty amazing. I happen to be in a stunningly beautiful Spanish beach town at the moment. It really puts almost any comparable stretch of California coast to shame.

But more importantly, the amount of attractive women is pretty mindblowing. And this place is not high profile at all. Pretty much only Spanish tourists.

“On the bright side, if you can game here, you could probably do it anywhere. But is it worth it?”

Honestly, no.

You should get the hell out. The “if you can make it here, you can make it anywhere” reasoning only works in A-grade cities ie NYC, Paris, Barcelona, etc.

DC just so happens to be a B-grade city. And a horrible B grade city at that. Maybe the worst.

I haven’t read about any flash mobs in DC. Either there being covered up, or the Mexicans have kicked out all the blacks. I suppose if it gets too bad, you can find a majority white city without too many NAMs in it. Of course, wait long enough and all those will be gone too.

All the comments about DC can be applied to just about ANY MAJOR US CITY. It’s merely a reflection of the US.

Cities like NYC, LA, or Miami Beach only SEEM better because they attract a disproportionate amount of actresses and models. Lots of eye candy, but for the average guy, those types are out of their reach and what is left are the DC-type fatties.

Granted, on the warmer areas of the west coast, the typical girl is a little less likely to be a fatty.

Good point.

If your Game sucks and you don’t come hard, NYC, LA, or Miami Beach are not going to be a magic bullet.

These places are pretty decent though if you bring the noize.

“Granted, on the warmer areas of the west coast, the typical girl is a little less likely to be a fatty.”

Haven’t been to DC in a while, but I can confirm that there are plenty of overweight girls in Southern California.

You still need to go to the right spots.

If you’re a black guy that likes black women, Dc is in the top 3 (ATL and NYC are in the top 2). And the 27-32 is a shooting gallery of chicks with phat asses looking for some semblance of Obama. I was swimming in pussy there. Perfectly degradable GS-11′s and Howard U chicks.

Now if you prefer white girls, sucks to be you.
Latinas are non existent, and Asian/Indian/Mediterranean are far and few between. I did bang out 2 Brazilians and a # of Eastern Euro chicks, but the average blonde haired, blue eyed, skinny chick that was the norm in Austin was non-existent in DC.

But fear not white guys, at least you can fuck Ethiopian chicks much easier than the avg black guy. Lord knows I tried to slide into some Habesha puss, with little success.

Here’s some of my thoughts:

1. DC does have a lot of fairly ugly poly sci types, but DC also has a lot of hot women as well. Additionally lots of hot VA women and international women as well.

2. A large part of the problem esp on this board is the focus on DC nightlife, which does suck. I made a new forum post regarding DC Clubs’ Lack of Door Policies. It’s the lack of filtering that keeps away the hot women from local venues. But i always see them walking in the street or on the metro.

3. Live in Arlington and come into town via the metro. Lots of hot women in Arlington and lots of daygame opportunities.

4. Just forget night game in DC. It should only make a small percentage (25% or less) in your search for chicks.

People should take a look at the smaller city’s in Florida. I live in the Saint Petersburg/Tampa Bay area and the game here is not bad at all. Tons of hot girls who keep fit because of the weather and the beach. Most are dumb as shit and not LTR material but who really cares. Most guys have no game or run the bropack/ed hardy variation so if your game is tight you will have a huge advantage over just about anybody.

I live it down town st pete and it’s a shooting gallery every Friday and Saturday night with women packed into the clubs wearing short skirts and heels. If you can dance you have it made since the girl/guy ratio is solid.

July 11th, 2011 @ 2:29 pm

I believe you. I went to Ft. Lauderdale for a few nights back in winter and I was amazed at the quality and lack of competition.

These guys saying DC has a lot of “hot” women must fall into three camps:

1) They have very low standards from living too long in DC

OR

2) They are lying.

OR

3) They haven’t visited DC in a long time

I have visited DC recently, and the place is a wasteland.

For a city of its size, it must have one of the worst collections of women in the USA.

Roosh, stay in Eastern Europe. The girls there are practically ballerinas compared to the fat cows that live in DC.

Day game is the only viable game in DC. Walk around Georgetown on a Saturday (not the waterfront) and you’ll have to pick your jaw up off the ground from all the hot girls you’ll see. Hotties ride the Orange line out to Vienna too. You’ll never see them at night though. I agree with all the comments that say to frequent northern Virginia.

‘Only autistic dudes wouldn’t be aware that Silicon Valley is a wasteland of cock. It’s a non-issue.’

I am in Cleveland right now. Seems like a lot of people want to get out of here as the statistics point to, but the city has some nice spots. Lots of the single, lonely, hot women around. Every one of them has a kid though even if their in their early twenties.

Au pairs: You probably have great advice for landing them, and since I’m in an area where they’re still fairly common, your take on taking them would be invaluable. (Note to others: “Roll up looking like you fart Benjamins” is not useful information.)

Compared to Brazil or Poland and many other non-US/Canadian cities, of course DC sucks – it’s terrible. But compared to cities within the US and Canada, it may be bad, but there are places that are much worse – Denver and Toronto come immediately to mind – no girl has ever said to me in DC that her “friend” won’t even talk with guys under 6’3″ – and I don’t see top shelf guys forced to date down with girls who look like the Michellin Man. Some Southern/Bread Basket cities like Charlotte and DFW are probably better, but the idea that Boston is somehow better than DC is ridiculous. For guys who don’t have the resources to expat, it really doesn’t do them any favors to say that DC is the worst place to be.

all points are true, though there’s something about the ‘if you can make it there’ thing. I’d never even get into game (in a bigger sense, as style and swagger, have little patience for PUA BS beyond basics) if I didn’t end up here.
Mainstream nightlife indeed does suck major ass, and I say it as a guy somewhat in the club scene, know DJ’s, promoters, can get in for free etc. More underground techno scene is a lot better but it’s more about drugs than sex. A ‘college’ bar is probably the best bet to pull strange for a night.
Sure agree on daytime in Georgetown, but for many reasons, like being hung over and likely still asleep on Saturday afternoon, don’t really do much of that, lolz.

I don’t have that much personal knowledge of DC, but I do know there are plenty of colleges – GW, American, GTown, etc. These colleges have undergrad and grad students, and the women must drink somewhere. So you might want to find where that is.

I live in NYC and it’s no picnic. Girls all have their bitch shields up, even the mediocre ones, maybe especially those, and they seem unwilling to meet guys who aren’t already part of their circle. It’s very cliquey.

What’s the point of bitching? If you’re in DC and your life sucks either do something to improve it or get out. Some of the things on this list don’t even make sense. How can DC be full of cookie-cutter people and have too many minorities at the same time? Sometimes the PUA/MRA-ospehere resembles some kind of bizarro Jezebel.

The truth about DC is that it’s not a great place to be an average dude. There are a lot of plain chicks with varying entitlement complexes and socially inept herbs who gives those chicks an even more inflated sense of their worth. You know the solution? Don’t be the average dude. DC is the perfect place for variant of asshole game. Be aloof in a city of needy dudes. Be non-committal in a city of over-scheduled women. Be politically incorrect in a city of SWPLs. Be cocky in a city full of self-deprecating. Approach during the day. Flirt at every opportunity. Learn to dominate your social circles.

Also, if you’re not here doing something you really want to be doing, then you’re probably going to be miserable. Part of me is counting the days until I get out of DC, but I’m here because I love my job. There are plenty of career paths here that allow you to do something interesting while building status at the same time. Will you be able to walk into some K street club and be treated like a VIP? No, probably not, but every year a new crop of twenty-something girls come to this city interested in doing something. If you’ve made a name for yourself in that thing, it’s like shooting fish in a barrel.

Any place with a lot of blacks will necessarily have no hot chicks.

Anyway, San Francisco has a TON of hot women and very little competition for any guy with even a little Game. Other guys are either herby nerds, or if they are stylish they are gay.

While San Jose might be among the worst places to score hot chicks in the US, San Francisco is among the best.

“Any place with a lot of blacks will necessarily have no hot chicks.”

Obviously, you have never been to Atlanta.

Additionally, the black girls are probably one of the better things going there along with elite girls, college girls, au pairs and diplomats daughters.

Also, I just noticed something is strange about that “Ultra Bar” club photo:

1. Almost nobody is drinking
2. Why is it so well lit?

I think this is some guy heavy event taking place there not a club night.

Either way, a great photo to make a point.

@59 – Clearwater Beach just west of Tampa is/was pretty good. Spent some time there with family and used to pull all the time at the beach bars/clubs (day and night). Sex on the beach was a common occurrence. Because it’s a beach town, you do have to be in decent shape. The downside is that the chicks are dumb as rocks, and the entire scene has a stuck-in-the-early-90s vibe to it. The music depends on the bar/club. Beach bars ubiquitously play Jimmy Buffett, while the nightclubs play stuff from the early-2000s (and still think it’s cool). If I was a DJ, I’d clean up by bringing a bit more Miami and New York sound. The cops can be @ssholes, but if you’re cool, they’re cool.

I used to pick up all the time in Arlington. If you want white girls go to one of the faux Irish bars in Arlington. The Four Courts by Court House Metro was my go-to place.

True, the girls are more likely to be 6s with a few 7s. But you will likely pull on a Saturday night as all the girls are drunk by the end of the night.

Last time I went (back in December 2010) there were more Asian girls than I remembered. That makes it doubly likely that you will pick up if you are a white guy with even some game.

true on how they need to revamp clearwater beach bars a bit.I dont want to disrespect Rooshes post here by going off topic but I know the owner of one of the popular bars here and I know all his female bar tenders too.Ive half ass gamed them all even his 19 year old gf just as a head trip to see if me(a 38 year old had a chance) and they all showed interest which goes to show even mild Game works like a swiss clock here(these florida girls are DTF and are starved for good Game since like you said alot of dudes here have NO game whats so ever.but as far as the non-staff or girl that work on the beach, Id say tourist are better pulls for me. Nelly did a concert on the beach at a club we have here called shepards about 4 weeks ago.
It was ok except that every wanna be wigger thug showed up from the florida sticks trying to walk+talk black,being from LA,CA it was painful to watch.
As far as the Police on the beach,Yeah Im friends with a few and even know one who arrested a co-worker of mine who got caught selling cocaine on the beach.yeah he’s long since been fire but the cops out here in Tampa/Clearwater beach are your basic “good ole boy” country ahole dicks.

