It is, in some ways, a sign of where we are now most likely to see people we don’t know in various parts of the country.

One could say the places listed are sad. "What ever happened to <insert social setting>?". You could take it as evidence that we are becoming less social, and withdrawing into our own shells.

It’s also a sign of male loneliness or romance: men seeking to find a possible love-mate outnumber women 86 – 14.

How is this not sad?

That's probably more a side effect of socialization that teaches men to take the active role.

Or, the result of Feminism, which teaches women to take the active role.

Feminism doesn't teach women to take the active role. It teaches them to hate men.

To be clear, I think women should be treated equally under the law. I'm a big supporter of natural rights. Feminists are not big supporters of natural rights. They are generally leftists, and the truly intellectually dedicated members are generally far leftists.

Yup, no way that that comment would ever start a flame war. Anyway, I might as well get us kicking off. So, how exactly does feminism teach people to hate men?

[davidtanner]

Feminists are generally leftist and the more intellectual the more progressive/far left, generally speaking.

However I know some women that are intellectually dedicated feminists and they don't hate men. They love men. They hate the patriarchy.

[javert]

There is no patriarchy. This is a good example of the reality distortion that happens in feminism.

Yes, women may have a slightly harder time rising in a company. Just like who is less attractive, or less good at socializing, or isn't a fan of the same sports team as others in the company.

Take it to Reddit, dude.

Lots of people that meet in more traditional settings probably go far enough to either exchange info or not bother.

There's also the part where they only used 100 listing from each state. That's a few days worth, enough to be pretty sensitive to the day of the week that the data was gathered.
