For DC, they sum it up just fine:
"D.C. is a city of overachievers, a place where your drinking buddies work at the Department of Defense, think tanks and human rights organizations. Its energy comes from being at the center of things, politically and also socially -- a combination of northern earnestness and southern charm. And everything that makes D.C. great is heightened during a presidential election year. What makes D.C. a top city for guys is the influx of superior dining and nightlife over the past few years, in addition to the massive pre-existing cache of monuments and attractions that captivate both locals and tourists."
They kinda just threw in superior dining and nightlife as an afterthought. If you like politics and overachievers, yes, DC is a great place. Also "southern charm"? Are you fucking kidding me? DC is like NYC, get the fuck outta my way!
Remember this is top places to visit. I agree Americans should visit DC at least once but after that, meh.

Yeah DC is more like:
Northern Charm and Southern Efficiency.
I think someone famous said that once. Not a G Manifesto original.

Wow. DC is ranked over NYC. I never knew I was so lucky.
Sidenote: Has anyone tried that Flea Market at Eastern Market?

Does Roosh agree that Copenhagen is home to some of the world's hottest people?

Proud to see Melbourne come in number 10 without a trace of any other Aussie city on the list. The whole "World's Most Livable City" title is only applicable for those interested in the traditional marriage-mortgage-kids route though.

Lol @ London. LOL @ San Francisco. LOL @ Copenhagen. Hahaha @ DC and most importantly, I laugh at Mumbai.
This list is pure crap. How about Moscow or St. Petersburg?
BCN, yes. STO, yes. NYC, big yes.

DC over NYC is absurd. NYC has energy you can feel and is alive at all hours. DC is a ghost town downtown after 6 pm. Who is trying to give DC this undeserved boost? It must be some secret 5's and 6's that want to lure international men here.
DC is the perfect place for borderline attractive girls: lots of powerful men with no game who will give them undeserved attention.
I have seen 8's and 9's in DC, but they appear every 75-100 women or so (at least during the day).

My favorite is No. 23: Stockholm
"Because it is the next Copenhagen"
If only they read Roosh, they could save some embarrassment, because two up on the list is:
No. 21 Copenhagen
"Because it's home to the best restaurant in the world -- and some of the hottest people, too."
Lol. Who writes this shit and why is anyone compelled to take this bullshit spread seriously. No thanks. I've read Don't Bang Denmark.

I have noticed that ever since Obama took office, there have been tons of DC Hype pieces out there.
But here is the question I have for the DC heads that I have never understood:
We all know that DC's economy is one of the best in the country, arguably the best.
People have money there.
So why doesn't this attract hot gold diggers and hot high class escorts to that city?
You would think the city would be teeming with them.
I mean it's not like the guys in DC are swooping massive amounts of fly civilians.
It is the perfect place for it: frustrated guys with money and a atrocious local female population.
Are girls just too stupid to go there?
Is DC just so wack that it can't get anything right? Even supply and demand?
Is DC just so wack that hot girls won't go there no matter what? Even if they are making money?
Is there some kind of screening process to get into DC that we don't know about that screens out all the hot girls before they get there?
What gives?
Any DC heads have any insight?

DC is the most affluent metropolitan area in the nation by average income, which is 75K a year if I am not mistaken. But the culture here values modesty and frugality. Display of wealth is somewhat frowned upon. You won't see many outrageously expensive cars, well-off people wear clothing from the same store as low-level clerks, etc. It is very low key.
Premium value is put not on the appearance but on the pedigree, title and education. The DC mentality is that of Mark Zuckerberg -- plain jane with medical degree does better than a leggy blonde whose only career prospect is digging for gold.

Always remember...these lists aren't compiled from a player perspective. They're written more from a tourist perspective. The criteria for what makes the list is also different for almost every city. Some of these are mainstays on these kinds of lists. For others, you can see they made it because there's about to be some kind of huge world event, and the city is changing in anticipation. For others, it's the whole "up and coming" thing that got it on the list.
What I don't really understand is why the "lad mags" like Maxim, Stuff, FHM etc. don't do a real, hardcore, best cities to get pussy-type list. Sure, they're mainstream mags per se, but their demographic is young males that are trying to fuck, and they do have pieces on how to pick up chicks, etc. They also incorporate raunchy comedy, so it all plays to their readership. Many of the cities on this list were already on my "hope to visit" list anyway, not so much because of women, but because of the sights, cuisine, events etc.