Clearwater beach is alright althouth last few times ive been out there it was a scene right out of jersey shore filled with d-bags and tatooed up trashy women. A lot of people clean up in a scene like that but its not my deal. I prefer the bars and clubs downtown st pete as they have gotten much better the last few years and are drawing a lot more crowds since ybor is such a shithole and s tampa has been played out. Plus its where I live so its super easy to pull a girl home when you live a block away from the club.

Interesting to see so many plugs for the Tampa Bay area as I got so miserable of DC after the last 6 years that I just moved to South Tampa for something new. I stick out like crazy here in a sea of juiceheads and Jersey Shore types. It’s pretty cartoonish down here. I haven’t quite figured it out because it’s so different.

The girls are def hotter here. It’s not out of the ordinary to see a half a dozen 8s or 9s in a day here just jogging or being at the grocery store (yes, 9s). They’re everywhere. In DC it’s a bunch of frumpy, entitled fat chicks in sneakers with law degrees tacked to their foreheads. Here chicks approach me. That happened very little up there, but it’s thrown me off a little seeing how friendly they are down here when a lot of them are from NY.

@71 & 72.

I’m not going to say that Tampa/St Pete is all that great but if you can find your niche you can do quite well. Lived in N St Pete for 4 years and it was awful. Moved downtown a year ago and have been absolutely killing it. I dont fit in with the S Tampa juice head crowd so dtsp is a nice scene that’s been working great for me. There’s quite a bit of hipsters but overall people are more normal and down to earth than S Tampa. And the fact that there are tons of bars, and a handful of good clubs within a few blocks of my pad definitely helps out. I got tired of losing girls to logistics so I made the move to where it would be an easy transition from bar to bed.

If you make the trip downtown I would say that Friday is much better than Saturday and don’t bother coming out before 10-11pm. Push and vintage are your best bets as far as clubs go. But you can have a good time pretty much anywhere you go around the central ave area.

alot of girls are from the northern states who come here(i dated the most beautiful girl from Minnesota once down here,she would be a stunner even in La,CA standards).and I guess,with all the competition with all other girls here they change their northern tudes to a more “Party time “I wana meet you vibe”It took a bit for me to adjust here too,Being from La,CA where social interaction can be,well…how can we say,”Ice cold”and “west coast nice” or what I like to call “passive aggressive” or Im reaching for my can of Mace,you’re scaring me vibe.

Y’all are out of your mind. There are tons of super hot, super successful, super smart, super fun, super cool women in D.C. In fact, the truth about D.C. is that it’s a wasteland in terms of having acceptable, attractive, non-toolish dudes…most guys in D.C. are around a 4-5. If you aren’t getting game in D.C., and aren’t meeting great, attractive, cool women, it’s probably because either (1) YOU don’t have enough going for you to attract them and (2) try going to some other locations…Bethesda downtown, Old Town or Arlington, a different neighborhood in D.C. like Cleveland Park…something different than going to the same places over and over if you’re not finding what you’re looking for.

Ok enough on the name dropping bs.As far as nice hotels you got Don Cesar in St.pete 5 star, and another good one in Tampa is the Grand Hyatt. they also opened a new Hyatt on Clearwater beach like a year ago its right on the sand.If you want logistics and location to the beach its all pretty close driving distance around here unlike Los angeles,CA .Its a matter of what you want to do and be at.

Some guys don’t have the time to hang out and daygame which is becoming the foregone conclusion to adjusting to DC’s ills. Night game is more to the point and much faster to the bang if you only have a few hours a week to dedicate to pick up.

@45 beta_plus I would be careful about making dogmatic statements. Have you lived in both DC and Boston for over a year? I have. There’s a Boston writeup I left on the forum.

Lol to Bernie at @66. I pulled at Four Courts within an hour last year with some South American chick (still kicking myself for never ascertaining the flag) but tried another time, perhaps summer doldrums and seemed empty on a Sat. night. I’ll need to give this place another crack once I get back into town after Labor Day. Gua Rapo next door seems to get a mixture of some foreign looking hotties as well?

Roosh, it’s pretty obvious you suffer from at least one, if not all of the following:

1. Your college sweetheart left you because you consistently drink too much and cannot perform.

2. You don’t know how to talk to women.

3. Your asian brides sponsored link checks cannot cover a real night out in the city. Rocking a flask at a bar near the Farragaut North station will not yield the results you desperately seek.

4. You’re ugly.

Personally, I live in New York. I travel to DC at least once a month. Am I happy I live in New York over DC? Yes. But if I lived in DC, I wouldn’t bitch about it. I’d step my game up and find good women.

I completely disagree.

I think DC is great for guys and terrible for women. Yes, many guys may approach girls but majority are barely a 3. And if they are better looking, usually means they don’t have an education or a good career. (Personal experience from living here for a year and going out every weekend, yet, I get approached much more often by models and business owners in CA and other states who treat/treated me very well. Yet here, even if I give a chance to a 5-6, which I do, each and every one of them usually messes it up by being an idiot.)

Without a doubt, there are many girls in DC that are good looking, smart, and nice. I meet a lot of them quite often. Anytime I go out, I see more good looking professional females then men. There is definitely a shortage of single, intelligent, good looking men.

And your picture of an Ultra bar is ridiculous– that’s an 18 and over club that NO ONE likes to go to. Horrible, horrible place, which is not representative of the city’s nightlife.

Seriously, stop complaining, your opinion of yourself is obviously inflated.

Maybe a slightly exaggerated description of DC, but for the most part it’s right on the money.

I invite anyone to go out in DC on a weekend night. The ratio isn’t as bad as in the particular pic that was posted, but there’s definitely a limited supply of women compared to how many men you’ll see, and most men struggle. Their looks and personality don’t really matter a whole lot because it’s a question of supply and demand, and the supply is just not there for the men.

There is no eye contact or flirting signals of any kind coming from women in DC, so that makes it even tougher for the men. Maybe DC women don’t know how to flirt or just aren’t interested in dating. Not sure.

July 12th, 2011 @ 4:27 pm

For guys still in their mid-to-late 20s – move to a college town.

- Favourable gender ratio. Every college campus has a surplus of women. And contrary to the popular PUA meme, 20% of the dudes are NOT fucking 80% of the girls. Owing to the man shortage, many are single, lonely, and horny. The stats bear it out.
http://www.hookingupsmart.com/2010/09/14/hookinguprealities/sex-and-the-pareto-principle/

- Low Expectations. Girls’ expectations haven’t gone up yet. For college girls, a guy with a professional job, a car, and his own pad is high-status (beats screwing in a crowded dingy dorm or a shanty with 8 other kids right?) It’s only when they hit the real world in the big city that they get start adding to that 500 bullet-point checklist.

- Less competition. In the big city the competition is REAL top-dog alpha ballers, bankers, lawyers, and millionaire playboys. In a Podunk college town your competition is… Joe the Plumber and broke college kids. Most other small town guys your age are married or locked down in serious LTRs. Women are as choosy as their options. Big fish, small pond.

- Better reception to cold approaches. Girls in college towns are generally more receptive to random conversation from strangers as they’re not used to being accosted by homeless dudes, junkies, muggers, potential rapists, guys trying to sell shit, and just plain creeps.

- If you look young enough, you already have an “in.” College girls aren’t intimidated by being approached by a guy who looks like all the other guys at their college. Just don’t look too old or out of place.

- Better quantity and quality girls. Thousands of girls in their physical prime. Younger, hotter, tighter. Intelligent girls with ambition. Educated girls who stay in shape. Many still in their “experimental” phase.

If you’re a professional dude, look young, and live in a college town, day game should be a poon haven. Since moving here, I get more ass than any of my boys in the big city.

I was a student in DC in the late eighties to early nineties, and yeah, it was pretty much as described in the article, with the main difference being that D.C. had fewer Asian and Central American people in it back then. While LA has Hollywood to pull in actresses and New York has modeling to pull in models, DC has some seriously penis-heavy business sectors like DOD (dept of dudes) and related contract work, and that’s not going to pull in the hot Norwegian girl who dreams of making it big in America or the All-American (White) Girl from Montana.

On the other hand, hot women are always in demand, most women are not 10s or 9s or 8s or 7s, and most men will either settle for a woman at their level or end up alone. Always was that way, always will be that way. If you don’t like what you see in front of you, check out Craigslist. (That’s a joke. Craigslist in any city will make you asexual.)

Roosh,

You’re as sour on DC as I am on Philly. I went to the same college that you did and lived in the DC area for another 4 years after graduating, before the crappy economy drove me back to my hometown of Philadelphia. I don’t know if it is a “grass is greener” mentality but women in Philly are much worse looking than women in DC. You definitely did the right thing in getting out of there but no need to continually bash the city– it does have some positive points. Philly, on the other hand, has nothing going for it. Not only are the women busted here, but they’re brainless too.

I’ll be turning 28 in the next month and hopefully leaving town in the next 6 months. Hopefully, headed to NYC or Chicago. It is all about finding a city that fits you. For you DC is not the place, for me, Philly is not the place, but it is possible for people to be happy in these areas.

The main difference between and bull market and a bear market is that even idiots can make money in a bull market. There is still plenty to be made in a bear market provided that you know it’s a bear market and you have the right investment strategy.

Hey Roosh,

Couple of points I want to make.

1. You are from Maryland, USA (Since you don’t specify…I am going to assume you grew up outside the beltway.) This leads me to also assume, you are a little naive as to where you should be spending your time within DC (georgetown) or Arlington (orange line during the week). Don’t hate on a city when you are from small town USA. (But I will come back to this point.)

2. Roosh. You need to update your look. Immediately understand the phrase “When in Rome” I am sure the homeless look did you justice in South America, but here in DC you must attempt to shave, shower, and dress in more than a 12 year olds outfit. This means that lime green gear is out and brushing your hair is in. Oh, and your nephews pants that you have borrowed…those definitely go as well.

3. Be interesting, but be interested. Ever heard that of that saying? I am guessing you love to talk about yourself. I am also going to go out on the limb and guess that ditzy girls are enamored by your vapid stories hence your complete disdain and probably more likely insecurity for higher educated women. Know politics, understand what deficit means, and articulate your thoughts. This will help you not only with women, but also develop communication skills with other guy friends that may invite you out to the “right bar” one night.

