Unfortunately, I agree. I've had significantly more trouble dating in Silicon Valley than anywhere else I've lived. In fact, that's why I'm moving to NYC. Using dating apps as evidence:

On the east coast:

- I get 5x as many matches.

- Most of my matches respond to my openers.

- My matches are significantly higher quality.

- My matches suggest meeting up for dates.

- My matches compliment me.

- My matches never unmatch me.

The whole silicon valley gender skew seems like a bad situation for everyone involved. But I'm not sure what can be done about.

I suggested the old-fashioned method because it does no harm. My only issues with the orgies described in the article is there seems to be quite a bit of consent-through-manipulation.

NYC is probably the optimal case, since it's been known for years that it's one of the few places where there are more single women than single men. In some areas, many more single women. In other words, it skews the exact opposite way from SV.
