Beautiful people August 7, 2006
Posted by Niels in : Personal , trackbackI went to People last night. I don’t know what was going on, but I have never been in a bar with so many attractive men and so few attractive women. It wasn’t the 3 to 1 ratio of guys to girls that struck me. We’ve got that in San Francisco. But I swear, every guy there was a 6-foot tall, 200-lb muscular man mountain with chiseled male model good looks.
Talking about this later with my friend Deepthy, she reminded me of New York’s 50% rule. A lot of clubs here won’t allow your group in unless it’s 50% female. I couldn’t believe it when I heard it first. So if you want to go to a bar to meet girls, you’ve got to find them somewhere else first, then take them to a bar so you can go meet girls? That’s insane.
It’s a bit like slashing prices. First one bar does it, then another bar does it, and finally everyone has to do it or risk being the only bar in town completely populated by guys. As Deepthy points out, People doesn’t have that rule, and I won’t be going back to it. Next weekend I’m heading to the meatpacking district. If I’ve got to compete with male models, I want a hot celebrity to show for it.