4. Location, Location, Location. Remember how I said I would come back to this point. Well I am here. Modern? Ultra Bar? What do you expect when you visit these bars? Also scenes move here….just because a bar was hot 3 years ago does not mean it is hot today. (Adam’s Morgan neighborhood CASE POINT) We are not waiting around for you to finally figure it out. The picture you posted…well friend those guys are not the “hot DC girl” type so we avoid those bars as well. I think you need to develop better friends that invite you to the “right bars”. Shaving helps your game too…

5. Drop the sour attitude. Hot DC chicks don’t exactly “dig” the “victim” or “emo” guy or our 12 year old brother (but I think I have mentioned that already).

You need confidence, a new stylist, and a different scene. Best of Luck!

@Fireworks and @Toronto Fan Boys

Before I start, may I say that I’m also talking about guys who are either unaware of game or don’t have the resources to put it into full practice. If you’re game is top notch, even Toronto might not be so bad. Also, I am NOT trying to say that DC is a great place to be. Obviously, there are many better places. I’m just saying that there are places that are worse.

I’ve lived in Boston for 3 and Toronto for 5. I won’t say that Boston is extremely worse than DC, but it is worse. Now, if you factor in cost of living and pain-in-the-ass-factor of living in both cities, let’s call it a tie.

Toronto, OTOH, is a fucking disaster. It’s the worst large city in the English speaking world, unless you have world-class game. Tons of tall guys fighting over fat (not American fat, but still fat) masculinized women. Mystery, Savoy, Tyler Durden, … the list goes on of guys who not only got to the top of game BUT MADE IT TEACHABLE – ALL from Ontario. Yes, Ross Jeffries was the first, but his stuff is extremely difficult to follow and depends entirely on accepting how and not understanding WHY. Did these Ontario guys do it because they are just that awesome? NO. It’s because Ontario women are fucking impossible and 3′s think and can get 6’5″ guys no problem. Necessity is the mother of invention. FFS, it’s the city where the Slut Marches started from.

I can’t tell you how many times my friends from Ontario come down and are shocked at how much easier it is to meet women in DC. Note I said EASIER, NOT EASY – you want easy, buy the ticket to Warsaw or Sao Paulo and rent a car. DC’s still a struggle, but at least there’s hope.

Now, does Toronto have better night life than DC? Of course. It’s bars, nightclubs, restaurants, and popular culture leave DC in the dust. But if we’re just talking about the women, no. Toronto women are less fat, but that doesn’t mean they are NOT fat. When you defend Toronto, ask yourself honestly are you defending the women or the city nightlife in general. Plus, if a woman’s face is important to you, Ontario as a whole leaves a lot to be desired. 5 dreary fucking years there drove that into my skull, and the hired guns at all of the nightlife places hire don’t count. I was in an East Side Mario’s in the suburbs of Kingston and they found that hired guns work. I never see that here – in fact – the opposite.

Again, my final point is that there are cities worse than DC. I am NOT trying to say that DC is in anyway good by international standards.

Too many tubbies trying to make up for it with fake tans/bleached hair. Lots of good from far/far from good cougars. Plus LA is a shithole.

BTW, it’s easy to pull ass in Rio because there are lots of favela girls looking for a place to sleep. It’s not because you’re the man, it’s because they are poor and can’t afford a hotel. Not EXACTLY prostitutes.

After reading this I really do not want to go out anywhere in DC just because of the way guys think about women.

I also wonder are all of the guys here – who posted bashful comments about girls in DC – 8s, 9s and 10s? You don’t see girls in night clubs because of your attitude. There’s no-one to look for there. Interactions with the guys of that kind make us girls shut down and not want to open up or be warm towards any guy.

I have a bunch of girlfriends who are gorgeous, put together, stylish, interesting, adventurous, and yes educated and successful (we should not feel guilty for our achievements), but we all prefer to stay at home rather than go and meet guys like the ones who posted negative comments here.

Be interesting and have a good personality, then you will have a better luck.

In dc most people are lawyers, which leads to a lot of the unnapealing women. I also take the shitty public transit every day and I can vouch for the fact that it sucks. There are always failures and it’s expensive. As for the fact that there arent cute white girls, that is completely true. This city is filled with minorities. Every where you go you will probably see a fat, shirt haired black woman talking loudly on her cellphone. Pretty much all of what roosh said is true.

Yes, you’ll run into some 6′s and 7′s that think they’re 9′s, but you’ll find that in every city. Take a page out of G Manifesto’s playbook and stick and move. Between North Beach, Downtown, and Marin/Russian Hill you have literally 100′s of nightlife options all within 1-2 miles. And the competition is weak.

Yes, the quality of girls in LA is SLIGHTLY higher, but all the best action in that town in happening in the hills above Hollywood, NOT in the nightclubs. Unless you have serious connections or money good luck breaking into that scene. The rest of LA is a sprawled out dump.

The reason this blog post of Roosh’s is blowing up with haters is because the women in DC are generally in denial about their plight in life and don’t like it to pointed out to them. They should take off their rose-tinted glasses.

I grew up here, much like Roosh, and have lived inside the District for 4 years. Everything he says, I can confirm with my own two eyes. I also point these things out to my buddies, and they can confirm with their own two eyes that these things are true.

When American women, especially those in DC, stop acting so “me-centric”, put effort into looking good when out in public and start flirting harmlessly with the men in this city, then and only then will we see a change.

Oh and don’t try to argue that American women are lazy when it comes to working on their appearances. My European friends who live here complain all the time about the lack of fashion sense of American girls and even those that do look fashionable end up ruining their outfit by wearing flip-flops!

This article is a fair assessment, but I must say that it all depends on the guy’s perspective. Clearly, this guy is looking to party and get laid. He is not looking for a cultural or exotic experience. Depending on how old he is, I do agree with him somewhat. Partying and getting laid is essentially what a “major” city should offer to young adults: the excitement of the chase; more accurately, the chase of equals. However, one is living in the wrong city if one is looking for all that “excitement” in DC. His explanation of why there are so many average looking women in DC is spot on. It makes sense, and it makes sense that the pretty girls do go to the highest bidders. Why wouldn’t they? If the supply is low, the price goes up. It’s Economics 101. Going back to perspective, it is eminent that this guy has the perspective of a person who thinks because he’s good looking, he should be able to smash any dime at any time. I don’t blame him for this perspective as this works in cities like NY/Miami & LA. Unfortunately, a good amount of the “dimes” in DC aren’t sluts. They don’t have to be. In NY/LA, where there are so many dimes, dimes are a little more slutty because they never know the next time they’ll find/meet a regular guy who will show a decent amount of interest without him getting distracted the very next week by meeting another dime. In DC, dimes are rare, so you need to be a threat on all levels to pull one. You have to have the looks, “swag”, education, nice car, nice job, nice place & culture to be able to thrive in any club/establishment. You can’t just wear a Calvin Klein shirt, True Religion jeans, a degree, and a smile and think that you’re impressive. With this, you are average at best. Dudes with all the attributes that I listed earlier don’t have problems finding beautiful women in DC and they know better than to go to Adam’s Morgan to find them. Good luck in NY, buddy.

I did to undergrad in the Midwest and it was hot chicks left and right. now i’m at g-town university for my masters and it’s more like hot chick to your left then busted bitch on your right and when you look back to your left what do you see? the hot chick leaving because their are 5 dicks creeping on her.

Also any place you go out at night , its ghetto ghetto ghetto.

@ whosyourdaddy

I agree, the night life is not what it used to be so you just have to learn to adapt. There are tons of hot women out here. DC are was named the most fit area in the country (granted that we have a strong military presence which promotes PT, but you get my point).

Just learn to switch up your game guys geez. DC is one of the most international cities in the world with all the embassies and dipsets so if your looking for the easy WGs that you chased in undergrad. They probably already got scooped up by some other un-imaginative, swagless male lol.

All I got to say is “stay thirsty my friends” you can meet women anywhere. If you want the fit minded women go to the friggin gym and keep your eyes open (Try Golds Gym off wilson in Ballston across from Contes) its a good look!

Troller,

you’re talking about Mr. ‘Omega’ picking e-fights and here you are fighting back. you just put urself at his level so your statement will be reflected back to you.

Defending oneself from an unprovoked attack is not the same thing, you stupid faggot.

My point is valid. He is a loser, and exhibited the #1 trait of a man who does not get laid : Going to a Game blog to pick fights with other men.

If those men defend themselves from the Omega, that is appropriate.

If the DC nightlife is the only place where you are going to look for women, then clearly, you aren’t being resourceful and/or creative enough. May I?

10 Places to Meet Women Other Than a Bar or Nightclub: http://artofmanliness.com/2011/03/27/where-to-meet-women/

Even if you’re NOT looking for a relationship, you shouldn’t be looking for attractive women in bars or clubs in the first place, if only for the fact that they might not be attractive OUTSIDE of that environment once the alcohol wears off, the lights are on, etc. The true beauties in DC, inside and out, would never be caught dead in Adams Morgan for no good reason anyway. They’re too busy flirting at fundraising/charity events. Save your money, drop some bucks for a good cause, and they’ll flock to you. When in Rome.

On another note: @ 162. the truth. Are you really earning your graduate degree at Georgetown? Because I’m appalled you still can’t differentiate between their/they’re and its/it’s.

This blog post reeks of bitterness. Sorry that the hot girls in the DC area don’t go for hairy, Arab-looking clowns like you. It sounds like what you’re describing is the pool of girls in DC who would be desperate enough to sleep with you: fat and ugly chicks. So what you’re actually saying is: of the girls who would sleep with me, all are fat and ugly chicks.

Have you even hung out in places like Arlington and Bethesda? Doesn’t matter – none of the girls there would give you the time of day either. And I can’t believe anyone has actually paid you for tips about “game.” Take your hands out of your pockets? Great advice, dude. Those kinds of tips may help Warcraft-playing, chronic masturbators but that’s about it. As you found out, attractive DC girls are not stupid enough to fall for your lame ass pick-up lines.

You’re best bet is if you have to live in DC, which I thoroughly discourage, then find the first good looking girl who isn’t intolerable, and pounce on it. Sure, you’ll be another guy with a girlfriend, but that’s immensely preferable to fucking wildebeests and buffalos.

“The demographics of this area have shifted dramatically where there are so many Asians, Middle Easterns, blacks, and Hispanics that 1/5 of the girls out that night are actually white (and that doesn’t mean they are slim or attractive or single).”

Notice he points out every minority with a capital letter except for blacks. He says that he is not racist. He seems more of a hypocrite if you ask me.

Who is this man that writes through ignorance with poor grammar? And what’s wrong with #8? So what!! Yeah, I’m an over achiever and I’m proud of it. Men like independent woman. To them, hearing women’s accomplishments and proclaiming their independence is like an orgasm on the 1st night without being physical.

