I voted for Los Angeles. There is so much diversity here that its not difficult to find attractive women here. Having said that, there are attractive women in just about every major city.
thank you. i love the way northerners try to pick on southerners about our foods and then turn around and scarf down one of those big, greasy, 700 calorie slices of pizza they love to brag about
Southerners swear people from up north cant cook. I know people(my mother) that can cook better than anybody from the south. The average nyer doesnt exist on a diet consisting of pizza

The bolded statement above is obviously subjective. It is my opinion that my mother is the best cook in the world!
BTW, many southerners do not eat fried foods daily! Many of us know how to control what and how much we eat (My snack currently is Raw Sunflower seeds from DeKalb Farmer's Market and my lunch was a small salad).
She doesn't have a point! She is just moving her gums as usual.
Anyway, it is funny that people from up North will say that Southerners feast on Pizza and fried foods, yet they can't go without having Pizza, Bagels, and Pasta. I am starting to smell a conspiracy here.
People do not rely on cars to get around in the northern cities. People in northern cities walk WAY more than they do in most other cities in the country.

Coming from a black family, my mother didnt just cook soul food. My mother cooked spanish dishes, italian dishes etc.Thats some ny sh>t. Southerners dont do that.

I know a Jamaican woman back in NY who I used to work with. She made the VERY good italian food. Better than most italians I know.

a lot of them haven't even heard of it. i remember the first time my gf (from the south) had a beef pattie. she was scared to eat it.
*edit*
and she can cook her butt off. never had a female in my life cooking for me the way she does. she can do the seafood stuff but international stuff like what we're talking about? na.

we walk it off, tho.
(generalization here)
you guys walk from the house to the car in the garage outside of the house/parking spot outside of your apartment.
we walk from the apartment to the:
a. train station, and we have to walk down/up stairs before we get on the train.
b. bus stop, usually to walk even farther to take the train, so go back to A.
c. cab to take the bus/train.
then we have to walk up/down the stairs then walk a ton of blocks to get where we have to go, usually.
we are on our feet for a long, long time during the day in comparison to ppl in the south.
we don't eat as many fatty and/or fried foods and we exercise by walking a lot more than you guys do.
*edit*
another common myth is that we don't cook, we don't have access to fresh fruit/vegetables, etc. but that stuff isn't necessarily true, either.