At first this was spot on, then I got bored very quickly.

I get it, there’s lots of ugly chicks in DC. You’re not wrong, lots of them are ugly. Then again when you compare it to Miami and LA, what cities don’t have ugly chicks? Ever been to Detroit? Try that shit on for size and then come complain about DC.

In that same way, have you ever actually been to some of these places? Take Miami for instance…yep the girls are all really attractive, Bonus! sadly they are also by and large stupid and unsuccessful.

#10 Admo turns into a ghetto on the weekends…this proves youre not from the area, not because Admo isn’t bad (it is), but because it’s been bad since the 70′s and 80′s…actually previously it’s been much worse, so I dont know what you’re thinking when you say that it’s gets so bad down there at night..what the hell are you doing going out in Admo anyway?

There’s some hits and some misses with this one, but overall, I agree with the sentiment that DC is not a great city for guys unless you fit into one of the following categories of a yuppie, hipster, hoodlum, or political hotshot.

1) DC women, while they don’t have the hotness of chicks in Miami and LA, aren’t the worst. But here’s my issue: decent looking DC women have ego up the roof, even bigger ones than the hottest chicks from places like NYC, LA, and Miami. I can deal with swimming in a sea of ok-looking nerdy and freckled faced girls if they were more friendly, flirty, feminine, and open to confident men showing them some interest, but we all know what happens whenever any guy hot or ugly, alpha or beta, approaches a girl with the DC attitude.

2) The personalities of many people in DC aren’t the most interesting, but that’s not the biggest problem. The biggest problem is that they think they’re hot shit because they’re paper-pushing for some politician and treat shit everyone else who they don’t perceive to be “on their level.”

3) While the nightclub you picked out is hardly accurate of the male/female ratio, there are many things that validate this statement including but not limited to females who are the following: snobby, already taken, insular, stuck-up, racist, ghetto, unassimilated, and/or have a over-inflated sense of worth.

4) To and extent that’s true, if you wanna get laid without a lot of shit tests and bitch shields. But remember that DC is the only city I know where the fat and ugly chicks act like they’re hot shit.

5) I emphasized that point at #1

6) Definitely! Most people who are natives and who aren’t either poor ghetto trash nor rich snobby tools get tired of DC, myself included. In fact, one of the main reasons I went to Western PA for college was just to get away from the DC environment. This also applies to chicks who are good looking and have pleasant attitudes. Also, DC tends to attract tools from either the Midwest or suburban Philly/Boston/NYC/Chicago. If we could only get more non-hickish/racist Southerners and transplants from the Western states, this place would be 50x friendlier. The only reason why people like me are still in the DC area is because Obama doesn’t want to invest in jobs anywhere outside of DC.

7) I sort of have to disagree with that, especially since many of the white girls in DC proper don’t date minorities. But as a black dude who doesn’t fit into the “ghetto role,” it’s even worse! I’m forced to choose between Shaniqua from Southeast or some bluppie tool from HBCU who has a big ego as the white broads in Georgetown. And ironically in DC, the more “liberal” a person is, the bigger the racist they are. I have to go to outer beltway Montgomery and Fairfax counties before I can get some good vibes, and I’m not about to fall for jailbait.

8) This has been expanded on so many times that I still can’t believe that people deny this fact.

9) Even though status-whoring yuppie transplants suck out the character of anything they touch, to be fair, DC proper has NEVER had any character, unless you consider crackhead-infested crime warzons as “character.” The replacing of Chinese Carry Outs and Liquor stores for Paneras and Starbucks is like trading in a old pile of manure for a fresh new pile of manure. Notice what DOESN’t change.

10) Compared to the rest of the nightlife spots, you can say it turns into a ghetto. But there are many more ghetto places to party in DC. And the popped-collar crowd in Adams Morgan is just as annoying as the ghetto crowd. And to be honest, DC nightlife in general is filled with tools of some sort. There’s nearly no spot in DC nightlife where you can just let your hair down and come as you are.

11) And honestly, what is there that really brings them to DC. If you were a hot foreign nanny, where would you want to go to: a city with good looking men, great weather, and party-oriented nightlife, or a city where most men are passive-aggressive nerds, most women show instant jealously, and the weather is mad schizophrenic.

12) This is so true. DC itself is overinflated in every way: from the COL to the women and everything in between. Many people here try so hard to compare DC to NYC, where in reality, it’s more on the level of Boston and San Francisco; nothing against those cities, but I’m just tell it like it is. I think this also stems from the inferiority complex that the women (and city in general) aren’t on the level of those in NYC or LA.

13) Alongside with the incompetence of Metro in the past few years, the fees that are constantly increasing every year that are going to pensions of these Metro employees who get paid six figures to sit in a booth and get uptight when someone asks for assistance, or sit on a train that drives itself yet announce the entire ride in Ebonics. And don’t get me started on having to wait 10 minutes for a train during rush hours and having the system virtually non-existent on the weekends. Sad thing is that Metro (especially Metrorail) used to be the shit back in the late 90s and early 00s, with less wait times for trains at a more affordable cost. You used to pay an average of $1.70 a ride and $5.00 would give you unlimited rides. Now, it cost $5.00 for a one-way trip.

14) The weather indeed SUCKS BALLS! Most of the time, it’s either humid as hell where it would be 90 degrees but feels like 120 (i.e. this past week) or cold as crap with all of the elements of winter but snow! (I love snow, but fuck all of the sleet, ice, and slush shit DC gets). The only time the weather is great is during the rater brief spring and fall seasons.

15) True, and another reason to have shame for being a black male from DC. And they call this the 2nd best place (next to Hoodlanta) for black people. What a crock full of shit! Not all of us are looking for the BET/WSHH rap video experience.

DC is about setting a foundation if you’re trying to ladder up girl talent. I liken it to Alpha Phi chicks: you usually have to bang up the pyramid.

My advice: if you’re new, meet friends through your work/happy hour network.

Live in transplant neighborhoods with good networking (Arlington, U St, Eastern Market).

Leverage the daytime activities in the city (jazz in the park, georgetown weekends, eastern market weekends, dupont circle people watching) and get invited to a house party or two.

-Know which nightlife spots fit your style (are you international? Do ESL on Wednesdays. Are you prep-white? Do Arlington happy hour and Georgetown/GW bars on weekends, are you mad guidesque? Do K Street and bring some $$$).

-Bring girls when you go out; dc chicks have creep shields that get disarmed if you’re in a mixed group being sociable. If you come into a bar as a “PUA” with some shit lines, you’ll get the inflated ego…

-Bar pickup works a lot better in move divey spots imo, club pickup is about how much confidence/sex appeal you can project.

I do empathize with those that are frustrated; have recently had much better weekends in NYC and MTL in terms of talent, but the pool’s big enough to find something to eat.

Roosh is definitely head on. Although a lot of what he says can be interpreted as “harsh”, these are the cold, hard facts of DC women and the DC area.

Growing up in the DMV and residing in Northern VA for the past several years, DC nightlife is completely lame. To the people that disagree I want to ask them: have you ever traveled outside of the US (or even to Austin, SD, MIA, Tempe)?

90% of a girl’s INITIAL value is her looks. This is widely understood around most of the world. That’s why most girls outside of the US take care of themselves, and guys hold them to a higher standard.

DC has become an androgynous hot mess of masculine women and cockfests, this is only getting worse…most venues are filled with dudes and have 6s and 7s, who are socially awkward, and THINK they’re 10s because their is NO OTHER COMPETITION. Go to San Diego, this shit doesn’t exist.

Girls in DMV who have trouble landing a “quality man.” Few simple suggestions:

1. Get off your pedestal, just because you have a a job at booz allen or deloitte doesn’t mean you’re a “catch”

2. Get your makeup and style fixed

3. Be FEMININE

4. Act like a fuckin human being, don’t converse like a methodical, vapid robot.

So please, don’t bitch if you’re still on match.com and worried about your biological clock ticking.

We wont’ date you because clearly as soon as you open your mouth you turn us off. You are pathetic. And by the way, as soon as you start a sentence with ““Without sounding like a racist…” you are admitting to the world what you really are…yes a racist.

Sorry bud but you sound lonely and you need to make a connection or two bc everytime I go to dc. My friends bring out smoking hot girls and we get hooked up everywhere we go. An average looking girl thinks no more of herself then the hottie on the dancefloor. As longs as you know what you’re doing and you’re not an idiot. You’ll be able to bang them. Yes, everyone there has is a bit more on the preppy stuck up side but what did you expect. The top three richest areas are in the suburbs of DC and its been that way for years.

I find this pretty funny coming from a mediocre looking guy (you do know you’ll likely end up with somebody in your league?) and likely has an “illusions of grandeur” issue, measuring from the bombastic style of writing. I know many hot women who don’t act like this. It seems you are trying to statistically pool from the clubbing or bar scene, which has that type of women in whatever city you go to. If you want to meet quality women, sign up for a class, or volunteer, or sign up for a social sport. The women who go out every night are not going to be the “best of the city” type of women.

Women in DC are always much hotter, less bitchy, and easier to game wwhen a Republican is in the White House.
Fat girls, lazy girls, and mancunts flock to DC when a Democrat takes the Presidency.
Young women feel they need men less when the party of welfare, feminism, and federal police land all over that swampy town of marble, mirrors, and mannequins known as DC.

D.C has no natives. Everyone moves here. There is no market for looks. The market is for brains or connections. Those 6 and 7s were begged to come here by whatever company/university/politician/LazyNewMother got them here. The 8s and 9s are impossible to get. They are snatched up for marriage before they ever hit the d.c streets.

To equate cities to visiting a college.

D.C is the ivy league. Smartest women you are going to fine. Great looks undervalued.

NYC, Mia, LA are the big public schools. Huge populations not enough parties to accommodate everyone. Chances are the deck is stacked when you go out.

Can’t figure out what to equate the midwest to. Went to Chicago for a weekend with 10 friends. Met hot chicks working in the Wrigley Townhouses. They got off, showed us around, and were dtf. Can’t compare it cuz I’ve never seen anything like it.

Dear Writer,

I agree with you in many points of your piece, and I used to share that feelings a while ago. But hooking up with 8, 9, 10 in DC is not as difficult as it looks at first.

I am an average looking guy and I do it just about every weekened and I beleive I can show you how to do it as well. It is a 5 week program that I have designed myself, and I have put it to test just once with my roomate and it has been a success.

It is absolutely free, and when I say free I really mean it. Trust me I’m all about the profit but at this point my program has not been finalized and fully tested.

I am from NYC, and while there is a ton of girls here… it is more likely you will run into a 5 or 6 rather than 8 or 9. NYC is the type of city where it is all about status and money. Not a cheap place to live. I am lucky to even live here on my salary.. Fat women live every where. I think people get the wrong idea about Manhattan NYC. I work in the corporate world and it is filled with Fat, unattractive women with money and status. Some New Yorkers especially try to pretend they are artsy and trendy. But it is a bunch bullshit where people really are trying to act different to say to the world they are cool. In reality they suck ass!!! Certain parts of manhattan are very pretentions and can be down right racist. All in all NYC have a fine collection of latina, asian and european women. Every now and then you will find a hot African American, or Morrocan. It is the best place in the world for food in my opinion but that topic can be debated.

After reading some of the posts i have to put my thoughts in.

Gentlemen do not get to preoccupied with looks, Now i am not saying to go shack up with a lady who is 250+ pounds. I am just saying not to be so picky. pussy is pussy!
The vast majority of the women in the world are going to be 5 and 6′s. That is planet earth which we all live on. I think alot of men’s expectations are too high. If you can ignore a women (who is a solid 6) you must not like sex or your a homo. Even if you get a 9 after you bang it for like a year or so, you will become bored with it. Just ask Tiger Woods about his ex wife Elin.

Alot of people in particular women tend to put the bar/night scene down. In actuality it is one the best places for people to meet. After a few drinks both sexes are more open to each other. That is something that cannot be said in a coffee shop or Bed bath & beyond. Most women in coffee shops are not as open(as women would like you to think) It is much harder to strike up a conversation in a coffee shop and your privacy is all out of the window because of the other patrons. In my experience the best way to approach a women and not get shot down. Is if she constantly stares at you or make eye contact. If she cant help but notice you and she is decent looking That should be any man’s signal to go in. 3 instances of staring or looking in your direction should be your que to move in.

I am not saying that is the only way you should approach women. But in my experience I had better luck with being notice. It kinda helps when your 6’2 (BasketBall player look alike) with average game skills.

My advice to women, is men will always be at the bar, clubs, pool halls. Just be safe and dont go to these places alone unless you know the owner or there is people there you can trust. There are some good guys like myself that go to these places, However there can at time be some assholes that go to these places.

[...] All in all, DC still sucks for most men. [...]

August 16th, 2011 @ 11:36 am

Having lived in DC for over three years, I can say without a doubt, this is accurate.

Ultrabar? Ultra-all-dude. Hated it. And what is up with the pat downs, the guards checked me like three times before entering!

Upon moving here, I noticed immediately the quality (or lack of) immediately. My standards were lowered — at first without me knowing it. It wasn’t until I went to Vegas, Chicago, or back to NY that I realized how my standards changed.

Quick story: A girl I dated loved DC. Here, she was an seven or eight, with guys all chasing her. She loved the attention, obviously. Now she is in NY and hates it. In reality, she is only a five or six, with NY showing her true colors. She’s a nobody there.

I also don’t understand why nobody is flirty here. Back in NY, girls make eye contact, give signals, or even initiate. I am moving soon, for sure.

Hopefully, I won’t be such a pervert in a different town now that the quality will go back up (I now have a staring problem when I leave DC).

I totally agree with all of this.
I came to DC to work for a year from San Diego and saw exacally what you are describing . I couldn’t believe it. I thought I was just going to the wrong clubs and restaurants at first. I soon realized that this un-sexy vibe was throughout the whole region. Do girls even know what a pair of heels are?! I saw so many average looking chicks with sun dresses and flip flops it was a joke! The girls that did dress up usually were flat chested, pale, had a bad hair sttyle and had a set of Big pearls around their neck. I guess that’s just the style there. I am so glad I am out of that preppy ass dude heavy town. What a mind fuck! Never thought a big ass city like DC would have so few hotties. All the negative comments about this list seem like they are from girls who live in that area or dudes who are brain washed into thinking their precious DC is wonderful and intelligent but have either moved there from a lame small town or who have to think DC is great because they are stuck there. Believe me I started to get brain washed too. You have to get out and look at things from afar to really understand how lame DC is.

I’ve lived in the dc area most of my life, and while it may not be the same as it once was, its still has plenty of talent! You have to consider that most of the woman are in profssional clothing (including heels) on a daily basis so they arent very anxious to do the same on their days off (even though I like to see heels myself). Plus why the hell wouldnt you want a smart, educated chick that makes her own dam money?!As for the sausage fest comment, there is always more dudes ready to go out and get drunk/party so you just need to find a new place. The big “name” places arent always the best. And saying there is no diversity just makes no sense. You need to know where to go and what nights to go.DMV (dc, md,va if your an idiot)is a melting pot. If you are only going out Fri.& Sat. then thats why you arent seeing anythng diff.!No latin girls??Tsss, dam near half the clubs around here have “latin nights” once or twice a week. Obviously you want only white girls anyway so you need to b hanging out in north Arlington because there is no shortage of them there and its 10 mins. from dc. You and these other idiots are right about one thing though…the girls out here probably haven’t spent all/half of mommy & daddy’s savings on plastic surgery or botox like those west coast manikin’s! Not to mention Cali is one of the brokest states right now!

For one DC girl, you should try to look decent because it shows you have some kind of standards and self-respect. And having a job and money is a separate issue from having a man show you attention. You can’t honestly say you don’t go home and pleasure yourself to thoughts of a man doing it for you. That’s after you polish off that pint of Haagen Daz in the freezer.

The guy that wrote this blog lacks perspective an few items on the list. Every major fucking city in the US has become or is becoming homogenous and filled with boring people. And DC is no different. In fact I willing to bet its the last major city to change mainly because of the drug and crime related activities that had been going on for decades. I completely disagree with number 13. I have been using the metro since I was seven. Its the safes and cleanest train system in the country. How many train system in the country you know have carpet in their train.

DC has plenty of hot women walking around during the day and night. In fact I think DC has a higher concentration of attractive women compare to other major cities in the US with the exception being Miami. But that’s a drug infested city with no jobs. Why do you think everyone leaves Florida to come to DC. Plus Miami was built using drug money.

As far as girls with prince attitude, I don’t put up with that shit.

All the DC defending guys wearing your JC penny outfits don’t have a clue what it’s like in a normal city with hot girls who dress up. You are so brain washed into thinking it is normal to see 1 or 2 semi good looking girls on a Saturday night. Let me tell you It is not normal. Just go to any any any other city, even Baltimore and you brain washed dorks will see the difference. So stop defending your boring ass lame preppy city and get a clue. You keep comparing it to LA, Miami or Vegas and say “these are not real cities or these cities have bad economies or what ever you can reach for to think “DC is not that bad”. I’m saying go to ANY other city of the same size or even smaller and you will see. Even prisoners think their cell is “not that bad” if they have nothing to compare it to. Take a look at the “ugly bubble” after you have left and then let’s hear your opinion.. From the moment you land at Dulles you can tell right away that DC is just a plain government Un-sexy preppy disaster with a touch of a corporate picnic and not one in-style guy or girl for miles.

I 100% agree–I’ve lived in DC my whole goddamn worthless life of 30 years. Every bitch in this city is a goddamn lawyer or works for some uppity bitch company and doesn’t give a fuck about you unless you have 20 phDs from Ivy League Faggot Schools. I briefly went to Georgetown and I had to say that constantly for anyone to begin talking to me, which was bullshit. Fortunately, I’m going to kill myself soon by putting a Remington 1100 12g shotgun in my mouth and blowing my goddamn brains out into the street, so pretty soon I won’t care anymore and won’t have to take five hundred anti-depressants anymore like I have the past 12 years.

I have never been to DC, but have traveled around the world. America and most of western Europe produces manladies who focus on careers not on beauty due to economic demand. You need 2 professional incomes to buy a home these days. That’s the trick played by corporate feminists. They don’t care about helping women, they just wanted women to walk as wage slave just like men JUST TO AFFORD THE SAME DAMN HOUSE.

Having said that, it has impacted American women’s personalities and opened the pandora’s box where they think they can be happy by rising up the corporate ladder. When they hit late 30s with no man and getting fat, no six figure income is goign to overcome genetic predisposition to produce babies and go on some sort of man hunt. I feel sorry for these women and they sound like the ladies you find in DC.

The good ladies, LTR ones are not in big cities. Go to some southern suburbs or eastern european countries. They don’t have this chip on their shoulder. They look good and cook well and will be good mothers. Fuck feminists and corporate chicks and you will have big house but ugly kids and you will cheat later anyway. Get yourself some small town ladies.

Move to Atlanta. Waaaay more single women than men and they are hot hot hot. All different kinds. A stunningly large portion of the male population in downtown and midtown are gay, so you have this big city with all these single women, and only a small segment of straight guys, and an even smaller segment of straight guys with a decent job. My female friends complain about it to me all the time (which bodes Great for guys). If you are a straight guy with something that resembles a steady job and a moderate level of game, there is no way you can lose in Atlanta.

- treat people like garbage unless they need you for something
- talk like valley girls even into their late 20′s
- rejecting you isn’t enough, they have to go that extra 25% to make you feel worthless

The thing is ladies, sincerity and weakness are really just two sides of the same coin. There are women that are weak but also sincere. But women that are insincere? Weak, every last one of them.

Ladies, at least think about this for once. This is an honest assessment.

i got hooked on the eastern european and german girls after dating a few au pairs…and damn, i thought it was just me. that was back in 200-2002 and since then it seems like they’ve disappeared off the face of the earth. i was worried i was just wasn’t hitting ENOUGH shitty house clubs on 18th street.

It’s kind of interesting when we start using the Econ 101 example of supply and demand. I think the economics are actually more dysfunctional. More buyers (men) seems to encourage less selling (by women) and volume (sex). I am not sure most of you and Roosh will agree, but I am not sure young people in D.C. are having as much sex as compared to Brazil or Eastern Europe. It seems the hot chicks hold back their precious gift for the knight in shining armor and some of this attitude permeates down to the average women. It just seems there is more sex in the air when you walk into a Brazilian club with many hot women. Above-average Brazilian girls work very hard to attract the interest of men. This all comes back to roost in the U.S. when women over 35 try to make up for lost time. Their precious gift has an expiration date and who knows how many men they passed up in their youth.

I don’t think that it is a lack of quality of women that plagues DC, but a lack of young women in general. DC jobs are mostly male oriented (engineering, accounting, law). Go out to almost any bar in DC/Arlington on a Friday/Saturday night and it is almost certainly destined to be 65-75% guys. Not very favorable for guys looking to score or even guys looking to just meet women for that matter.

I’ve lived in the area most my life, and while I’d agree with your assesment of the females in the area, it wouldn’t even be on my bottom five things about the area list. The traffic for anybody living in the suburbs is totally brutal…just awful. I can’t belive that didn’t make the list.

I pulled big time one week in DC just by acting like who I am, regular dude from flyover country with some confidence who doesn’t parse his words. I held court at parties and bars and women I merely struck up a rapport with would ask me to escort them to a new locale, either another party or bar. That sort of instant familiarity lead to getting laid every night I went out.

The males there are largely SWPL shoe gazers, likely wussified by feminist indoctrination while collecting degrees. The girls I did hook up with were average looking or slightly above, but I did see a lot of hot women walking around town in the shopping district near my hotel, but not out in bars.

Don’t even try making the chicks jealous, cus you’ll love like pie face!!

Houston is where fat ugly chicks get stand up guys that look like emporio armani models, houston is great for girls, all girls have ” social ” life here

Magically all the girls are ” social ” popular, while guys are easily labeled losers if they don’t meet the girl’s ” social” expecation.

Houston is where good guys get treated like shit and pushed out of the way in the clubs literally by average/fat chicks.

No where else do girls have this much power.

I agree with the last line above. Girly men are the reason females are primadonnas. The girly men and those who salivate over the women enable them to act like kunts. Ignore them and they will change their ways quickly. One of DC’s biggest problems is also a lack of manly, goodlooking guys. Yeah, there are a lot of guys, but no they generally are not goodlooking, nor do they act like real men.

251 Garbage
January 20th, 2012 @ 2:54 pm

It’s funny that many of the posters here mention LA, Austin, and Tempe. I lived in all three before moving to DC for grad school. Maybe I was spoiled before I came to DC or maybe DC really IS Hollywood for ugly people, but I fully agree with the DC sucks assessment.

I’m 31 years old and my two years in DC were the driest since losing my virginity at 15. DC is where men behave like women and women behave like men. The problem is so many there have been brainwashed by feminist propaganda. As a result, they (1) Do not understand (at best) or hate (at worst) men, (2) are more concerned with their careers and themselves, and (3) do not know how to be feminine. Agree with others that women in DC do not know how to flirt or make themselves approachable at all.

Another issue not mentioned is how judgmental people are in DC. If you are interested in anything alternative you will not only have a hard time dating but will just be bored. For example, I’ve got a lot of tattoos and listen to metal. In most of the places I lived before no one would even care, but in DC I would get so much stink eye. That I was earning a master’s degree from one of the best international affairs programs in the world or working a “professional” job would not even occur to them. Interesting that a city DC-philes proclaim is so cosmopolitan, progressive, liberal –whatever – is actually quite rigidly conventional and parochial. And no, I do not have a swastika tattooed on my forehead or a Mike Tyson facial tribal. My work is actually quite…professional. I don’t want to sound pretentious about it, just that it never really was an issue before I came to DC.

Bottom line, yes, DC sucks. There will always be people who try to defend it. To me, the arguments are quite ridiculous. Yes, there are cool places – some refuges from the rampant douchebagery. Honestly though, everything these apologists have pointed out to me is done just as well if not better in other major cities. It can be good for school or work, but is that all that matters in life?

I’ve asked well over 100 women out here and overwhelmingly get the “why are you talking to me?” look, “leave me alone” look, or even the I’m going to size you up and give you a shitty and walk away look. My female friends apologize to me for the way women have treated me here.

Unfortunately it’s to the point now where I just don’t approach women any more. It’s so unpleasant most of the time, despite being a great communicator and great guy, I haven’t had sex in months, and before that, years.

I don’t want to talk abou DC – came across this in my research on where to move next (I’ve been in Seattle for about 6 years) and have a guy friend in there who loves the place. I am a Brazilian woman and some of the comments in here lead me to the understanding that you have no idea about my culture. Many of us are good looking (do not believe Brazil is top model land!) and most of us love to show off our feminine side. Brazil is, unfortunatelly a macho country, with men cheating like crazy and treating women in a very poor manner. The “average” Brazilian woman can be more feminine than many other nationalities and the “do everything to please a man” idea is based on a low self esteem concept that goes on in macho countries like the one I’m from, unfortunately. Because of those comments I might not take this blog into consideration for my moving – the author seems like a poorly informed American boy.

I agree that DC sucks for many of the reasons listed above. I moved here for grad school and can’t wait to leave. But I haven’t had as hard a time dating here as some of the comments above suggest. I think that’s because I avoid the Dupont/Adams Morgan/Euro-trash downtown club scene (if you hang out there you are only going to encounter the upper middle class career obsessed cookie-cutter crowd).

For at least the last 3+ years there has been a burgeoning (though still small) alternative bar scene around U St NW / H St NE. That’s where you find all the more interesting girls (with a tendency towards the hipster/manic pixie dream girl type). The problem is that even these places are now being invaded by the bridge and tunnel collar-popping crowd that give DC the bad name it deserves.

Sorry to hear you had a bad time in our great city. It’s so unfortunate to see losers from their own hometown come here and think they’ll be any different. If you were a loser there, you’ll be one here too. I read all of your bitchin and its obvious you never got laid hence all of the time on your hands for bitchin and pics. My suggestion for you, if you are still here or if you come back, is to find me. I’m a bartender in this great city and hang out. Your perspective will definitely change when you stop acting like a bitchy little chick. The ratio of women to men in this city is 15:1. Clearly you help that ratio for the non bitchy guys. Thanks.

Washington, D.C could be cool but sucks for 2 reasons. Guys here are about as interesting and sexy as looking at paint drying on a wall. Seriously, most of the guys in D.C. are geeks or ugly, average losers believing that somehow they should get the hottest girl of all time. Yes, you may have money but many don’t have sex appeal and the sex…forget about it. It’s just bad all the way over. The second reason is because there are a lot of boring ass white people here who makes everything suck because they are basically plain white vanilla (not like sexy, finger licking good vanilla like Bradd Pitt) and are basically about as interesting as trying to find a needle in a haystack. I am not white but I see a lot of good looking white girls around but most of them seemed to have turned into lesbians because the white guys here as so ugly, boring and sexually inadequate which I bet is why you don’t date so called minority girls in the first place. Actually D.C. sucks for women, the men are just clueless. I’m looking to transplant to Miami or New York.

Also guys here have no cajones. They have poor socialization skills. I’m thinking of starting a new business and giving them classes. Basically they don’t know how to approach or talk to a woman with any kind of confidence. They also do not understand anything about taking it slow and wanting to lump everything in the first date. It’s like yes you may be good at your profession here if you are a guy but at life many of you are deficient indeed at understanding life and woman. Also if girls in other areas are so hot why haven’t you gone there and picked one up. Oh, that’s right because you probably are an ugly loser who just likes to fantasize but can’t get the real thing.

The girls are all fat? You do realize DC is consistently ranked as the fittest or second-fittest city in America? http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/the-buzz/post/dc-is-second-fittest-city-in-the-us/2011/05/25/AGb0MEBH_blog.html

Your desire for #7 and #2 makes #9 ironic and #15 irrelevant. The HIV rate is very racially disparate and the high rate is due to the rate in the black population being high. And the 3/4 of the city that you’re avoiding because it’s too full of scary poor people and minorities isn’t chock full of the Whole Foods and Fancy Overprice Cupcake Shoppes that you bemoan the way white meccas like Georgetown and Old Town Alexandria are.

Decent troll. The secret to DC is finding out what bars are hot with women. In this economy, it’s places close to their school with cheap beer. McFaddens is a great example. Most nights of the week it’s full of packs insecure girls. I can’t go in and sit down without 3 girls all trying to outdo each other impressing me at the same time. Damn, women are mean to each other when they are horny. Helps living across the street. Even places that aren’t supposed to be pickup spots like 51st State are great on a Friday.

This whole area is swamped with a multitude of butt faced hogs that think they are God’s gift because they have a Masters from Cornell. ON YOUR KNEES!!! The good looking one’s are so stuck on themselves I don’t even look anymore. NYC has tons of gorgeous talkative ladies that are fun to get to know. I have to go on vacation to find any quality females. I hate this place!!Headed to NYC for the weekend yee haa!!

I worked in DC as a bicycle courier and I would pick up on secretaries and barristas just by smiling at them on the street. Yeah there are plenty of frumpy women, but those law firms hire some decent secretaries from time to time. If you just sit in your office all day and go to clubs you will never meet the hot women.

Check AU, Georgetown girls as well. Snobby, yes, but if you just want to fuck it works. You need to add some danger to your game and keep it brief. The women there are tired of educated idiots, who think they are the shit. If you can be bold and humble at the same time, while keeping it real about what you want, you will do fine.

Someone above posted that the attractive women are married. That may be true, but their husband has no sex game. They can not go out every night hunting for dick. Meet them at the cafe and be straight up about what you are looking for.

Why even bother with the club?

Full of attention suckers and bitchy 24/7 personalities. Its not just the DC area but also the whole country in general. Women lost their values to their feminine world.

Suburb people are rich, decent and respectful with some young girls but I have never seen more than couple of that type not spoiled and dumb.

And If you came to my town (Los Angeles), you ‘d be the nerd-linger from DC and you better LOVE Mexico!!!!! And Asia. And Africa. Welcome to another big city in America. Get my drift? And you’d be competing with the hottest men in the world who love to surf and wear flip-flops to the opera btw – and I am not even gonna talk to you about the women. NO ROMANCE without FINANCE. But a glowing porno industry and loaded with self-absorbed actresses! Oh yeah, we have got creativity up the wazoo, but “Crazy” loves “creativity”!!!!

Great article and great posts!! This town underwent many transitions. 70′s up to mid 80′s folks were thinner in general, friendly and loose. Only strippers had tatts and thongs. Then the HIV scare slowed things down in the mid80s-early 90′s and TV shows like Designing Women created a very high Big Hair + Thunder Thighs in tights quotient. Not good role models for girls growing up. Then later 90′s and thongs & tatts go mainstream and gent clubs wont hire gal w/tatts. 98 up until the 2008 meltdown this town was rocking. You had money left to drink with after rent or mortgage (no LONGER!) Roosh’s observation is spot on! In ’08 I remember walking to my car and I was amazed to see so many fit dolls between Adams Morgan and M st!! I am not sure what happened. They are gone. Maybe too many free meals from the dudes they meet on the internet dating sites? Why cook when there is always some desperate lonely e-dating dude to pick up an expensive dinner tab?? I’m glad I’m not young any more to have to deal with this crap.

There are tons of hot chicks in DC, even for a well dressed white guy. The thing is they’re not all concentrated/restricted to one small areaa of nightlife like NYC, LA or Miami. No DC doesn’t have the beach or type of industry that attracts mindless hot chicks so you shouldn’t expect it to be on the same level as those small concentrated mecca’s of hot women but you’re misinforming those who’ve never been or lived here to describe it as only Ghetto or Fat Chicks.

Of course the club landscape has changed, what you described about The Park and Play now Midtown and even that picture of Ultra-bar which back in the day was the Bank and Vault next to it, is a simple matter of the suburbs standing up pockets of spots that have given non DC hotties a reason to not go to DC every weekend to party.

The competition has also caused places to relax their dress codes to atract enough numbers to stay open. Only a handfull of clubs have a dress code where women actually have to dress up (Park, Lima, Barcode, K St Lounge, and a couple new spots on K St and I St. Georgetown, Adams Morgan

In the 90′s and early 2000′s DC clubs had a much better talent pool because there was nothing to do in the surrounding suburbs so it was better populated from the entire DC Metro area as well as the chicks who actually live in DC.

Nowadays hotties from Arlington, Fairfax, Montgomery County, PG County don’t have to go to DC which limits the landscape to the government and contractor chicks that live in the city or the college girls from GW, Georgetown, American, Catholic and Howard.

Nowadays you have to know what’s going on in and around the city and where to go to find what you’re looking for. Any club in any city that plays dance music will get a mix of races, this is also true of DC so if you want a White girl experience try U st between 13th and 18th or take a 10 min cab ride to Arlington and hit the Clarendon Ballroom, Clarendon Grill, Mad Rose or Mr Days, all within 2 mins walk of each other.

The gals are big in Britain and Australia too! Many other countries as well because THEY CAN. Being obese does not hinder. Limeys will refer to a fat woman as looking “American” but their own women get huge too. Sorry folks. Roosh is spot on! Divorce laws are based on when the woman was home not working and this sets precedent. I see the kids walking to school all sloppy wearing board shorts and this just adds to the mayhem setting a sloppy benchmark. Bloomberg is right about outlawing the big-gulp! But the talent is always better when there is a Re-pubican in office. The sorry poster excuse is always somebody’s English skills but even with typos and incorrect grammar it is obvious that the truth hurts! All the ethnic injection here is nice because now there’s a variety but their own ethnic community will actually shun their homeys for not marrying a Hindu, fellow Central American or Viet. How many honky Hindus to you know, and when was the last time you saw a Latina or Viet hooking up with a whitebread? Then the Asian gals are all sought after by their own and the local desperadoes. Look at TV and how the Caucasian male is emasculated. The dating sites are basically an eat-out4free club. I am just a casual observer, but this website caught my eye for a valid reason.

7. There aren’t enough cute white girls for white men who don’t want to date minorities.

“Without sounding like a racist, this is what is killing DC nightlife for me. I’m a white dude and I like white girls with a few exceptions here and there. The demographics of this area have shifted dramatically where there are so many Asians, Middle Easterns, blacks, and Hispanics that 1/5 of the girls out that night are actually white (and that doesn’t mean they are slim or attractive or single). Because so many people work for the government some way or another and make decent money, there is no income segregation and all the races party at the same places. There is a shortage of white girls and girls from Latin American countries like Brazil or Argentina.” #

While the western side of the state has a sizable Asian population, the east side is glaringly white. For myself, I like a little more diversity – and I’m not just talkin’ about the human element. I like Chinese food prepared by Asians, not crackers, etc., etc. I have to cross the freakin’ border to get Indian for godsakes. Just ain’t right!

The girls who do like them it is for the money and for what my white girlfriends tell me, some of you actually are on the low end when it comes to your stuff. But if you are looking for white women mostly, then I guess a city like Boston would be great for you.

Trust me when I tell you, the white girls who were born and raised here are NOT the same as the stuck up chicks who move here and feel they have something to prove. I’m not going to say I’m a supermodel, but let’s just say I don’t have any issue in the man department. However, most guys are intimidated by me and will never speak to me, and I work out 6 days a week and compete in figure competitions, so I KNOW I’m not a heffalump! Maybe if more ‘white guys’ had some balls to approach the good looking women, we wouldn’t leave! All other races and ethnicities will approach me, but not white guys, even if I give them ‘the eyes’ and they give them back. I don’t discriminate against any ethnicity to date; I will date black, white, purple, or indifferent, as long as I like them and they like me back! The ‘white guys’ around here are stuffy, boring, and have the personality of a grape for the most part, but when I find a fellow fitness buff, like myself, they tend to either be gay or so self-absorbed that they would probably spend more time looking at themselves rather than me. Being around bodybuilders everyday may make my standards a bit higher, as far as looks go, so most white guys around here DEF do not measure up because all they do is drink and ‘party’, which makes them unfit and sloppy (yet rich). LOL PLEASE tell me where all of these HOT, down-to-earth, fun, smart, fit, tall, and funny white guys are…..haven’t met but a few here and I was born and raised in DC and all that move here are the SAME EXACT way you described the ‘white girls’ in your rant.

I am a woman that has lived in DC for 20 years. I am hot. Roosh is correct. I am 5’8″ brunette and a size 6. I am now over 40 so I am not in the same market as the younger people on this board but I TAKE CARE of myself and look 30. The problem is you boys screw the fat women and give them a false sense of confidence. The fat chicks get aggressive with the hot chicks on the social and work scene. It is a pain in the ass to go out and try to meet men whilst some hagaan daas bitch is blocking you out.

Whilst I have lived here I moved down to atlanta for a year and lived in england visiting milan and berlin. I am well traveled. Women are far more sophisticated in other areas. I have worked for PWC, Accenture, National Geo, etc. But now I am a bartender. I get so much shit from men who are only looking for the fat blonde with the college degree. You guys did it to yourselves for putting up with this behavior.

Last boyfriend dated me and I found out he had three other women on the side – all fat mean blonde chicks. He refused to give them up because he was “playing the field.” He was a bald slightly pudgy executive. Well so not he has hit fat blondes and the slim little brunette is gone. Typical of DC men. So typical. At least some guys are aware of the stupid lame game the dating scene is in DC. I confess in the summer time when I am at the grocery store I do wear flops but I am not out trying to impress anybody. I would not pick up a guy in a grocery store. It indicates they eat too much.

Like the one guy said on this board. Find the pretty girl and stick with her. You don’t fuck the fat chicks and they may just chuck out the hagan daas and start asking the hot chicks how to dress better instead of running them off

As a mid/late 20′s indian-american guy, in my experience, traditional nightlife in DC is horrific. Social circle dating, athletic activities, gallery/cultural events, are much much better to pick up at. Day game is everything in DC.

From a macro perspective women outnumber men in DC but they do have an inflated self worth and they are much more narrow minded in their dating tastes compared to their counterparts in other major metros. So the women complain they aren’t landing a self-selected small pool of unattainable guys compared to their standing and the guys complain that the vast majority of women are of terrible quality.

That said, DC is a much better a place in my experience compared to somewhere like Philly (discounting student/college girs).

As a woman who was born and raised in DC and now lives in CA let me just say that the men aren’t that attractive either. Perhaps what you consider attractive in yourself may not be as attractive as you perceive yourself to be in the vacuous, supermodel hotties you desire. If you are bald, fat , or unattractive maybe you should adjust your standards and if you share this attitude you could afford to grow up a little as well.

That or you could perhaps subject yourselves to the same painful beauty rituals that women put themselves through to make themselves more attractive to you. I swear there are men out there crying for more attractive women who could honestly be more attractive if they took better care of themselves. If you are a man looking for a woman who works out 4 hrs a day for that hot body you want but you’re a couch potato with nothing concrete to offer, please stop lying to yourself.

If you aren’t, then maybe it’s your personality that’s driving women away. Maybe you’re shallow. Maybe you’re immature. Maybe you lack self confidence. You see guys women are people. They have feelings, desires, and different qualities will attract different women. But women will most always be turned off by shallow men or immature men with unrealistic expectations.

Having moved to CA recently (Bay area) it’s a relief how much more mature the men are out here.

Also I lived in Sweden. No, moving to Sweden will not guarantee you more girls :). Especially if you’re that immature.

“I don’t know one guy from DC who is married to a girl from this area where I thought to myself ‘Wow, good for him, that’s a nice pull.”
Maybe they got married out of love – although I know that’s too radical a concept for this website!

Certain neighborhoods and people in DC do suck ass, but I find that places around DC are more layed back. Like Montgomery County, MD has a pretty good mix of young women who are easy to bang. Don’t care too much for Northern Virginia, just a bunch of closet libertarian freaks who care about appearance and status. DC Northwest like Columbia Heights, Howard University and friendship heights are alright neighborhoods but Dupont Circle is just like the Marina District in San Francisco (bunch of white, spoiled bitches who think they are the shit). Good thing East Coast states are close together so I can go visit a more eclectic city like Philly or NYC….

If you need to blog about what you perceive to be the shallow unattractive girls in DC, you should take a look in the mirror. I hope you have luck finding a girl who finds you as fascinating as you find yourselves.

Lol the guy that wrote this must be a complete douche bag! I have lived in DC most of my life and there are absolutely gorgeous women. And the only reason that girls are so called “status whores” is because they are trying to move up the career ladder too. This guy wouldn’t know a beautiful successful girl if she slapped his pathetic face. He must only be attracted to loser, non ambitious girls

I friggen adore this post! like… it seriously sums up what I was unable to express about my feeling about DC in really concise way. Bravo.

While I lived in DC from 07-09 (apparently its hey-day)I agree with:

“A ton of status whoring, fake people, degree chasers, one uppers, the ‘I care less than you do’ crowd.” #

“First conversation starter is always “What’s your job?” Lame just lame.” #

“DC women are very superficial… they are sizing you up to see how you can benefit them and their career. People live to work in this city… they all will have law degree’s, mba’s or some silly phd and they will make sure that’s the first thing you know about them. They’re gonna be looking at your clothes, car, and all the other dumb shit they use to measure you”

it the most pretentious city I have ever lived in.

I did see and lived with many “high matintenance” ultra skinny, went joggin w make up on attractive women, but honey, if you weren’t shelling out on Moet or offering them a job in gov’t you were SOL.

I basically was a by-stander to all this, waiting for grad school to end so I could bus it back to NYC.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this post. I worked in gay restaurtant in Dupont, spent my time w that community, those clubs. Unadulterated fun wo the pretention.. best coping mechanism I could come up with.

I’m a hot chick and have to say that the quality of men in DC sucks, too! Can we say, “douche bags with zero personalities and 19-year old frat-boy mentalities?” I wish we had more emo-types wearing straight jeans and cool hair- maybe I would date.

Damn! I thought Atlanta was bad! In Atlanta, pretty white women seem reserved for the working men WHO MADE IT, not the working man trying to come up. If you’re a Falcons, Hawks, or Braves player, or at least a millionaire, you’re a catch and guaranteed a woman. Being a single working man who’s not successful is never good.

No this isn’t Miami (duh!) and some would say the Capitol of the free world, so are you really surprised if everyone is overworked? DC is a place where people come to make it, like LA without the glamour.

But if you don’t know where to find pretty 20-something’s, you clearly don’t have game at all. Try the gold cup horse races in the spring… 20 something’s get smashed on fruity drinks while wearing pretty sundresses…. I mean does it get easier? Plus they probably rode a party bus out there… Just saying. If you had female friends they would tell you this!

And yes, there are hidden list-only bars in Georgetown. If you had to write this article you probably aren’t invited. So yeah, the prettiest girls arent even available to you because you probably arent on the list. if you are a guy and you think a crisp shirt and flashing some pearly whites are going to get you anywhere in this city, forget it – everyone here is smart, even the pretty girls, so you had better be as smart as they are and you had better have something to offer because the girls probably make more money than you do too.

As for the pictures, only tourists eat at Georgetown cupcake – they aren’t even good. DC residents are busy at their yoga / Pilates studios. And yes guys do and are fairly successful if they ask out women at yoga studios.

No self respecting woman of any color would go to Ultra bar…. What a dump. It’s like saying there are too few women at a barbershop. I mean come on… There are plenty of trendy bars but bars army the place for meeting women here. If you don’t know day game this is the wrong city for you.

DC sucks for single women, too. Mostly because guys like you are too busy stereotyping and trying to pick up trashy, overly made-up whores in bars to notice that there are smart, attractive, down-to-earth single women all around you.

And sure, I have standards, but you don’t have to be a walking resume with more degrees than a thermometer to get my attention. Maybe all of the eyerolls you’re getting simply have to do with you being a douche, have you ever thought of that?

LA and NYC are far more entertaining than DC. No question about it. However, DC does have some good qualities. Girls here are pretty stuck up, so I’ve stopped going out with the sole purpose of getting laid. I’ll go out to have fun with my friends and that’s about it.

Here’s my advice:
1) Girls here are jealous as FUCK. Walk into a bar with your best bro, and you’ll get no pussy. Walk into the bar with two girl friends, you’ll be eye-fucked the whole time. Once they find out you’re not with them, it’s like shooting fish in a barrel.

2) DO NOT give any decent girl the time of day. DO NOT stare, DO NOT make direct eye contact. In fact, if I see a girl eyeing me, i’ll ignore the shit out of her for like 20 minutes then make a move. I did this two weeks ago at a bar on 14th street and ended up banging the girl at her place.

3) Have a good job. If you don’t, make some shit up. If it’s anything creative…well, good luck. Say you’re a Creative Director at an advertising agency….anything that conveys power…these girls have serious daddy issues.

4) Say you’re from out of town…this usually works pretty well, they’ll see you as a breath of fresh air because everyone hates it here.

In conclusion, treat them like dirt and they’ll stick to you like mud. Unfortunately, thats the only way to deal with the bar girls out here.

I agree that DC sucks for men. Women here are very shallow yet date ugly men. I go out dressed well, don’t have a lame government job, fit, and yet most women give their attention to ugly guys who can’t dress and are just totally boring. I do think there are a lot of attractive women here though. However, it seems a lot of women try to date way up or way down. There is no middle ground in this city from what I have seen. Plus, if you have a sense of humor and type A personality in this city you’re screwed.

Bro -

Moved there from LA to finish school in 85. It was just as you desc back then! I just went celebate and worked my ass off. Despite wanting to stay on, DC was no place for me. Women were plain, slobby, conformists, laddecliming, attention whores. Just plain fat and ugly.

People in general were totally conformist. I eas often slagged for being from S CA. As if my opinion was lightweight and insignificant.

Clubs were shit at the time. Even now sell out 930 could never book decent bands. Far cry from early 80s LA scene.

Then there are all the gays, fuck even my roomate came out on me.

I had to leave…went back to LA then went abroad to Asia. Been here more ot less 20 yrs. US is so boring, done, unhip, uncool, going nowhere – and that was in early 2000s.

Fuck all you conformist DC fucks, you are the reason the nation has so many problems. You are shitty weekend hipsters – YOU HAVE BECOME YOUR PARENTS.

I live in Fairfax and I have to agree. I really think DC would be great if it combined the best of DC (the cool government jobs, colleges, important people, events, museums) with the nightlife and beauty of somewhere like LA. I guess you can’t have it all.

Thank goodness that Dulles airport is nearby and quite good so I can travel to real cities in Europe, I also find European girls like to work out more which is nice

Also amazing how much anti-white racism is in these comments. Yikes, not something I knew about DC.

Pretty damn obvious this fool has spend maybe a month or two in DC and only hung out with like minded douche bags at douche clubs like Ultrabar. Hot women don’t go there because they don’t want to get hit on by slimy 30k wannabe millionaires that smell like Axe such as our author. Hey sorry nobody was impressed with your journalists equal to a mc job, maybe getting a personality and toning it down on the racism might help. Nobody here wants to listen to your ignorant shit. I find the only people who hate this city are the ones who can’t hack it. It’s not for wimps and you can’t be an idiot and get away with it unless you’ve been elected by other idiots. As for alternative culture some of you complained about lacking? Uh we gave the world hardcore punk. Henry Rollins, Dave Grohl, Bad Brains, all still rocking out in this city. I was born here, raised here and worked here, but I’ve been all around this country and some parts of the world. If you have a bad time, it’s on you.

The dating market is going to suck for any guy, regardless of location, who rates women on that juvenile numbers scale* and acts as if less attractive people deserve less from their loved ones.

*Using that scale is basically the same thing as shouting “I’m insecure about my penis and I blame it for the reason that no one wants to date me and I take out my disappointment on women by critiquing their looks in a way that would infuriate me if turned around!”

Try something else, dude. Like loving women, maybe.

1) I disagree with this. The women in DC are far more attractive than the men here. I see plenty of fit and fashionable women in DC. Unfortunately, the majority of women in DC are flaky, unfriendly, unapproachable, and have type B personalities. A bartender once said so many people are dull here because they were the nerds in high school and now feel they’re cool since they work on the Hill but lack the social skills to be extroverts out in public.

2) I do agree with this. The people in this city are so dull and unfriendly for the most part. Again, they were nerds growing up and now think they’re cool or never learned proper social skills to have a successful social life. Also, the people in DC are the flakiest I have ever met.

3)I’m not so sure about this. I’m not a clubber but when I go to the bars it seems the women outnumber the men and I have no problem meeting women in this city at all. A lot even start chatting me up.

4) Nobody is forced to lower their standards. Their are tons of attractive women in DC. Some just lack a decent personality and are very flaky. There are tons of bad ones here but there are also tons of good ones (I hope).

5) I don’t agree with this at all. I have met several attractive women here who don’t have attitudes. I have yet to meet a princess actually.

6) This is just ridiculous. Granted, this is not a fashion forward city but the population has grown 17% here in DC the last few years and I find it hard to believe they are mostly unattractive, lame people.

7) ???

8) I haven’t come across this yet. I find it hard to believe women chase guys who work on the Hill making very little money in a lame job. I haven’t met these kind of women. People do ask what you do for a living a lot when they first meet you which is lame. I always call them on it and they laugh. :)

9) I don’t agree with this at all.

10) Adams Morgan is a playground for people in their early-mid 20′s. Other than that I haven’t run across any thugs.

11) Who cares? Do you want to date a nanny?

12) It is very expensive but I haven’t found the women to want to be treated like princesses or models. They’re just lame for the most part.

13) The Metro isn’t bad at all. I ride it regularly and there have been very limited issues since I’ve become a regular Metro commuter.

14) The weather isn’t bad at all. I’m from MA and it is much worse there.

15) I don’t know about this statistic.

The thing about DC is that it is full of timid, unattractive and boring men who don’t make that much money. Maybe the sex ratios at particular bars are bad (I’ve never been to Rumors, and can’t imagine going), but relative to other cities your odds are pretty good with any random hot chick due to the weak competition. NYC has much hotter girls, but I’ve always had more luck in DC since the quality of men is much higher in NYC as well.

Assuming what has been discussed here pertains to DC itself I agree, the women suck. However if you extend your range a bit farther out, say beyond Arlington and Old Town and into Fairfax you’re more likely to meet women with more of a southern vibe. Southern belles who have been raised to have a sense of style and charm, who care about their looks, and are generally more friendly and interesting and fun. Nova isn’t southern like Richmond or Charlotte but you can find enough of that aspect in certain places to make you realize how lacking DC is in quality women.

I grew up here in DC which I call the dump. I then left after college and attended grad school on the west coast. what a difference from the women. You did not have to be a stud to get a good looking women who would support you out there. I knew a guy that was a park ranger that was dating a law student from UCLA. Women are so much better out there and pretty much anywhere else. I travel a lot as well. NYC, Miami, Scottsdale Az, Dallas pretty much all of the tight cities. They make DC look like garbage. This article is right on the money. If you never live anywhere else but DC area, then I feel sorry for you. You have no idea how much better life can be with women. Don’t try to convice yourself that other parts of the country are just as bad they are not. Women in DC see men as one giant ATM and that is it. Bar none, it has the ugliest women in the country. The men have some blame here as well. Too many goober nerds who let these chubbly wubblies get away with their behavior. If you are not a total nerd or goober, go west young man, or go south and find a good woman. Stay here and get one of these women, and kiss your good life goodbye. Also this is not a recent change I have seen this go one for over 20 years in this area. It NEVER gets better only worse over time.
